Hey everyone, I've updated the Tweet Button docs today with information which I hope will answer a number of your questions. In particular the example about using a short URL with the parameter data-counturl should help those of you whose counts are staying at 0. http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button#using-shorturl
For reference the documentation URLs are: http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button and http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button_faq Hope that helps, Matt On Fri, Aug 20, 2010 at 7:58 PM, felipe.lavin <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi.
