Scale down or remove sharing buttons from blog summary page

    Hi, the sharing buttons are not showing properly on my blog summary page – the page where only part of the blog is shown and you click “read more” to go into the blog page.

    I figured this may be due to the theme I have, that squashed the icons up, so they only show circle and not the image in the middle.

    I would like to fix this by either:
    -removing sharing buttons from the summary page. Viewers can share inside individual blog posts, or

    -scale down the icons.

    Hope someone could help here.
    Thanks.

    Could you go to Settings > Sharing in your dashboard, and make sure the buttons are enabled on Pages as well?

    Let me know if it helps.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Maybe I should have attached a link to my website:

    You can see the sharing buttons didn’t show up properly.
    Is it possible to make the buttons smaller?
    If not, I would like to remove them from this page only.

    Thanks.

    Could you let me know what your Sharing settings are, under Settings > Sharing? Are sharing buttons enabled for archive pages and pages there?

    You can also remove the buttons from all but single posts there, under the same setting section.

    To change the look of the buttons, like their size, you can use CSS. You can add that CSS to your theme stylesheet, or to your custom CSS editor available under Appearance > Edit CSS in your dashboard.

    Hi Jeremy,

    I only have posts and products ticked in settings>sharing.

    Could you please be more specific about the CSS? like which header would I use to adjust the sizes?

    Thanks

    Could you enable Pages as well? That should solve the issue with the sharing icons.

    Something like this could help, for example:

    .sharedaddy .sd-content ul li a.sd-button:before {
	font-size: 32px;
}

    Hi Jeremy,

    Thanks for your help. Sorry I didn’t understand your instruction in the first place.

    Is there a way to disable the sharing button on certain pages? (I didn’t want sharing for most of my pages)

    Thanks

    Yes, you can disable Sharing on specific pages thanks to the sharing meta box appearing below the Page Editor on each page:
