    @jeremyers1:

    From the addthis dashboard, please select the second button from the option Show Share Counts and update.

    If its not the issue, please post your blog url.

    Yes, that gets individual share count for each sharing button, but not the total share count.

    This is not my blog, but it shows what I want:

    See how she has a total share count and not just individual share counts for each button?

    My url is here:

    Sorry to say that this kind of share button is not currently supported in the dashboard. We will consider this in the coming release.

    You can place this manually by adding the following code into your theme file.

    <div class=”addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style” data-title=”<?php the_title(); ?>” data-url=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>”>
    <a class="addthis_button_facebook"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_twitter"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_email"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_print"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
    <a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>
    </div>

    Thanks. I have done this.

    But now I have noticed that on many of my old posts, the total share count is 0, even though there were numerous shares on these posts. Does AddThis only count shares that have happened after AddThis was installed?

    Here is an example:

    https://www.tillhecomes.org/title-my-next-book/

    The count shows 0, but if you look below the post at my old share buttons, they have a total of 10 shares.

    @jeremyers1:

    Yes, you are right. They will only be shares that occurred through our tools, as we don’t import the share counts from each respective service into our analytics API endpoint.
