    Hello,

    This is a third-party-plugin issue but I thought maybe you’d have a quick idea on what is going wrong.

    I needed more robust options than is offered by the social sharing functionality that comes with Geodirectory, so I’m using the AddToAny Share Buttons plugin. Almost to perfection.

    I’ve noticed that on some Business and Event detail pages, the social sharing buttons will not show up at the bottom of the post. I cannot figure out a common denominator among the listings that show the share buttons and the ones that don’t. This problem does not occur on blog posts, pages, widgets or in page templates — only in the content of listings on the detail page.

    Here are posts where the sharing buttons are displayed just fine:

    Here are posts where the sharing buttons will not display:
    (There are more of these.)

    Any idea why I could be having this intermittent problem? If so, any idea what to do about it?

    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Hi,

    Yes, and they told me that since the problem is only occurring on GD posts, then I needed to check with you. It works fine on pages, blog posts, sidebar widgets and page templates. Just not consistently on Business and Events GD Directory posts.

    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Hi Ashley,

    You have set “Apply description limit?” => Yes in price package setting. So it trims the business content if content exceed the limit.
    There are two ways to fix
    1) Remove or increase description limit
    2) Change ordering of hook

    I have changed order of hook by adding following lines in your child theme functions.php

    remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘geodir_payments_the_content’, 99);
    add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘geodir_payments_the_content’, 97);

    Now sharing options working fine.

    Let us know,

    Kiran
