10 CommentsPlugins, Social Media, WordPress, ,

The problem was this, when I went to the settings of the BlogEngage there is only one option to align where you want to place your button.
These options for alignments are:

  • Top Left
  • Top Right
  • Bottom Left
  • Bottom Right
  • None

    • After I selected the top left (because that’s where I wanted my button to be displayed) I notice an error in my Thesis teaser section.

    Have you ever wondered why people fail to make money online?

    Making money online is a dream which all webmasters wish to achieve. But getting all caught up in the “making money online” can make you think less about building up your site.
