Just installed damnsexybookmarks plugin and noticed that it was not working properly for some reason. It showed “Array” for every single bookmarking option on mouse hover. After looking through quite a few blogs, I noticed that a lot of people had the same problem but nobody had a solution. So, I posted my solution on a few blogs and thought I would post it here too.

If it happens to you, here is what you need to do:

After downloading the plugin, open the file damn-sexy-bookmarks.php in wordpad or your favourite editor, scroll to line 335 in bookmark_list_item() function. Replace lines 335 and 336 from:
$bookmarks[$name],
$bookmarks[$name]
to:
$bookmarks[$name]['share'],
$bookmarks[$name]['share']

This quick hack fixed the problem for me. Please let me know if you need any more explanation on this.

DamnSexyBookmarks is pretty cool wordpress plugin that allows your blog readers to share your stories on popular social bookmarking sites.

As it’s been quite some time since I installed the plugin from last time. I assume the problem may be in the version. I downloaded mine from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/damnsexybookmarks/ and as far as I understand, the project has been discontinued. This plugin has merged with SexyBooksmarks plugin and perhaps I just downloaded the older version.  If you did the same, please try looking for SexyBookmarks plugin and see if it fixes the problem.

UPDATE: Just verified, it was an older version and sexybookmarks wordpress plugin has way more social network links and no problems. To download it, please go to http://sexybookmarks.net/ .

DO NOT INSTALL DAMNSEXYBOOKMARKS, INSTALL SEXYBOOKMARKS INSTEAD! NO FIXES NEEDED!
