Sharing Buttons on Blogger

Blogger has been adding new features to improve the looks and usability of the blogs. Blogger is now testing out a new Social Sharing icon set consisting of Email, Blogger, Twitter, Facebook and Google buzz buttons. The widget looks simple and elegant with some cool mouse over effects. These Sharing buttons are now available in your regular dashboard. If you need to take a peek at these new sharing icons, then take a look at the bottom of this post (and try sharing it). :)

You are still reading. So i guess that you are really interested in adding these Sharing buttons on your Blogger Blog.

Don’t wait. Just follow these simple steps



1. Login to your Blogger Dashboard

2. Go to Design > Page Elements and Click on the Edit Button near the Blog Posts Gadget and check the “Show Share Buttons” Option

3. You can Drag and Drop the Share buttons and place it where you want.

4. Now if everything went right, then you should be able to see the Share buttons on your Blog. If not then read on. :)

5. If it didn’t appear then don’t worry, That is because you are having a modded template. Just Go to the Edit HTML page under the Design Tab , Check the “Expand Widget Templates” Option and locate

<p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>

Or if that is not there then find 

<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>

Or if that is not there then find 

<data:post.body/>

 and place the  following code  just below any of these lines [whichever is present in your template].

<div class='post-share-buttons'>

<b:include data='post' name='shareButtons'/>

</div>

and Save your template.

That's it! Share button should apper on your blog. If not or if you have some questions please leave them in comment!
