How do I find the id# of the action hook widget that I’m using?

Long way: use your browser’s “View Source” function and then scroll through everything to find it.

Easy way: use Firebug.

(Hint: Use Firebug)

Seriously, Firebug is the way to go. An example is here, my tutorial (which is really an intro) is here, and Josh’s (infinitely better video) tutorial is here.

I see the following using Firebug for the area of my action hook widget:

<div id="graphene-dynamic-widget-graphene_before_post_content" class="graphene-dynamic-widget">

<div id="text-12" class="sidebar-wrap clearfix widget_text">

<div class="textwidget">awesome</div>

My post id is 337.

So is this correct?

#post-337 #graphene-dynamic-widget-graphene_before_post_content {display:none;}

It does not seem to work if I put it in my child theme style.css file.

It doesn’t work? Then it may be because you are not using the PHP widget, which will generate a different ID than a regular text widget.

Try this guess:

#post-337 #text-12 {display: none;}

I’m embarrassed to say that both work. I’d missed a closing ‘}’ on the stylesheet entry just above where I was putting this new code in.

Thank you very much. You have a great blog, btw.

Regarding explicitly defining the URL so that the shares and counts reflect the post URL rather than the homepage URL , how can I accomplish that when using the Action Hook Widget? Wouldn’t I have to place the AddThis code to each post in order to specify the url?
