vb.org Archive - Miscellaneous Hacks - Like it? Share it! Neat Social Bookmarks Add-on

Hello

I created a special way of implementing social bookmarks to my forum www.AdSenseExperts.com

They are shown in a block left to the forum (I use a fixed width forum though!).
To prevent an overlapping with the forum when the browser window is small or resized there is a JavaScript check which removes the bookmarks or places them within the thread options box when viewing a thread.

See Screenshot attachments

Please NOTE:

I use a fixed width of 900px for my forum so this mod is primarily for forums width a fixed with!
jquery is needed for the browser size check. If you implemented jquery already, skip step 2.
I use a modified footer so I can't promise 100% that it will work like I posted it here but it should :)
This mod is released AS IS! No support will be provided!

<!-- Browser Window Size Check -->

<script type="text/javascript">

    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

        // Show social voter only if the browser window is wide enough.

        if( $(window).width() >= 1110 ) 

            $('#socialbookies').show();

                        $('.socialbookies-small').hide();

 

        // Update when user resizes browser.

        $(window).resize(function() {

            if( $(window).width() < 1110 ) {

                $('#socialbookies').hide();

                                $('.socialbookies-small').show();

            } else {

                $('#socialbookies').show();

                                $('.socialbookies-small').hide();

            }

        });

    });

</script>



<!-- Plus One Asynchronous Snippet -->

<script type="text/javascript">

  (function() {

    var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;

    po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js';

    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);

  })();

</script>

I uploaded the image for "follow me on Twitter". You need to upload the image to your /image/ directory.

I marked all IDs you need to adapt to your accounts in red.

Also In the JavaScript part for the browser window size check you need to change 1110 (px) to the browser window width where you want the bookmarks to be removed.
