This is not an issue at all. It's all about CSS. The FB like button is applied a fixed width of 90px, which is optimized for the English text. You use another language, so you have to change the width to your needs (this is why there is a user.css file as well).

Normally support for ValAddThis is free only for donators or customers, so please don't forget to donate something in the project next time you need support.

Also don't forget to vote for the plugin at the website of JED if you liked it: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/social-web/social-bookmarking/12639

I'm sorry to say that I don't really agree.
How can css cause a parse error, mind the brace!!

To me it looks rather as a chrome issue to parse the code and as a result is not displaying the google+ and Addthis box...

But to give the benefit of the doubt, I will change the fb lang back to english to see if that solves the issue.

Thank you for your time

Parse error? Brace? What you see as a brace is the left part of the sharing counter! Just change the width of the FBlike class to something like 110px and see what I mean. Please before you post an "issue", first make sure it is an issue.

As it regards your last argument about the "Failed to load resource"...the scripts are 3rd party ones, the first one from AddThis and the other one called by FB script itself, ValAddThis has absolutely nothing to do with those scripts "not being accessible"! By the way, these scripts are accessible from with my browser(s), Chrome included.
