Submit to Twitter and Facebook · **Released**: 11-21-2009

This is an update to vB4.0 Beta 3 of my Submit to Twitter and FB mod https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=217117

See screenshot for example of where it goes and how it looks. Keeping up with the latest in social networking keeps traffic flowing to your site.

This can all be added at once or you may add only the one's you want. Additionally, this will probably work in any version of vB. At the moment it cannot be turned off for specific forums, I still have to work out the conditional changes for vb4 so it will appear in all forums for now.

In the SHOWTHREAD template find:

Code:

<li class="popupmenu nohovermenu" id="threadtools">

Add this ABOVE:

Code:

			<!-- Begin Share FB -->
			<li class="popupmenu nohovermenu" id="sharefb">
				<h6><a class="popupctrl" href="javascript://">Share</a></h6>
				<ul class="popupbody popuphover">
					<!-- Facebook Share -->
          <li>
          <a name="fb_share" type="icon_link" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php">Facebook</a><script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share" type="text/javascript"></script>
          </li>
          <!-- / Facebook Share -->
					<li>
          <!-- Twitter Share -->
          <script type="text/javascript">
          var twtTitle  = document.title;
          var twtUrl    = location.href;
          var maxLength = 140 - (twtUrl.length + 1);
          if (twtTitle.length > maxLength) {
          twtTitle = twtTitle.substr(0, (maxLength - 3))+'...';
          }
          var twtLink = 'http://twitter.com/home?status='+encodeURIComponent(twtTitle + ' ' + twtUrl);
          document.write('<a href="'+twtLink+'" target="_blank"'+'>Tweet This!<'+'/a>');
          </script>
          <!-- / Twitter Share -->
          </li>
				</ul>
			</li>
      <!-- End Share FB -->

Hi all,

I only use FaceBook and so I thought I would just use the FB part of this. Here is small piece of code I added and it worked.

Code:

<!-- Facebook Share -->
          <li>
          <a name="fb_share" type="icon_link" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php">Facebook</a><script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share" type="text/javascript"></script>
          </li>
<!-- Facebook Share -->

Dunno why it worked but it does. I am not a coder but I thought I would share this. My setup is in my signature.

Works in 4.0.6 but I have a problem with the Title and Thread Preview.....when I click on the share link for facebook, it all the time shows the plain URL and nothing more. I also don't know how I can add my forum logo picture into this. THX Great mod

Popa Andrei · #84 11-10-2010, 11:30 AM

in 4.0.8 and the code above

Code:

<li class="popupmenu" id="threadtools">

Yes it's working fine

And how about the image of Twitter?

Also I have seen one forum, who has Digg link button also.

thanks

cpvrx · #88 03-24-2011, 04:51 AM

Do you have the code for this to work in the cms/blog system?

edie · #89 05-06-2011, 07:33 PM

Does this apply to adding a Twitter button to blog and article posts (like Facebook currently)
Is this for the latest VBulletin 4?

Thank you.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
