Two questions:
1. Is there a chance to use other button styles then the offered 4 styles I can chose from in my backend?

2. Why are pinterest and g+ not displayed on my site even tough I checked the boxes?

1. Is there a chance to use other button styles then the offered 4 styles I can chose from in my backend?

[/quote][/quote]
Unfortunately not. The button layout style reflect the choices available by the social networks. We have no control over this options.

Why are pinterest and g+ not displayed on my site even tough I checked the boxes?

1. For Pinterest, the PinIt button will only show up if there is an image on the page. If there is an image but it's not showing, please enable our 'Open Graph - Content' plugin to see if this helps. We use this plugin to determine the best image and text to pin. If there is no image, then you will need to add one to the content before this button can be displayed. If this doesn't fix the Pinterest problem, please let me know.
2. For Google, I see the HTML code for the plus one button. However, I do not see the appropriate Google javascript file included on the page. Do you have anything that might be altering, stripping this out, or attempting to compress/optimize your page?

1) The image requirement is from Pinterest, and there's nothing we can do on our end about it. They need an image whenever something is shared as they are an image-focused site.

2) When you disable JCH Optimize, does the Google +1 button work? If so, you'll need to determine what setting in JCH is causing things to break. We're not familiar with all of their options, so I can't give you a specific answer. You may need to contact the JCH developers who may be able to help diagnose further as well.

Thanks,
Alex

I tested it without JCH Otimize, it didn't change anything.
Whilst testing I learned that K2 Articles do show at least Twitter and Facebook at the top and bottom. Normal Joomla! Articles do show a twitter button in the module or nothing. The settings are:

I do also have a non floating module that should be showing g+, facebook or twitter. My ghostery shows the trackers of all three on any of my pages, but they are not shown to the user.

Do you have my domain?

Can you let us know what pages you're testing on? That way, we can see the working and non-working cases to help narrow things down further. While we test extensively, and many users have no issues with our social buttons, some sites just have conflicts that we need to see to resolve.

You mention a difference between K2 and Joomla articles. Please post links to each and what is/isn't working on those pages and we'll gladly help narrow things down from there. If you can leave JCH Optimize disabled, for now, that would help too. If it's compressing or optimizing files on your site, we may not be able to determine what's going wrong.

Thanks,
Alex

Ok well the site I'm testing is: www.niederlande-tipps.de/
If you go to the main page everything is alright.

If I go to a K2 item like www.niederlande-tipps.de/ausflugstipps/i...adfuehrer-doetinchem
Then I would only see Facebook and Twitter, whilst G+ is also enabled.

If you would go to a Joomla! item like: www.niederlande-tipps.de/outlet-roermond
You would see only twitter, whilst the settings are Facebook, twitter and G+ enabled.

Thanks for your reply JCH is deactivated for now.

I enabled all three social networks at the beginning and end of each (Joomla and K2) item.

I also have put one module in the sticky-left position of my template. With all three again.

On the Joomla article page:
The Facebook Like button isn't showing because of the following style in your template:
#jsn-pos-stick-leftmiddle, #jsn-pos-stick-rightmiddle {
    visibility: hidden;
}
I honestly don't know how or why that style is applying, but disabling it makes the button show.

For the Google +1 button is not displaying, still, because our Javascript is not being inserted onto those pages. Can you try re-ordering the JFBCSystem plugin so it's ordered as the first or last in the system plugin group to see if that helps? Otherwise, please try, temporarily, to use one of the built-in Joomla templates (Atomic, Protostar, Beez) and let us know if that works. That will help narrow down the cause of why the code isn't being inserted.

Thanks,
Alex
