Social Media Icons
Hello Wonderful People
The Social Media Icons on my posts are looking funny. They were looking right since I added them, but since yesterday they look different.
I am using Ultimate Social Media.
Do you know what I can do to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Blessings

I remember having similar issues when you mentioned seeing numbers beside the icons. There was some type of number next to either my Facebook or Twitter icon, and it didn't make any sense because when I used the plugin for the first time, the post obviously hadn't been shared that many times yet for that number to appear.
Although I heard some good reviews from other members here about that plugin, I moved on from it and tried others. My guess is that it didn't cooperate with my particular theme, because I could never resolve it.
Thanks for your comment Isaiah,
Yes that is the issue with the number and the icons.
It does not look good. Not sure what I will do yet.
Did you experience any problem with your website when you changed to another plugin?

Hi Jackie, could you be more descriptive. What do you mean looking funny. Have you added or changed anything since yesterday.

Thanks for your response Michael, I don't know how to fully explain it, and I do not know how to add a snippit yet. I was trying to read how to do it, but the instructions mentioned HTML.
I will try to explain:
The follow and like icon look ok, but the number 20 is showing beside the Facebook Share and Tweet icon. The Pin share is showing word instead of an icon, and the number 20 is beside it as well.
From my understanding, we should not put our website link in the blog. If you can, please look at a post on my website, and you will get a better understanding of what I am trying to say.
The link to my website is on my profile page.
The only thing I did differently was add a picture and video to Twitter (on Saturday), could that have caused it?

Hi Wendy, just a suggestion. Have you considered using a different type of social plugin such as, Shareaholic - Grow and Engage Your Audience. You can de-activate Ultimate Social Media on a temporary basis.
Best wishes,
Michael
Good Morning Michael and Jackie,
I would be careful with changing the social plugins as it is not sure your likes will be transferred meaning you start from 0.
I wrote a post about that here is the link. Think before you delete Greetings from the south of Spain,

Thanks Michael
I have thought of using Yoast, but concern about if it will make changes to the website.
I will wait awhile and see what happens, if no change, I will definitely have to do something.

Thanks for providing the blog and the advice Taetske. Very interesting.
Yes, I have to think carefully before I make a decision about what to do.
I am glad that you were able to eventually get those images back on your post.
All the best

Hi Jackie, if don't mind could you send me a PM of your website. What are some of the other reasons you want to switch to Yoast.
Michael
Hi Michael,
Thank for offering to look at my website, I will send you a PM.
I am thinking of switching to Yoast because I saw Jay used it in one of the training, and I saw some features that I believe would be helpful.
Thanks for asking the question.

Thanks for your response William, I do not know how to add a snippit yet.
The number 20 is showing beside two icons, Facebook Share and Tweet (not on the icons).
The Pin share is showing word instead of an icon, and the number 20 is beside it as well.
If you can, please look at my website on my profile page, since I should not add the link here. You will get a better idea of what I am trying to say.
