Social Buttons in Navigation Bar
#1
I really like how the +1 and Like buttons are placed on the GS homepage. I assume this was added in the template's code, but where exactly should I add it to get a similar look on my site? What should I include to make them right-align?

1) there is a plugin for this out:

http://get-simple.info/extend/plugin/soc...ons-3/201/

download that

2) install it

3) you will see that the buttons are present under the content
4) study the source code of the page:
Code:
<!-- Social Share Plugin by www.nokes.de - START --><div id="shareline">
    <a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>
    <g:plusone size="medium"></g:plusone>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.linkedin.com/in.js"></script><script type="in/share" data-counter="right"></script>
    </div><!-- END - Social Share Plugin by www.nokes.de -->

you see there is a div with the id "shareline" and other classes etc.

so you really can define the layout like you want, defining the CSS elements

add this to your CSSfile of the active theme:
Code:
#shareline{text-align:right;}

and the buttons will sit at the right

I didn't like the offerings of that plugin, so I just made a new <div> in the template and did it myself. You can check out the result, if you'd like. Thanks for the ideas though!

Thanks for pointing me to that thread... I'd love to see these 3 social bookmarking as these are good ones among the others, aside from facebook and twitter.

exactly. If you know the embed-code of the service which you want to include, why not include it in the template or create a component and add the code there?
