Everything works perfectly on my page except for the RSS but I am sure it is a minor fix. I would recommend this to anyone, simply the best out there.
Graet module, really what I was looking for. But I aslo have an issue aal the booksmark work perfect except the RSS feed. When I click the RSS feed I get an 500 error can't find content. I would really appreciate it if someone could advise me. Do I have to do some setting for the RSS. Thanks in advance, Geert
Simple to install, works great. Thanks
Would be good (for me personally) to include some more sites like N4G.com etc,

Just install and test...Seem to work without problem..great:-) Many thank for this free stuff... Anyway I would like to have possibility to customize the module suffix who is actually not available. I would like typically insert this social icons on bottom of my pages WITHOUT any template style... Hope you will add suffix option soon...All the best

hi, thx for the review, suffix option is added as requested, cheers
Installs easily and sets up intuitively. But when trying on SOBI it grabs something totally unrelated to the listing. So, those who said it works for them with SOBI, I would be interested in knowing what they did.

hi, I've installed sobi2 onto my website, but I didn't notice anything irregular (note: I'm not a sobi2 user), contact me trough contact form on salamander-studios.com and send me a link to your web page so i can check it out
Does exactly what I wanted it to do with absolutely no fuss. Highly recommended.
Hello,
i like the module, because it is small and simple. It doesnt load code from other servers, like addthis, by default, which is good for german Data Protection Act.
But the module creates bad html output, the module code needs a cleanup:
1.) The module outputs html, head and body tag, this has nothing to do withit a module
2.) The module adds a link to a css file into the code, which also breaks XHTML Rules.
This code should be replaced with:
$document =& JFactory::getDocument();
$attribs = array('type' => 'text/css', 'media' => 'screen');
$document->addHeadLink(JRoute::_($path_to_css), 'stylesheet', 'rel', $attribs);
This way loads the css file the "joomla way"
3.) Some code isnt escaped via HTML Character Entities
Code cleanup would be done in 30 minutes. Please excuse my poor english.

thx for the info, it will be done in the next version + some other improvements
and thank all ya'll for good reviews
Works prefect, and on every page. Exactly what I was looking for (for VirtueMart), it doesn't need other services to go through (like addthis does), and this is perfect.
Only thing I would love to see, is many services to choose from, and changeable order please. This would make the module far ahead.
cheers, congrats

Thank you very much for this!!
Installed without problem, and was up and running in seconds. Unlike another reviewer, I had no problems running it with SOBI2 either. If you want an easy, professional-looking social bookmarking extension, look no further. Excellent work!
This is extremely convenient and flexible. With a choice of icons and module placements visitors only have to click to open up their chosen bookmarking site in another window. I'm going to add it to all my sites!
Hello, I love the idea of this module but it doesn't work with Sobi2.
After installation it works fine on all my Joomla site pages but I lose the icons when I navigate to a Sobi2 page they become text links.
I hope in the future it will work with Sobi2.

I was looking for a nice Social Bookmark that is a module.... not a plugin. Well this is it. The icons are done well. By using a module I can place it where I want it. Installed a few seconds... and done. Thanks A Lot...!
