Vertical alignment II. Customizing

  1. Change the value of bottom in code line 3. The code positions the button relative to the bottom of your browser window. To fix the distance even when window is resized, specify the value in px (pixels) instead of %.
  2. Horizontal alignment 
    Change the value of margin-left in code line 3. Negative value pushes the button to the left of the main blog column, positive value pushes it to the right. 
    To position the button relative to the left or right edge of browser window, replace the margin-left with left (as in left:10px;) or right (as inright:10px;) respectively.
  3. Replacing and removing buttons 
    You can replace existing buttons with your own. Each button is represented by this code: 
    1<div class='sbutton'>
    2BUTTON CODE
    3</div>
    To replace the button, simply replace the button code with the new code. 
    To remove the button, delete the whole div.
Update (for Blogger): If somehow your Google +1 button doesn’t appear despite other buttons appear successfully, try this workaround:
  1. Go to Design > Edit HTML and find this line:
    <body expr:class='&quot;loading&quot; + data:blog.mobileClass'>
    or 
    <body>
  2. Copy the share bar code and paste it right below the line.
  3. Replace the margin-left:-71px; in code line 3 with left:10px;.
  4. Preview before saving.
