    Notably the end ->

    "There is one major caveat to this system. Our systems require the tweetmeme-title to be a strict subset of the page title. i.e. The tweetmeme-title must be derived directly from your original page title - if it is not, it will be ignored. This is to ensure that the tweet the button sends can always be predicted by the user to be relevant to the page they are reading."

      Thanks for that.

      I also found this code on that same page, but it doesn't seem to be working for me yet:
      <meta name="tweetmeme-title" content="<?php wp_title(''); ?>" />

      They said to put it in the header.php file.

      However, when I did that, it didn't work.

      Hopefully someone who figured out how to get it to work will reply soon

      Thanks,

        You have to make sure you paste the code between the <head> and </head> tags, so it goes with the page header information.

        If you paste it anywhere else, it will be ignored...

          Thanks John, It's in between.

          I have a feeling it's because of my theme. It was the only one i liked at the time,
          but it wasn't coded all that good. So it may be messing it up somehow.

          I appreciate all the help I have gotten from you all so far.

          Thanks again.
