Twiiter Follow button - not showing...
Hi all -
I use VSD version 7 build 24.
I'm in the process of re-designing my site (I have not published it yet, still working on my computer)
I wanted to add the Follow button for my twitter account to my site
I went to Twitter found a button and copied the code they provided
I created an add html box on the page I was working on and pasted the code into the box
When I went to preview the page the follow button does not display - what I see instead is the text 'follow@twittername'
if I click on the text it does take me to the twitter page so the link is working
I'm wondering how to get the button image to display
anyone have this issue before?

Can you post the code you pasted into VSD please, so we can take a look at it.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Hi-
Yes I used this link: https://twitter.com/about/resources/buttons#tweet
And below is the code that was generated:
<a href="https://twitter.com/CecandGwen" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false" data-size="large">Follow @CecandGwen</a>
<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

A lot of those social buttons won't show until you actually upload your site.
I pasted your code into my site and it showed after publishing.
