Positioning and Size
Initial Offset from top: Distance in pixels from the top of the window when the page is first loaded. Default: 200px.
Offset from top after scrolling: Distance in pixels from the top of the window after the user has scrolled down considerably. Default: 20px.
Offset from left: Adjust this value to move the GetSocial box horizontally. Higher value moves it farther to the left, while lower value moves it to the right. Default: 88px.

Adjust this value according to the maximum width of your theme’s used up area. For example, if your theme’s used up width is 1000px, you may set the browser width to 1140px (1000 + 140) or slighly higher. Default: 1140px.
