   Everyone seems to want their missing button to show.
   I on the other hand would like to hide the button.
   Can it be so?
   If so how?
   This I wonder...

   How would you like to hide the button, and for what purpose? I'm happy to help.

   ShareThisSupport,

   I'm looking to do this as well because I use a page template plugin called template-redirect. It allows me to redirect a page to a website. I like Alex King's development work and decided to try ShareThis.

   I copy this template-redirect.php to my theme directory and it shows below the post in the "Page Template" area. You can see this on my blog http://butyoureagirl.com for the page called Aden Networks.

   Developer - Dave Stewart
   The developer's site
   www.davestewart.co.uk
   His blog post explaining the code http://www.keyframesandcode.com/code/development/php/wordpress/wordpress-template-page-redirect/

   Here is the code from the file:

   <?php

   /*
   Template Name: Page Redirect

   * @author Dave Stewart
   * @web www.davestewart.co.uk

   * @name Page Redirect
   * @type PHP page
   * @desc Wordpress template that redirects the current page based on the content of the database entry it loads

   * @requires Wordpress
   * @install Copy this file to the directory of the theme you wish to use
   * usage
   1. Create a new Page in your Wordpress control panel
   2. Enter the URL (or local path, relative to your Wordpress directory) you want to redirect to as the only page content
   3. Set the Page Template to "Page Redirect"
   4. Publish
   */

   if (function_exists('have_posts') && have_posts()){
   while (have_posts()){

   // get the post
   the_post();

   // get content
   ob_start();
   the_content();
   $contents = ob_get_contents();
   ob_end_clean();

   // correctly build the link

   // grab the 'naked' link
   $link = strip_tags($contents);
   $link = preg_replace('/\s/', '', $link);

   // work out
   if(!preg_match('%^http://%', $link)){
   $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
   $dir = dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
   $link = "http://$host$dir/$link";
   }

   // do the link
   header("Location: $link");
   die('');
   }

   }
   ?>
