Title: Like and Share buttons in posts
Post by: Teryylinks on August 01, 2015, 06:43:02 PM
I just upgraded my forum to version 2.0.10.

Please what mod do I use to insert "Like" and "Share" in my posts? as it is on simplemachines.org. Or is there any other better way aside mod? Please help with it.

Also, what mod do I use to put Facebook share and Facebook Like as well as Twitter share and follow on my SMF forum like it is.

sm.org does not have a like or share mod installed. you can check the mod site and you may find a few mods that will do what you want.

Shares the first topic only:

Add Facebook Like, Tweet, and Google +1 (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3559)
Social Bookmarks (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=967)
Add & Create Social Media Icons To Profiles (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3304)

Even I am looking for something that shares member post to social media sites.

then you should be posting in the mod requests board not the support board.

I got an old mod. https://github.com/MissAllSunday/ShareThis it does share specific messages rather than the whole topic and should still work on 2.0.10, just make sure to unzip the download and re-zip it removing the double folder.

This is great Suki thank you for your reply. I just tested your custom 'Share This Topic' Mod on 2.0.9 version on my local install. It still works after 3 years! :laugh: That's what I call superb future proof coding. They don't make mods like these anymore.

The bare bones are all there and everything works as its suppose to, it just needs a lot of TLC. You've done most of the work for us. If its not too much work, I on plan taking this mod to the next level hopefully and make it do something along the lines of this and add font awesome icons:

Currently I am building an advance responsive nav but I was looking for this solution for a long time so this will have to wait then I need to convert a forum into a responsive theme.
