Hi @jmbarroso,

Did you download the .tar.gz file from the “Releases” page?

Hi @asmecher,

I downloaded it from here. Releases · pkp/addThis · GitHub

Hugs!

Hi @jmbarroso,

Before we debug this further, have you looked in the Plugin Gallery? The AddThis plugin should be there, and available for installation if you’re a Site Administrator.

Hi @asmecher,

If it is there, available to install. But when I hit the install button it does not react.

Do you know what it can be?

Hugs!

Hi @jmbarroso,

Check your PHP error log for details.

Hi @asmecher,

this is the php error:

Thanks!

Hi @jmbarroso,

Is that all you see? Those warnings are cosmetic and can be ignored. There may be something more relevant further back in the log.

Hi!

Sorry @asmecher but those are the mistakes that I can see. Where can I see a deeper log on the php error?

Sorry for my ignorance.

A hug and thank you very much for everything.

Hi @jmbarroso,

I think you’re looking in the right file, but there are probably more messages than the ones you quoted.

Hello @asmecher

I put all the errors that gave me the OJS debug.

Do you know anything else I can do?

Thank you

Hi @jmbarroso,

Hmm, I’m not sure why log entries wouldn’t be more specific. The most common causes of plugins not installing properly are…

  • File permissions in the plugins directory. OJS needs to be able to write to this area.
  • Misconfiguration of the tar option in the [cli] area of your config.inc.php. Ensure that OJS can execute the tar tool as configured here.

Hi @asmecher,

I have been answered from the hosting telling me that I have system and exec functions disabled for the tar . Which one do I need to activate?

Forgive me for my ignorance and thank you for the help.

A hug

Hi @jmbarroso,

OJS uses the exec function for this.

Dear @mbauerCOM

I want to add follow us social media buttons on on my journal home page, so I plugged in ‘add this’ and received the code but I don’t know where should I paste the code? as the message is: Paste the above code right above the closing of the HTML in your website on every page you want AddThis to work. I can’t find of the HTML in the journal website.
Could you please advise?
