Hello

How can I disable all Social API Links/Graphics (see here http://bewerbung.notebookmobil.ch/stories.html) in the Frontend?
There is "Tweet" and "Pin it" still visible (they only show up in "not categorized" articles?).

I disabled them all under extensions/templates/(M)social/Social API but they still show up???
Any ideas?

Best regards

Andy

Please edit: /templates/gk_msocial/css/override.css and add at its end:
Code: Select all
#gkSocialAPI {display: none;}

Remember to enable "CSS override" in template settings - advanced section.

Hi Cyberek

Thanks for your answer. I will try it.

But is it not a little bit strange to use a css-override instead of the template disable function?
And for what ist the template "disable function" if they don't work correctly?
That should be corrected by the developer (and not by the customer)!

There are at leas 3 or 4 places where it can be set and you would need to check them all, and still there is no 100% guarantee that there is no other settings that affect api generation.
Using override is the easiest way to fix the problem.
