Re: Adding "AddThis" share buttons
Well yes I had this working until a couple of years ago
Removed it as it had quite a "large" impact on the loading of the page
(and never had any positive impact on sales)
So my recommendation is "Don't Bother" wasting your time

Thanks gilby
I went to the Google:D
Looks like most gurus agree waste of resources and not worth the effort. They are ugly and do not help in adding to revenue.
So Never mind:smile:

In case this wants to be revisited, on my product page I have a fairly unobtrusive share icon linked to a popup of share icons using this addtoany code

<!-- ADDTOANY CUSTOM SHARE BUTTON -->
<a class="a2a_dd" rel="external nofollow" href="#"></a><script>
var a2a_config = a2a_config || {};
a2a_config.icon_color = "#21B2A6";
a2a_config.num_services = 6;
a2a_config.no_3p = 1;
a2a_config.color_link_text = "#a0a0a0";
a2a_config.color_link_text_hover = "#666666";
a2a_config.prioritize = ["facebook", "twitter", "pinterest", "whatsapp", "email", "linkedin"];
</script><script src="https://static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

Admittedly I haven't assessed its usefulness, but as I'm happy with my page load times I'm inclined to keep it for the time being.
Oops, just noticed the OP referred to AddThis not AddtoAny

I put this in to show up in the Add to Cart box of each product - this in the tpl_product_info_display - placed just before the 'end of add to cart box'.
Code:
<!-- bof AddThis -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=" async="async"></script>
<div class="addthis_sharing_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style">
<a class="addthis_button_facebook"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_twitter"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_pinterest_share"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_google"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
</div>
<!--eof AddThis-->
<!--eof Add to Cart Box-->
I'm currently using clone of Responsive Classic and zc 1.5.5f. But I copied this bit of code out of previous site which I used various Picaflor templates in zc 1.5.4 and 1.5.5 up to version e. It hasn't caused me page loading issues that I can tell. I haven't determined if having this is helpful/harmful to sales.
