Social Media up to front

15 Feb 2016, 12:45

Hi,

The social media is 'hidden' with the menu at the left.
I would like encourage users to post on Facebook, so I would like a bigger button, that you can see more easy.

I found this website, that has the social media buttons always on the website.
Is there a way I can achieve this?

My best situation that the sidebar social media is always on-top, always visible to the viewer.

I already e-mailed the website owner.

Many thanks.

I think you can achieve this by:
"Settings / Toolbar / Settings / uncheck:Autohide toolbar after mouse inactivity"

I didn't try it, but I would give it a shot :-)

Just uncheck "Show toolbar items on share button mouse hover." and "Autohide toolbar ...":

Will ALWAYS display:

The first setting makes sure all buttons display without hovering over the "Share" button. The 2nd button prevents the autohide timeout.

This is what EVERY website owner wants. Tests show that it's not what the website visitors want. Your decision, regardless.

Hi mjau-mjau,

Thank you for you're reply.
I can't get it working, should I change something?
I attached a picture with my settings.

Thanks for you're excellent help!

Hi,

I'm sorry, it still doensn't work.
In the front pages I don't see it 'up to front'.

Also, I would like to have the buttons visible when you are looking at images.

It certainly did when I replied two weeks ago. Right now I check your link pureapixel.com, and you are using an OLD X3 0.11 version ... The sharing toolbar was not even available yet in that release.
