What is it?

The following modification adds a submission button to your showthread template that allows users to submit your threads to TagSum.com. Tagsum is a social media and social network web site that is growing quite rapidly.

Why should I submit to TagSum?

Simplly stated, Traffic! TagSum is growing, and it's becoming a great way to drive extra traffic to your forum. On top of that, they have released a revenue sharing system that allows you to earn adsense revenue every time you submit a story to their site. This way you earn both exposure and money when you make use of the site.

Great, how do I install it?

This part is easy. Simply find the showthread template and look for the following:

<!-- / controls above postbits -->

<!-- toolbar -->


In between those two paste the following html code:


<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-bottom-width:0px">
<tr>
<td class="thead" width="100%">
<a href="http://www.tagsum.com/news/submit?url=$vboptions[bburl]/showthread.php?t=$threadid" target="_blank">Tag This Thread:&nbsp;</a>
<!-- TagSum -->
<a href="http://www.tagsum.com/news/submit?url=$vboptions[bburl]/showthread.php?t=$threadid" target="_blank"><img class="inlineimg"

src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/tagsumlogo.png" alt="TagSum" border="0" /></a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Now all you need to do is upload the attached image to your /images/buttons directory

That's it! Let me know if you have any questions or problems.

Screenshot of this in action. It's easy to place pretty much anywhere of course.
