    Hello, I just started using the plug in today. I am not sure the social count recovery is working for me and I am wondering if I have it set up correctly.
    I had 2 important changes that I made
    Http to https:
    And
    I used to have the date in my posts but have removed it to have only the post title
    I am hoping to recover counts from both of these. Is that possible or do I need to pick one?
    Thank you.

    Hello,

    It’ll be easiest to just stick with recovering http for now:

    a2a_config.counts = { recover_protocol: 'http' };

    (To make it work, just remove the additional recovery code you currently have after that line.)

    By following the example at the bottom of the share count recovery doc, a developer could write a custom recover function to additionally recover counts for your old URL structure by parsing the post’s published date in the HTML.

    Themes expose the published date in HTML in many different ways, which is why this kind of URL structure recovery needs some custom work per site.
