Show Thread Enhancements - Addthis / Sharethis Bookmark Integration

Loved the addition of bookmarks in vbulletin but hated the way they were placed at the bottom of the thread, each time I read a thread I immediately found myself scrolling to the top again. I tried moving the bookmarks to the top but didn't like the way they looked.

I came across http://www.addthis.com which allows you to add a handy piece of code to your website that allows you to bookmark a thread to any of the large bookmark sites, 34 different site's in total with out any mess or cluttering up the postbit area with tons of images. Plus addthis.com track all clicks and pages that have been submitted from your site. sharethis.com is a site that works exactly the same way.

AddThis and Sharethis is already on hundreds of thousands of websites including TIME Magazine, Oracle, TechCrunch, Freewebs, Entertainment Weekly, Topix, Lonely Planet, MySpace, PGA Tour, Tower Records, Squidoo, Zappos, FOX, ABC, CBS just to name a few and could be on your vbulletin forum within minutes!!

Demo click here then a thread to view demo


Quick and easy installation:
register an account at http://www.addthis.com and log in, once logged in click Get your button code! and scroll down to and choose from a number of different buttons and get your code.

in SHOWTHREAD

Disregard, I just read the post above that indicates I have to register to see it.

you don't need to register to view it. I just made a new style for my forum recently and haven't finished coding it. Try this style for a demo http://whatsyourview.net/forum/index.php?styleid=32
