Submission buttons. eg Clesto, Digg, Del icio us.

Submission Buttons.

By Adrian at Dream It.
Inspired by SecondV, from vBulletin version v3.4.5.

What does it do?
This small template modification adds a button to Clesto, Digg and others, when clicked it will take you to the submission pages on the chosen site,

and it will automatically have the URL loaded on the submission form.

A great way to boost your traffic.

Notes:
Thanks to ShackMaster for the Spurl icon. It has being included in the vBsubmission.zip

Installalation

Download the vBsubmission.zip

Extract it.

Upload all the images to /images/buttons/ on your server.

That's it, easy.

Enjoy.

Is there anyway to add some more customization to this?

I'm looking to only have it only show up in a certain forum and to only show up on the first post. I would also like to click a checkbox to even decide if it should show up in that post or not

[Gastongr]

Great hack!
I added it in the top of showthread.php
Screenshot attached.

An excellent piece!

I have added this to my "News" vBAdvanced module. It only appears within the module at top of each article.

Simple replace all occurance of $threadid with $news[threadid] and and $thread[title] with $news[title].

Insert it in adv_portal_newsbits style template under:

$news[dateposted] - <phrase 1="$vboptions[bburl]/member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$news[postuserid]" 2="$news[postusername]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>

Very nice, i made one for my site a month back with a drop down menu.. if somebody need it i can share it

Excellent hack Adrian.

[ForumDog]

Thank you! I redid some of the graphics, added one or two others and restricted it to just a drop-down in the first post since there's not much point giving over bandwidth to links in every single post. If anyone wants to grab something, feel free.

[Hemanth]

Any hacks available to show a digg button in the thread. ie. The digg i button woth the number of diggs & an option to add a digg.

[rezapci]

[Hypocrisy]

Will this work under vBulletin 3.5.x?

[Hypocrisy]

When using the threadbit modification, "threadtag", "clesto" and digg doesn't show any icons using Internet Explorer, how come?


Edit: 'cause they're pngs?! *duh*
