So I'm not exactlys sure what to call it, but if you go to my site, I have it on a scroll to show my latest posts.
It starts out with my "Share the Love" for fb/pinterest/

Don't know if this has been resolved, however that's the plugin forum, I don't use sassy social.

Hi Angela
Which share icons are you using? It sounds like it might be Grow Social by Mediavine... if it is, it is easy to change the position of the icons...

I use sassy social share, but that isn't the problem. It's the excerpt for my posts that have that as the first line. I think when it shows in the scroll it wants to use the first paragraph of the post and thinks that those words including the affiliate disclosure is a part of my post. I want to remove that first part of the excerpt so it only shows my post.
I hope that makes sense.

OK ... if you go into the Sassy settings from the WP Dashboard sidebar, then go to the second tab headed "Standard Interface" then scroll down... ~
you'll find a series of boxes for dictating where the icons show.~
Make sure that the one for "Excerpts and Posts Page" is empty... remember to SAVE...
Please try that and check if that sorts the problem.
:-)
Richard

I checked and it is empty.

OK... it looks as if with the Sassy free version you can only add the standard icons at the top of a post. So you either go premium, use a different share icon plugin or create a custom excerpt that somehow excludes the icons.

Personally, I prefer to put social share icons at the door of posts because I don't expect anyone to share from the excerpt or from the top of a post.

I think the easiest way would be to swap sassy for Grow Social which allows you to stop showing the icons at the top of a post.

Richard

that maybe controlled within your social media plugin...
have a look down your sidebar for it or hover over settings to see if anything jumps out at you....
you may be able to change what shows in the snippet....

Thank you I will give it a try!

The Wealthy Affiliate Platform
Updated

Hey all! It's been almost 6 months since I have been on this platform. Life got in the way and I had to deal.
Anyway, I thought there was a 6 month grace period before y

For future purposes if you were to go.

For any websites hosted here, you need arrange alternative hosting for your website before your subscription ceases as you would be locked out the platform, site support back ups are only available for 60 days.

You can never revert back to being a starter.

I also suggest you backup your sites, you can use the AIO WP Migration or Updraft plugins. UpdraftPlus is a premium and highly recommended
.
Also domain names must have passed the grace period of 60 days.

However I am glad you got it figured out.

Thank you so much guys for your input! Site Support has restored my site! Yay!!!!!

Now it's time to refresh it and get back to work!

So happy to be back with you guys! Ya can't get rid of me that easily HAHAHA! :-)

Next chapter, here I come!

This is wonderful news!!!!

That's awesome, Angela!

Welcome Back!! 😊
Frank

Great to know.
All the best.

That's awesome news and thank you for sharing.

You could also try Site Support, Angela! Of course, if you are an annual member, your stuff should still be right where it was, my friend! Best success to you either way!

Jeff

If site support does not have a copy of your website, you could try the "waygackmachine". It is an extension that allows you to view content of archived websites. It is possible you could find your original content there.

Hi - actually, your website is deleted after 60 days. There is a possibility that Site Support may still have a backup if you didn't make one yourself before you left.

Thank you Diane! I must have just mistaken the 6's LOL. I will message them and see. If I have to start over, maybe it's a blessing in disguise :-)

That's a perfect attitude to have too, Angela!

Hey everyone!

Good morning this fine Thursday!

I am trying to get links for an affiliate program in this network but am having trouble doing so.

I am u

Thanks for the kind recommendation for ShareASale. As the ShareASale rep here, I can tell you that we work hard to make things easy for you to secure links through our platform!

I know about flexoffers, yet do not belong. From what found while looking around is this:
https://www.flexoffers.com/affiliate-programs-categories/

Maybe you can try here. Sometimes a search doesn't bring up the content you search for.. .

Rudy

Thanks Rudy!

I already have a program that is approved, finding the individual links is what I need.

I can find the programs but when I search for certain products they don't come up.

I'm gonna have to message them and have them help me out.

Thanks : )

Oh...ok. yeah, that would be my next thing to do, too.
Another thing to consider is this is Not shareASale, and marketplaces are not the same.
Look at flex with new eyes.
Sometimes we have expectations on what something should be based on past experiences...grin.
