Embed ShareThis link in theme

  echo theme('sharethis', $title = NULL, $url = NULL);

Unless I'm mistaken, the html head including javascript is already built by the time the theme tpl's are called. So if you are calling theme('sharethis'...) inside of a .tpl file, the javascript will not get added properly. The best thing to do is to add the theme('sharethis'...) output to a variable via template.php then print out that variable in your .tpl.

Ahh, I see what you're saying. Why do you want to put this in the theme? Where do you want it to show up? There's probably a module hook we could/should use instead. Adding features into the theme is usually not a good idea because if you want to change themes, you'll be out of luck. It's better to add all new features in the module layer.

i'd, personally, like to be able to reorder it like a cck field.

I am closing this bug report, as Drupal 6 is no longer supported. Please re-open it if the issue is still relevant for the Drupal 7 or 8 version of the module.
