I don't believe I can replicate this on our site here but i am not the knowledgeable one on this plugin so I have asked @mr-papa to check this and respond. It will be later in the day however.
Here is a video recording. Clicking on both links and short codes does the same thing. It doesn't take me to the post. Instead. it just takes me to the top of the thread.
this looks like a recent change to the sharethis api... they have provided a new argument to their js script to turn of the auto hashing that is corrupting the url...
I will try to get an update out to the plugin in the next few days, but in meantime, if you want, you can make the change yourself... in sp-share-this-components.php, around line 90, replace:
$script.= ' <script type="text/javascript"> stLight.options({ publisher: "'.$publisher.'", shorten: '.$shorten.', minorServices: '.$minor.', onhover: '.$hover.', theme: "'.$options['theme'].'", newOrZero: "zero", }); </script>';
with
$script.= ' <script type="text/javascript"> stLight.options({ publisher: "'.$publisher.'", shorten: '.$shorten.', minorServices: '.$minor.', onhover: '.$hover.', theme: "'.$options['theme'].'", newOrZero: "zero", doNotHash: true, }); </script>';
its just adding the doNotHash argument...

That's standard URL encoding which allows a url to be copied, pasted etc., without corruption. Again I will pass this on to Mr Papa as I am not sure if this is avoidable but it is probably recommended.
Yeah its taking up all the space. Plus it looks like this on twitter. Which looks like spam to me.
I'll stick with using the "share it" green button for now. Works much better now.
I am still not sure how you are getting a twitter box that looks like that... its not the standard one... and is typically converted to a sharethis url... have you set an special options on our sharethis options panel?

I get the error by enabling the individual Social Icons.
Once enabled. Clicking on Twitter gives you that weird URL.
I understand all that.. my point was I dont get the same behavior... popup doesnt look like that... url doesnt look like that... its a sharethis shortened url...
hence why I asked for the options on forum - components - share this... the top section...

so the only difference is mine has use minor services options in popup checked, but that just affects the share this green button popup...
so a bit puzzled how you are seeing what you do...
might have asked this before, but are you using the wp share this plugin in addition to ours?
