    Hmm, I can see the Symzio widget working on your site http://www.dutchreflex.nl . However your footer still mentions “Stock image and networking platform SYMBIOSTOCK, by the maker of ClipArtIllustration.com “.

    Also, when I click on one of your images (http://www.dutchreflex.nl/image/stock-image-by-pics-xl-110/) it takes me to the old Symbiostock theme product page.

    Have you maybe installed the new plugin on the old theme? Can’t do that.

    It seems like you’re still using the old Symbiostock theme by Leo. That won’t work with Symzio. You need to migrate to the new Symbiostock plugin if you want to participate in the Symzio network.

    OK, got it.

    Still a couple of notes though.

    1. If you offer niche images, maybe of your own hometown, then the Symzio widget will display your own images (probably because nobody else on Symzio has any images of your hometown). That beats the purpose IMO.

    2. It mostly seems be a one-way-service. The site owners of the Symzio images I clicked on my product pages obviously don’t return the favor of implementing this networking tool. In fact I didn’t find a single website that would display a Symzio widget on a product page (where it makes most sense). Not sure that this is very motivating.

    As I mentioned, I’m using a theme I’ve purchased. I don’t think anybody else is going to install an additional theme that needs to be paid for.

    Are you using a self hosted WP or are you on the Symbiostock Plus?

    If you’re using a self hosted WP you can find several plugins.

    I haven’t really understood the purpose of the Symzio widget yet. It looks to me like a few random images from Symzio contributors are being displayed. Is there anything more to it?

    Since you’re referring to my site, this was part of the theme I’m using. But there are several third party plugins that can achieve the same, I’m sure. Just do a search for “WordPress social sharing plugins” and you’ll find many available options.

    You’re right, it worked fine when testing on the front end. Thanks for pointing that out.

    I’m using Safari.

    However, when I test, I do it on the backend (Edit Image -> Download File). Maybe there’s a difference between frontend and backend naming?

    Thanks. Looking forward to using this new system.

    I have to say, from the photographer and website owner perspective, I like it much better than the old Symbiostock theme.
