Prior to the release of Digg Digg v4.5.1, I used the Floating Display option in the left-hand margin of my blog. Since the upgrade, the buttons have disappeared. None of the settings I've tried fix the problem. I've switched to the Normal Display temporarily, but I really prefer to use the Floating Display.
I'm using WordPress 3.1 with Catalyst Theme Version: Catalyst 1.1.2.
Help!
Having the same problem with my site. We're using the latest release of Wordpress and just upgraded to Digg Digg v4.5.1 this morning. Upgrading deleted my settings on the previous version and once I reconfigured the plugin the floating window doesn't follow me down the page as I scroll.
It IS NOW working on my site. Sorry for the trouble!

Show me your not working URL, with floating enabled.
OK ... floating display is enabled for posts and following is the URL for a post ...

i can see the left floating bar nicely, it may caused by your browser cache or WP-Super-Cache. Try clean it.

I can see floating display on both of your website.
One more test, when you visiting your page, can you try logout from your WP? Wonder why only author itself can't see the floating bar?
Can you both see the floating bar at this page?

I registered because I had the same problem, but have since found a solution, to my problem at least.
With the latest upgrade (4.5.1), I lost my Digg Digg as well.
When I clicked to set up normal display, I saw this:
Fatal error: dd_page_for_normal_display() [function.dd-page-for-normal-display]: The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition "DD_Sphinn" of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ unserialize() gets called or provide a __autoload() function to load the class definition in /home/sdname/public_html/wp-content/plugins/digg-digg/include/template/dd-template-normal-display.php on line 63
Same happened for floating.
What I did to fix it was delete the "sorting" foreach loop in the code which made it so that none of the options showed up BUT the page did display. With the page loaded, I could "enabled" it. I put the code back, reloaded it and it worked fine.
So it seems that if it's never been enabled or there are no options are you try to access the page, it breaks. Hacking and then enabling it fixes it.
Now I have the options page and the floating links appearing normally.
I'm clueless!
In response to your question as to whether or not I can see floating display at this link > http://www.mkyong.com/blog/digg-digg-wordpress-plugin/ ... I don't see it.
I went to a friend's house this morning to check my site (without signing-in as Admin) ... different IP address ... different Internet service provider ... accessed site with Internet Explorer. No floating display!
At this point all I can say is this ... the floating display was fine just minutes before I logged into the WP dashboard ... saw an update was available for DiggDigg ... and loaded it. Haven't seen floating display since.
I'm not a programmer or webmaster so can't begin to understand solution offered by TyCam.

@TyCam,
Sphinn support inform that the counts is no longer exist, moved to Serpd, so the sphin button need to remove from latest released. Look like your upgrade didnt fire the upgrade process, wonder why? may i know your WP version? For your case, just click on the reset button will do.
@susanr,
Really surprise you can't see the floating bar at http://www.mkyong.com/blog/digg-digg-wordpress-plugin/ as well, FYI, i tested with IE8, FF3.x and FF4.0, Chrome, all worked well, are you using IE6!?
Nvm, notice you are using other alternative plugin, sorry, can't help u much.
