The counter next to my pinterest share button does NOT display anymore. In other words, the pinterest button displays, but not the counter. I insert the "pinterest button" code below each post in WordPress. I am not using any plugins. Any idea how to fix?

<a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/
?url=<?php the_permalink(); ?>
&media=<?php if(function_exists('the_post_thumbnail')) echo wp_get_attachment_url(get_post_thumbnail_id()); ?>
&description=<?php echo get_the_title(); ?>"
class="pin-it-button"
data-pin-do='buttonPin'
data-pin-config='beside'
data-pin-zero='true'>
<img src='//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png' alt='Pin it' />
</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js"></script>

Is the counter being generated? (Use the browsers "object inspector" (Chrome/FF) to check.)

Is it possible that CSS is hiding it?

Yes it works now. It was a problem with Pinterest itself.

Thanks for the feedback. (No need to delete the thread IMO - it's a record as to probable cause if nothing else.)
