X button

Hi @chipur Yes there is – https://www.shareaholic.com/website-tools/social-share-buttons/twitter – the icon will be updated by end of this week.

Excellent, thank you.

X/Twitter icon update is live. We also updated/added several other icons in this update.

Maybe this issue is related: a few days ago the sharebar Icons on our website got changed randomly.

The links still work and the colors are right. But the icons are totally mismatch.

Hi @tobiasber there have been some instances where the browser cache is still calling the old icons (with new CSS stylesheet). Can you please try shift-refresh in your browser to force refresh the cache?

Hey and thank you. We could solve it. We’ve had preloaded the files from shareaholic on our website. So the website was still loading old css and js.

Thank you. Your answer helped a lot to find the cause of this issue!

Hi @tobiasber Would love to see how you’ve set it up. How are you preloading and what are you preloading?

Would it be helpful if you were to provide the file path to the icon font in a json?

ok, sorry… we did defer it, not preload. Because readers would not decide to share a post before reading it

maybe you could defer the files from your plugin by default or have an option in the settings to do so?

this code we used (which loaded the old icons and caused the problems)

<script defer="defer" src="https://cdn.shareaholic.net/assets/pub/shareaholic.js" fetchpriority="low"></script>
<script defer="defer" src="https://m9m6e2w5.stackpathcdn.com/v2/d1d50b0d/buttons.js" fetchpriority="low"></script>

@tobiasber we will look into whether we can add a plugin option under Advanced. Some apps, such as the Cookie Consent App need to be loaded ASAP so it’s not uniformly applicable.

shareaholic.js in turn loads buttons.js – so you shouldn’t have to defer both. Have you tried to defer just the main shareaholic.js script? buttons.js is fingerprinted to the release (for example, “d1d50b0d”), so the path can change with no warning.

Hi @tobiasber? a heads up – buttons.js path has been updated.
