    I guess it would help if I gave you my site: https://www.littletechgirl.com

    Looks like no form in the footer. As noted in the readme:

    https://alexking.org/projects/wordpress/readme?project=share-this

    If your theme does not include a wp_footer() call, you will need to add the akst_share_form template tag to your footer manually:

    <?php akst_share_form(); ?>

    or add the

    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    tag to your theme footer.

    i did do that, and all it did was literally stick that form IN the footer of my page, and the pop-up still did not work.

    I have put it back again so that you can see it if you refresh.

    Here is my footer as it stands now:

    <div id=”footer”>

    <center><!– Start Bravenet.com Service Code –>
    <script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://pub44.bravenet.com/counter/code.php?id=390516&usernum=3770885924&cpv=2″></script&gt;
    <!– End Bravenet.com Service Code –></center>
    <h2 class=”hide”>Site info</h2>

    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    @littletechgirl:

    Your theme you’re currently using, at least at the time of my post, is not lodaing the prototype.js. Make sure that prototype.js is uploaded within your wp-content/js/ folder or add it manually to your header.php file and point it to where its located on your server. If you’re unsure how to do this, I can attempt to walk you through it.

    Prototype seems to be the issue you’re having, let’s start there and let me know.

    Also, the thing you added is outside of the footer div. I don’t know if it matters… just mentioned ??
    (some PHP guru might tell whether it matters or not)
