Comments:
This procedure has been tested in joomla version 1.6 but similar procedure should work on any version.
At the first steps of this procedure we disabled editors and text filtering because text editors and text filtering is removing the <iframe> tag. With out this we can not install the bar.
Once done you can set back these settings to anything you like, but you have to set them again as described above if you ever need to modify my share bar.
During module creation you have also the options to set in which pages the bar will be displayed.
This way, based on the module position selection you have made, my share bar can appear on all pages and your visitors will be able to socialize all these pages and articles with their distinguished page/article title and URL.
You can add button combinations to varius possitions of your site simple by creating more custom modules. You can use <div> tags to set position left or right within your desired location.
An example or my share bar in Joomla can be found at http://www.tecorange.com (my share bar appears in 2 locations with different button combinations and sizes)
Thank you!
