Miscellaneous Hacks - Share Buttons Bar by BOP5 (Facebook Like, Twitter, Google+1, and more share options)

This is the VB 3.8 version of my very popular "More Share Options" for VB4.

Since VB4 already had Facebook built in the mod was called "More Share Options." But since VB 3.8 (and earlier) do not have any share options built in the mod is called "Share Buttons Bar." but they do very much the same thing.

This mod will automatically add a bar to your navbar with many popular dedicated share buttons available including:

• Facebook (Like/Recommend/Send)
• Twitter Tweet
• Digg
• Google +1
• Linked In
• Stumble Upon
• Add This (which contains hundreds of more sites!)

There are no other mods available on vBulletin.org with as many share options, nor a simple install-able product with no manual edits needed in most cases.

In the event you want to make manual template edits instructions are included on how to do so.

I am using this mod on my forum, http://www.juot.net/forums/ but only in threads and I have manually included it in my SHOWTHREAD template only. For a better idea of what this mod really looks like see the screenshot.

This mod will allow you to share any page of your forum including forumhome, forumdisplay, threads, social groups, calendars, albums, pictures, arcade games, blogs- any page that has the navbar on it can be shared. In this respect it is actually far more useful than my 4.x version.

All Share Buttons are set to load JavaScript Asynchronously so it will never slow down a page load!

Thanks, this is now displaying on the index but how do I get it to work within thread, for posts etc?

[BirdOPrey5]

If you put the code in the navbar template it should be showing on every page that has the navbar, including threads and posts. Is it not?

[Mishima]

Its showing on every page within navbar but not on each post within a thread

[BirdOPrey5]

It's not supposed to show on each post. You are sharing the entire thread, not each post.

Thanks for the PM, Downloaded and am checking it out on our board.

Very nice, but as I get more than a bit of traffic from reddit I need this included in the main listing before adding this addon.

[EvilLS1]

This is a neat little mod. Thanks! Instead of putting it below the navbar, I used a conditional to place the bar just below the first post of every thread. Very cool!

[jlew24asu]

is there a way to put this mod in threads?

[BirdOPrey5]

Yes, you can choose to do manual template edits and just add $more_share_options to wherever you want in your showthread template.

When I tweet, it doesn't update the counter; it stays at zero. Does it only count other peoples' tweets, or is it just not counting?
