I have installed the library and blog package, as well as enabling all related plugins.
I have visited the blog options and set to :
- do not link title (also set in article)
- exclude categories (other than my blog category)
- show social buttons

outcome
the categories are showing correctly
The social buttons will not show up at all
The title is still linked

I also do not want to show any profile link or badge at all.

Can someone please direct me to some documentation that covers these topics , or tell me what i am doing wrong?

Latest version of Joomla! installed on protistar template.
