Mashable Like Floating Social Widget For Blogger

Its been a while many got impressed with Mashable’s floating social bookmarking widget and many tried and came up with a wordpress plugin. But actually people forgot about creating a floating social bookmarking plugin for blogger. So here in this post, I am going to teach how to add floating social widget to your blogger/blogspot blogs.

Live Demo

Step 1: Navigate to Edit HTML from Blogger dashboard and check Edit Widget Template. Search for ]]></b:skin> and replace it with the below code

#sharebox {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
border-color:#C1CDCD;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
left:103px;
bottom:40px;
margin-top:10px;
position:fixed;
width:64px;
}
#sharebox .float {margin:7px}
.FBConnectButton_Text
{
font-size: 8px;
padding:2px 4px 3px !important;
}
]]></b:skin>

Step 2: This step involves inserting the widget functions into your template. Therefore, place the below code before <div class='post-header-line-1'/>

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<div id='sharebox'>
<div class='float'><script src='http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js' type='text/javascript'/></div>
<div class='float'><a href='http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php' name='fb_share' type='box_count'>Share</a><script src='http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share' type='text/javascript'/><div class='clear'/></div>
<div class='float'><a class='google-buzz-button' data-button-style='normal-count' href='http://www.google.com/buzz/post' title='Post on Google Buzz'/>
<script src='http://www.google.com/buzz/api/button.js' type='text/javascript'/></div>
<div class='float'><script src='http://www.stumbleupon.com/hostedbadge.php?s=5'/></div>
</div>
