27 Thoughts on “Artiss Social Share”

   I read the instructions but I’m not entirely clear on how to implement this. The plugin is activated, but if I paste <a href=”">Share on Facebook onto the end of my post nothing show up. Where am I suppesed to add this code?

   i.e. I don’t know what this means: The code for Simple Facebook Link should be added to the bottom of appropriate post/page templates within your theme (and in the case of posts, within the loop).

   thanks.

     Hi, thanks for the comment. Sorry to hear you’re having problems.

     If you don’t know how to add code to “the loop” then it can be quite difficult to explain. Here’s the WordPress page on it – http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop. The code for this plugin needs to be added somewhere within “the loop” but where is up to you – it depends where you want this to display. You will have “the loop” within any page or post code you have within your theme – this will include index.php, single.php and page.php.

     If all else fails, contact me via my form and attach the code of the page that you’re attempting to add the code to. I’ll show you exactly where the code goes and try and give you a better explanation of why.

     You need to add a simple TARGET to the link.

     So here’s the example with the TARGET added…

     <a href="<?php simple_facebook_link(''); ?>" target="_blank">
     Share on Facebook</a>

   Thx David !

   But i want open a new window in this format > 620x440px !

   How i can to do it ?

   Thx !
   • David on May 29, 2009 at 10:57 am said:

     In this case you’ll need to use JavaScript.

     The following should work (although I’ve not tested it)…

     <a href="" onClick="window.open('<?php simple_facebook_link(''); ?>',
     'Share on Facebook','width=620,height=440')">Share on Facebook</a>

     More details about how to do this can be found here (or, in fact, Google “open window with JavaScript”…

   Works great, thank you

   You have a section at the top left of the page that says “Find Me Online” with all the different places you have profiles. What WordPress plugin is that? I presume that is functionally different than say Add to Any.
   • David on June 24, 2009 at 9:21 pm said:

     Hi Jeff, that’s a plugin of my own. However, I’ve never made it available to the public as I’ve pretty much hardcoded the links for myself. I’m currently working on a social sharing plugin for post entries, so this may be a natural progression for me – to launch this plugin “properly”!

   Nice plugin, but not show Facebook Image, only Text link, Too Bad. Can you make this plugin show Facebook Image before the Text link.
   • David on June 29, 2009 at 10:22 am said:

     Iman, the text is not part of the plugin. All the plugin does is return a link – it’s completely up to you whether you assign this link to some text or an image. There are many Facebook icons to be found on the ‘net, so simply grab one of those and wrap the plugin around a link to that.
8. Iman on June 30, 2009 at 5:26 am said:

   I think you plugin miss spelling, below I paste the link code froum your Plugin… http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://hariansib.com/? See you make sharer not share, this make wrong function with some case.
   • David on June 30, 2009 at 6:11 am said:

     Iman, that link works fine for me. Although producing slightly different screens, both share.php and sharer.php should work – sharer.php is the one that Facebook uses in its examples, and hence why I’ve used it.

     Are you saying that this link does NOT work but does if you replace it with share.php?
9. Iman on June 30, 2009 at 7:48 am said:

   Links Works, But Cancel button didnt work well, the windows still open after we push the Cancel Button. Now I have replaced the shares with share, and Cancel button did work well now.
10. David on June 30, 2009 at 9:41 am said:

    You’re right Iman. It appears that the share page has kept step with recent Facebook changes but sharer hasn’t. I’m looking at a change in the code anyway, so may possibly implement a change to sharer.

    First of all, thanks for this wonderful plugin. I am going to use it on the new version of my norwegian website about waterpolo, http://www.vannpolo.org.

    However, when I validated my site after activating your plugin the Facebook link caused a validation error. This is because of the ampersand in the URL. I fixed it easily by changing “&” to “&”, which W3C recommends, on line 32.

    Can you please implement this change in your plugin, so I don’t have to do this manually for every update?

    Einar
    • David on July 15, 2009 at 9:26 pm said:

      Hi Einar, thanks for the comments.

      Yes, you’re right about the validation. It’s my intention in the next few weeks to go through all my plugins and give them a good “spring clean” – ensuring validation is one thing I’ll be doing. I’ve had a number of suggestions recently about various plugins that will be useful to implement with others too, so these are the kinds of things I’ll be doing.

    Thanks David for a simple plugin. It is so cool and I had no problem installing it especially considering I just started using WordPress for my new Travelogue.

    Hi David,

    What’s the “Find Me Online” widget at the top of your page? It’s Brilliant.
    • David on October 12, 2009 at 8:41 am said:

      I get asked this a lot.

      However, although it is a plugin of my own, it’s not a “proper” released one, as it has my links hard-coded into it. For this to be viable I’d have to put an admin screen, etc, in it.

      But, if anybody wants the plugin to modify themselves with their own site links, then let me know and I’ll happily email it to you.

    This works in my homepage posts where it appears in all the posts. but if i click on one of the post titles, the “Share on Facebook” is gone…

    How can I include it? Thanks.
    • David on June 9, 2010 at 8:20 am said:

      This is because you’ve added the code to index.php in your theme folder but not single.php – the latter is the theme template used to display an individual post. There are others as well – http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Themes#Theme_Files

    Hi,

    I want to put SFL at the end of every post.

    Where in the loop code should I put it?
    • David on June 9, 2010 at 10:37 pm said:

      The beginning of the loop is probably the line <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> and the loop will probably be an endwhile statement sometime later. Placed the code before the endwhile and it should appear as the last thing in the post.
