    Hi Dani. Page Builder works in a way that can be unexpected for plugin developers. It makes the content area of a theme (non widget area) a widget area. As a result there can be compatibility issues with some plugins. This plugin is unfortunately not compatible with Page Builder. My suggestion would be to mail the developer and encourage them to make their plugin compatible. You could also try another social plugin.

    I haven’t tried many but have used: http://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-facebook-twitter-share-buttons/. I used the shortcode functionality of that plugin: [really_simple_share]. I setup the networks I wanted and then dropped the shortcode in using the HTML view of the Black Studio Visual Editor: http://wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/

    Just to report that I have similar issue with simple share buttons plugin.
    in this website http://www.laplandinteractive.com

    I wish maybe in future you can find a way to reduce these incompatibility, it will help to speed the work instead of having to insert manually the widget but I thank you very much for your great plugin…

      Thanks for your feedback Angelo. If you have a moment perhaps mention this to the plugin author. We’re here to assist authors with compatibility issues but the will/motivation to fix the problem does unfortunately need to come from their side at the moment. As Page Builder grows in popularity I’m sure we’ll see more authors come on board.

      All the best.

    I apologize with you if maybe I wrote in a wrong place. I supposed you were the author.

    In any case page builder it’s a great plugin to have on board.

    All the best.

    Hi,

    I have the same issue, reported that to the plugin author and asked to report the issue to you
