Hash tag code added to url fro "add this"

[Neil Eisenberg]

I have a blog on a site that JUST went live.

I used ADD-THIS to add sharing buttons.

It seems to be adding hash tag code to the end of the URL when you click on a post.   Not every time, but most of the time.

I contacted BC chat support and they told me it was as a result of the add-this script.

I've used this before and I never saw this.   does anyone have any ides?   Is this worth trying to fix?   Please help, I dont know what to do.

Thanks.

This is the add-this code:

<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->

<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style ">

<a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a>

<a class="addthis_button_tweet"></a>

<a class="addthis_button_pinterest_pinit"></a>

<a class="addthis_counter addthis_pill_style"></a>

</div>

<script type="text/javascript">var addthis_config = {"data_track_addressbar":true};</script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=neileisen"></script>

<!-- AddThis Button END -->

Because you got links and no href this will always do a # by default unless in scripting you do return false.

Without the site link Neil it is hard to see fully but it is likely there is a script error occuring all the time or sometimes to cause it to not trigger properly. Or at least a conflict.

Never mind...

I found the answer here:

This is the analytics code for add-this tracking purposes and it doesnt effect SEO.

Thanks Liam.

Ahh I see, actually has values, Was not clear in your post. You will be after Dom so wont harm your SEO and should be fine.
Can effect any variable passing you may do so have this in mind if you need to do anything like that on that site.
