Total Share 0000 being posted in Excerpts/Facebook

  • When posting an article to Facebook or within a Recent Posts area on the site, the excerpt displays “Total Share 0000” at the beginning of the excerpt. Is there a fix to prevent this from happening?

    It isn’t wrapped in any code otherwise I would have had a way to isolate it on the website. Though that doesn’t help with posting to Facebook.

    Any help you could provide would be appreciated.

  • Can you please provide me any live link to check the issue.

    Many Thanks

    I am seeing this also .. if I deactivate the plugin the zeros are removed.

    I haven’t got the share number turned on and I am using the hover right version of the bar.

    I’m having the same issue.

    FYI I was able to fix this by hacking the plugin file: /plugins/social-share-button/themes/icons-body.php

    These are lines 72 to 79, note the line $ssb_count[$icon] = ”;

    if(empty($ssb_post_sites[$icon]))
  {
    $ssb_count[$icon] = '';
  }
else
  {
    $ssb_count[$icon] = $ssb_post_sites[$icon];
  }

    The side affect is that the sharecount completely disappeared, which is desirable in my case. A better fix is in order…

    Thanks – I will test thst out.

    Hi same issue here!
    How can I get to the Plugin file so that I’m able to edit it?
    Do I need via FTP or is there another way, possibly from the WP Dashboard?
    TNX!

    I found it and replaced the text, but nothing happened.
    My website is https://www.bullismoonline.it

    Why not try something like this?

    <?php echo '<p>' . substr(get_the_excerpt(), 4, 1000) . '</p>'; ?>

    Why not try something like this?

    <?php echo ‘<p>’ . substr(get_the_excerpt(), 4, 1000) . ‘</p>’; ?>

    deez717 where do I put this string? TNX!
