What is the Follow Button?

The Follow Button is a new and innovative way to provide a simple button to allow your readers to follow you on Twitter. The button includes the ability for your readers to see your reach or influence through Twitter Grader, your engagement through Twitalyzer and your growth through Twitter Counter.

I’m seeing a ? instead of my Twitter profile picture, what do I do?

This means that you haven’t set the source for your button, to set this you need to set your tweetmeme_screen_name. In the Wordpress Plugin this can be done through the TweetMeme/ Settings within admin. Or for the Javascript button you should replace tweetmeme_screen_name = ‘yourtwitterusername’; with your actual username where yourtwitterusername is found.

How do I change the size of my button?

For the standard button and the compact button the size is pre set and cannot be altered. However for the square button you can set the size using the tweetmeme_size = ‘50′; parameter within the Javascript button. In the Wordpress plugin you need to set the size in the TweetMeme/ Settings area within your admin panel.
