vb.org Archive - Add-On Releases - v3 Arcade Integrate Facebook and Twitter

What does this do?

This will add a Twitter button to your arcade playing area (v3ARCADE_PLAY template), allowing the user to update their Twitter status about your arcade/game they are playing. It will also add a Facebook button to allow publishing to Facebook and a Facebook comments box (optional) to the same area.

And it will add a Facebook comments box to your highscore table where users can publish scores/comments to their Facebook wall.

(see attached images).

Open your v3ARCADE_PLAY template

Find:

Code:

</div>

            </div>

            <!-- /right area-->

        </td>

    </tr>

</table>

Add above:

Code:

<div class="collapse"><h3 class="blockhead">Share A Link On Twitter</h3>

<div class="blockrow" align="center">

Share a link to {vb:raw game.title} on Twitter<br/><br/>

<a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></div></div>

<div class="collapse"><h3 class="blockhead">Share This Game Link on Facebook</h3>

<div class="blockrow" align="center">

<script>function fbs_click() {u=location.href;t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');return false;}</script><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<;url>" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank"><img src="{vb:raw vboptions.arcadeimages}/Facebook-Social-Bar-128.png"></a><br>If you like {vb:raw game.title} you can share our game link with your Facebook friends.</div></div>

You will need to replace APP_ID with your Facebook Application ID (both instances). If you use a different image you will also need to alter this line <img src="{vb:raw vboptions.arcadeimages}/Facebook-Social-Bar-128.png">

Extract the contents of the facebook.zip archive. Upload fb_comment.css to your forum root and Facebook-Social-Bar-128.png to your images/arcade folder (or if you are using your own image upload it to images/arcade)

Change log version 1.0 to 1.01
Update code to fix 'The comments plugin requires an href parameter' error in Facebook Comments plugin.

If anyone wants to further develop any of my addons, you are free to do so.
