retweet thread · **Released**: 08-21-2009

I'm not sure this would be a "mod", more of a howto, as it is incredibly easy to do. If it's thought of as more of a howto, one of the mods can move it to the appropriate section.

This "mod" will allow your members to retweet your threads without leaving the forum page itself, and show a count of how many times the thread has been "tweeted"

. It involves adding one line to 2 templates, that's it.

in postbit (and postbit_legacy), look for

Code:

$template_hook[postbit_userinfo_left]

and after, add

Code:

<if condition="!$GLOBALS['FIRSTPOSTID']">
<br /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>
</if>

This will put this directly UNDER the username, which should work for most.

Demo of how this works? See this page. Look right under the username.

Updated to show under only the first post!

How do I put it into the Signature like you did on the demo site?

I'll have the code updated for that in a bit. I'm still trying to work through some bugs.
I was using the postbit for a while, but found that when ranks were added, this made it way too busy, so, I moved the button down to the thread tools (not sig), with reply, edit, etc.

I am getting the same problem with the page going to a white screen when replying. Also, the tweets don't update (i.e. the counter doesn't change).

wolfstream · #16 08-29-2009, 03:05 PM

The white page issue isn't an issue with this mod, since it's just a one line addition to the template. There's something wrong with your template.

The tweet counters should update just fine, I've never had an issue with them not doing so. Perhaps there's an issue between your server and tweetmeme

Some of my members have been asking, but does anyone know the correct condition to not show the tweetme button in pm's?
since it would be pointless to have it in pms

Excuse my lack of computer knowledge but does this mod give you the little "retweet" button I saw half way down the sample page?
If so, what pages does it appear on in the forum, and where on the page does it appear?

Thanks

Where would I find postbit to add this text?

Hi
I installed the button on my vbulletin forum but have a button with a ? and a green box below. When you press the button I received an error message.
I am the Administrator of the forum http://www.decoratingforum.com.au
Can you help me to get this working.
I am not a computer person so excuse my ignorance if I am doing something basic wrong

Works great but cant get it working on vbadvanced front page.

Anyone else have this working with vbadvanced?
