Miscellaneous Hacks - More Share Options TNG by BOP5 (Facebook, Twitter, Google +1, AddThis) Share Buttons

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5
www.Qapla.com

Current Version: 3.2

More Share Options The Next Generation (v 3.0) is a complete rewrite of my "More Share Options" mod. If you are looking for the old version I am keeping it attached (More Share Options for VB4 by BOP5v261.zip) but it will no longer be updated or supported.

The purpose of the mod is to add additional share "buttons" (Besides Facebook Like) to vBulletin.

Demo: Practically every page of Qapla.com has the "Gold" version enabled.

There is GOLD Version with additional features available at:
http://www.qapla.com/mods/showthread...4-by-BOP5-GOLD

The FREE Version allows sharing to the following sites:

• Facebook (Like OR Recommend with Send Button Option, and with old style "Share" option, Dark Option, Show Faces Option)
• Twitter (Specify "Via" Username, Related Account, default hash tags, and language- With or without counts)
• Google +1 (With or without count, option to use built in Facebook language or specify custom language)
• Add This (Option to input publisher ID for analytics tracking, enable/disable printing, disable duplicate sites option)

The FREE Version also has the following Style Vars for basic styling:

• Height of Share Bar (in Pixels)
• Padding
• Margins

The GOLD Version has all of the above PLUS the following additional share options:

• Pinterest (With or without count, option to specify pinned image, better Pin It sharing button in Beta available for testing)
• Digg (With count or icon only)
• Linked In (With or without count)
• StumbleUpon (Several options with/without counts)
• Reddit (Several options with/without "points")
• Custom Buttons (Add as many additional custom buttons as you want!)

The GOLD Version also has additional Style Vars for complete control of Share Bar Styling:

• Background
• Border

(Both FREE and GOLD can be completely customized by CSS as well if you prefer not to use Style Vars.)

Some of the major differences between More Share Options TNG and the Original Version:

• Share Buttons now show on ALL pages, including pages by 3rd party applications like Arcades and Media Galleries.
• Twitter Count Now WORKS
• Table-less design (All formatting done via CSS/Style Vars)
• Additional built-in Facebook and Twitter options
• New options to disable by Usergroup and/or THIS_SCRIPT value (as well as by Forum and by Style)
• Pinterest Now Integrated (Gold version only)

As with the prior version, fast loading Asynchronous JavaScript is used everywhere possible.

IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE!

If you are "upgrading" from an old version (any version less than 3.0) be aware this version (TNG) has been coded as a completely new and separate mod. It will NOT upgrade an old version.

I suggest if you run an old version of "More Share Options" you disable it via Product Manager in Admin CP.

Install and configure this new mod and make sure it works and you like it.

If you do like it then you can uninstall the old mod from Product Manager.

IMPORTANT - Some users have reported the new mod will not run until the old mod is uninstalled. If you have installed 3.0 and it is not running, please try uninstalling the old mod first.

VBSEO Compatibility:

UPDATE: It has been reported working with VBSEO!

Basically I have no idea how compatible this may be with VBSEO as I don't have access to a VBSEO enabled forum. If you use VBSEO be sure it works as designed (you can share pages.)

Test share 3 pages: The Forum Home, a Thread (showthread), and a Forum (forumdisplay) - if all 3 shares work I am confident the mod will work completely for you. I suggest you use Twitter or Facebook for your testing.

If you do run into VBSEO issues please post here and I will do my best to fix.

General Compatibility:
This has been tested as far back a VB 4.0.8 and as recent as VB 4.2.0. It is expected to work on all VB 4.x.x versions however if you have a very old version of VB please try the FREE version before purchasing the Gold to ensure compatibility. This is not compatible with VB 3.x.

As of version 3.2.0 there is a recommended manual file edit for those running VB 4.1.9 or below.

Please Mark as Installed if you use this.

To be clear the New (TNG) Version is: More Share Options TNG FREE (v 3.2) by BOP5.zip

Any idea how to get it to align correctly?

Would need a link to the actual site to see what is going on with the CSS.

Keep in mind if reading the #834 you will that the image issue mentioned here is not the only problem.

Yours appears to be working now- all sorted?

Sorry, I'm not seeing that at all. I've tried logged in to Facebook with Chrome and logged out of Facebook with IE10.

Maybe it is something added by 3rd party Internet/firewall software. It is a valid warning, lots of people could fake a Fcebook login to steal passwords.

But whatever it is, it is not caused by this mod- it's either from Facebook or 3rd party software.

Hi,

Is it possible to have it inserted inside each post?

[RichieBoy67]

I'm having issues all of a sudden as well.. I only see the word tweet now..no like box. Ive done nothing to the site but have noticed Vbseo is down so I am seeing errors in the VBseo panel..not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Crap, Facebvook connect is not working and neither is the Pinterest link. What is going on?

[Toorak Times]

Yeah me too, for about 6 weeks, the Facebook share buries itself per se and you cant use it, my Facebook connect is broke also.

Don't know why was working just beatiful

[Toorak Times]

I could give you screen shot BOP except I have been hacked again by TH3H4CK, 5 times, when it comes good I'll send you pics

[RichieBoy67]

Any chance this has to do with Vbseo going down? My PInterest button isnt working either for some reason..

If Facebook Connect isn't working then it could be Facebook changes causing the issue- the mod is still working fine on my site- www.qapla.com/mods/ for Facebook and Pinterest and Twitter.

That site is still 4.2.1 but it also works fine on my 4.2.2 test site.

For Facebook Connect be sure you have made this fix if you aren't on 4.2.2 yet-

If Facebook or Twitter buttons aren't showing it means likely some kind of JavaScript error is blocking their execution on your page- perhaps broken VBSEO is the issue but I don't know for sure, I've never had VBSEO and have no way to test against it. I do know they are working fine on my non-VBSEO sites.
