Hi tootinginsider,

The counter seems to be working ok for us – showing 101 currently.

There seem to be two different things going on here, but possibly related in a way I don’t yet see.

For the button tab in the back-end, it looks like your WordPress host may still be using an expired SSL certificate, the certificate was replaced a month or so ago, but the old one expired about ten days ago. I’ve asked our hosting provider to check the expired one has been un-installed.

For the non-updating counter in your browser, could you check the browser console log (shift-ctrl-i in most browsers) for any errors that look relevant when you go to your site?

Could you also try going to this URL please: https://widget.tibdit.com/buttons/tib-btn-horiz.svg
It should just show a large button silhouette.

And finally,could you try looking at your site from an ‘incognito’ window and/or a different web browser please.

Thanks – let us know what you see for the above, and I’ll update once our webhost updates us about the certificate status.

–Justin

Hi, a bit later than hoped, but with the current plugin version, the following attributes can be set in the shortcode to style individual tib buttons :

BTN – this is the button style (bubble, chevron, etc)
e.g. [tib BTN=”horiz”]

BTC – button colour
e.g. [tib BTC=”#ff0000″]

BTH – button height (in pixels)
e.g. [tib BTH=”60″]

These additional settings can be used to override the default actions of tibbing the specific post to reference some other content.

SUB – button subreference
e.g. [tib SUB=’some-text-string’]
This is used to specify the specific content for the tib count – by default it is the post_id.

TIB – url to be tibbed
e.g. [tib TIB=”https://www.twitter.com/tib_it”%5D
This can be used to get the ‘social snippet’ displayed on the tib confirmation page from a different URL.

Hi. Thanks for the question.

Unfortunately, the ability to override the plugin-settings button shape (and size, colour, etc) directly from a shortcode is not yet available. This is actively being worked on, and coming soon, as we continue to merge the code and features from the web-based ‘button factory’ into the plugin.

I apologise for the glitch yesterday with the button factory for charity fundraising. This is a new feature, which will improve over the next few weeks. We will also be incorporating charity fundraising via our partners Charity Buyers Group and Proof Of Donation into the WordPress plugin in a later release.

I’ll post an update under this topic with the details of customising the button from the shortcode once the functionality has been included.

another update: Site owner had disabled W3TC and our plugin is working perfectly. Obviously this is not acceptable in the long term, but I’d really appreciate some guidance and info here!

Update

Next day and W3TC has incorporated our revised .js into the consolidated and minified .js fed to the client.

… but still no go, because of a .js error further on in the consolidated file. Does W3TC do any sort of linting before putting everything together? Is there any way for a plugin author to override W3TC js consolidation for testing?

Thanks.
