Agh; I'm looking through my account settings trying to find where I can turn off the share button option, and I can't find it. The FAQ tells me how I can add a "repost button" to an entry, but I just want to make sure that my posts have no repost button, as the default.

Stupid LJ

I feel like I'm spamming the entire thread with this, I probably am...but here it is anyway.

Go into your profile and hover your mouse over the word "profile" to get the drop down menu, then click "settings".

One of the first lines on that page is: "You can edit your account settings below. You may also want to edit your profile or your journal style".

Click on the link "journal style", then choose "customize your theme" (right half of the page, near the top).

There's a sub menu, on the left, on that page. Choose "entry text".

There's a line that says "Text to share this with a friend". Whatever text is in that box (mine said "share"), remove it and leave it blank, then save your changes.

That turned it off totally for me, including on my public posts.

Thanks - you're not spamming the entire thread, you're providing a valuable service! As it happens, that is exactly what the nice support volunteer at LJ told me, and I've done it.

Mind you, the way they phrased their information ("While there is no setting offered to turn off the Share button/link per se, you can adjust your display of this link so that it does not appear on your page. ") makes me think that someone reading you through your friends list (or news feed or whatever the hell they're calling it these days) will still be able to find a share button and share your post without you knowing it. The process you and the volunteer suggested may only remove it rom your actual site - and then only if someone reads your journal in your style, and doesn't read it in their own style (which may have the "share" option turned on.)

So "stupid LJ" still applies, at least provisionally. Sigh.

Thanks again, though!

:o( That doesn't sound good. I've just looked at my page while logged out and I can't see the share button at all, so... ::crosses fingers::

And you're welcome. I'm glad it all came in handy. I just hope it actually works!
