Current URL inside Hyperlink

[Speedy2000]

I'm basically attempting to create a 'share to Twitter'-button. It uses this code:

<a href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Currently reading http://www.website.com/postx" title="Click to send this page to Twitter!" target="_blank">Share on Twitter</a>

Now I want the code to automatically insert the current URL (of the current thread) (replacing the www.website.com/postx).

Because I have vbSEO installed, I tried to use the variable $_SERVER[VBSEO_URI] (but also the original vBulletin variable http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]). But apparently the link doesn't translate any of those variables into actual links. Maybe because the variable is placed inside the quotation marks.

Is there a way to have it properly translate the variable to a usable URL?

Try with this:

PHP Code:

<a href="http://twitter.com/home/?status=http://www.forum.com/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}, {vb:raw pageinfo_post}}#post{vb:raw post.postid}" target="_blank">
<img src="http://www.forum.com/images/bookmark/twitter_32.png" alt="Share in twitter" style="border-style: none"/>
</a> 


This will share the current post link and will be converted to vBSEo links as well.

I've included a image wich can be used with this post at 32px but you can use any image that you want.

That's great, thank you very much

I've also inserted the Thread Title into the tweet by adding the variable {vb:raw thread.title}. But the URL isn't converted into a vBSEO link, instead it just uses the 'normal' vBulletin links. Does vBSEO have its own variables that I could use?

Yes, vBSEO have it's own variables, take a look at here: http://www.vbseo.com/f2/vbseo-functi...sibility-1662/ so you can check the extensibility.
