Add-On Releases - Publish VBulletin Stuff to FaceBook

I found this share link on facebook that will help your users and urself share threads, posts (Basically where ever you put this code on the VB page they will be able to send it to there Facebook Profile).

http://www.facebook.com/share_partners.php
Click this link and you will know what to do
Just Copy the Code and Put it anywhere on your Vbulletin Page

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is How to Publish a Thread to FaceBook Keeping the Facebook Publish Button on a First Post of a Thread Only (Follow Steps):-

1-AdminCP
2- Styles & Templates
3- Search in Templates
4- Look for Postbit_legacy or Postbit (Which Ever one you Use)
5- In there look for the code:

<if condition="$show['quickreply'] AND !$show['threadedmode']">
<a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow" id="qr_$post[postid]" onclick="return false">
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/quickreply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[quick_reply_to_this_message]" border="0" />
</a>
</if>

6- Then Add this Code below it:

<if condition="$forum[forumid]=='10,20,30'">
<else />
<if condition="$post[postcount] == 1">
<script>function fbs_click() {u=location.href;t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)
+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');return false;}</script><a href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=
<http://www.YOURSITE.com>" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank">
<img src="http://www.YOURSITE.com/FaceBookIMAGEPATH" alt="Share on facebook" style="border-style: none"/>
</a>
</if>
</if>

The RED Font Indicates the Forums You wish to EXCLUDE
(lol traditional way I dont know if there is any other way)
The GREEN Font Needs to be changed too
Save and you are done.

My photoshop knowledge is limited but I would be happy to help you create one, just send me how you want it to be and I will try to create one for you

In the Screenshot you can see how the facebook button is after the quickreply button now.

My forum has VB 3.8.1 on it.

Hiayaaaaa!! thanks, just tried some more, but no luck.. also another question, how do I place the button in any post of the thread and not only the first one?
I immagine the situation of an user willing to share on FB one image or video found in a post, if it's the first post, then well, but if it's #276? maybe adding the button in every post will share on fb a direct link to the thread/post with the preview of the image or video contained in that post.
that would be a massive attention getter on FB for the board..
thank you for your time! I really appreciate!

Greetings Cobra! Any news or too busy to check it out?
Whatever, thanks anyway!!

[itsheinz]

very nice ..thanks for this

[realdx]

Greetings Cobra, hate to bug, but 20 days passed by since your "I'll be back in an hour".. please dont take it bad, I really appreciate the work, and always be gratefull, more than this I have no intention to argue, I guess you have better things to do.. and I guess "whatever" is a better thing to do than this.. hehehehe but an update would be appreciated, even a negative one, so I just stop pass & pass & pass by to see if something happened.. probably is just not possible, I'm fine with it, just let me know.. thank you again!

edit: I was also wondering if it was possible to have the button at the top of the first post instead of having it at the end.. thx!

realdx man im realy sorry for all of this , the problem I have just started a new job and cant wait to go back hom and relax a bit, I'm realy sory as I have forgoten all about this, I usually have off on wednesday, so probably Wednesday Night I will work on ur requests I promise, please forgive me mio amico

Mean while please PM your msn or yahoo messenger or xifre or wat ever you use to talk to people, i think it will be easier to discuss ther as everytemplate has different design then the other

[realdx]

Hi there Cobra, nice to read you back.. just take your time. no probs at all! Sorry but I dont use any chat app.. I suffer of bad tendinitis due to mouse/pc abuse and one of the first thing I had to cut were those chit-chat proggies..

[Brandon Sheley]

nice mod, thanks for sharing

[steeler7]

I have a question about this Mod. anyone could probably help answer my question...

Does this Mod enable more than Just a link back to my message board and a small font title of the thread like the social bookmarks "share" feature? I'm looking for something that will publish perhaps entire threads or posts at Facebook, or something more than what the Social bookmark "share" feature for vbulletin does.

Thanks

I have added:

<else />

At the begining and:

</if> at the end

This is not working for me.... the icon to facebook shows still in the forums that i put in the code.......
