Fix S-ButtonZ Causing Slow Page Loads with Reddit Enabled
I have the S-ButtonZ plugin installed on my site. When the site loads sometimes the page is not loading for several seconds. I believe this is due to reddit not loading quickly and the rest of the page wont load until reddit finishes. I know some other plugins that use digg and reddit have it built in to where it allows the rest of the page to load before loading the digg or reddit buttons in order to avoid this. Would it be possible to have a similar change here?
Yes, it would be possible. Digg buttons are already set up in this way with the digg API mode.
As for reddit and other buttons, not all button providers have accessible APIs like digg has. At least last I checked.
It is still possible to setup all buttons that don’t have available APIs, but you’ll lose the counter effect and only have a button.
The original intent of this application was to provide counter buttons only.
I also have limited time these days to work on these plugins, but if anyone is willing to submit updates, I thank you in advance.
