Lars,
First off, I greatly apologize for the non-response before. We pride ourselves on excellent support, and we obviously dropped the ball in your case. I'm not sure why I missed your post, but we'll do whatever we can, quickly, to get you going.

Now, as to your problem, it seems like there's an HTML issue on your page. When our buttons are being inserted into the page, along with the HTML issue, the browser is having trouble trying to determine the best way to overcome the glitch and render everything as best as it can.

By example, the HTML on your page around the "Label" text looks like:
<div class="tm-middle uk-grid" data-uk-grid-match data-uk-grid-margin>
  <div class="tm-main uk-width-medium-3-4">				
    <main class="tm-content">			
      <h1>Label</h1>
        <article class="uk-article"  title="Deeper Shades Recordings Mission Statement			
           Written on 10 March 2008.
        <div class="sourcecoast share twitter sc_twittershare"><a href="http://twitter.com/share" ....
The problem there is that the <article class=".. line is never properly closed.

It's possible that JFBConnect is causing that problem, but it would be something we've never seen before. My best guess is that your template has a bug in closing that line.

I hope that helps narrow things down for you, but if you feel it may be a JFBConnect problem, let us know and we'll gladly help however we can.

Thanks,
Alex

Alright.. the best course from here is to Private Message me admin details to your site so we can investigate further. You can PM me by clicking the mail icon under my name to the left.

Also, just to make sure, you're having JFBConnect automatically add those sharing buttons, correct? That's done by the JFBCContent plugin and the JFBConnect -> Social settings. If you're adding the buttons manually, let me know, so we know how to debug things best.

Thanks,
Alex

Thanks for the PM, and your patience.

I just investigated a little more on your site and things are mostly fixed now. The solution was to move the JFBCSystem plugin higher up in the ordering of system plugins. I believe the problem is that some other system plugin (likely one of the SEO ones) was trying to take our tags and insert them into the <article title="..."> tag. That was then causing a whole slew of other problems when JFBConnect later parsed out those tags and replaced them.

Either way, things look better now, but please test and let me know how it goes.

Thanks,
Alex

Awesome! I'm so happy to hear that it's working for you now and glad we could help, even if very belatedly.

As for Sendy, we love it too :) We'll be using it to send out a newsletter announcing 6.2 over the next few days actually. Saves us so much money over MailChimp for our sporadic use. Our Joomla integration for it is pretty basic, but meets our needs and those of our users, so far, as well.

All the best,
Alex
