I set up the dev version of service_links to take advantage of the new pinterest widget - unfortunately, the 'description' field as entered in the widget settings isn't carried over to the pinterest 'pin it' button link.

The media parameter field works, or would work if I had a single image field to work from. I have been struggling for a few hours trying to get a single image from a multi value image field token to work in this parameter settings. After upgrading token and entity to the dev versions to get individual values from a multi value field into a token (http://drupal.org/node/1058856), I'm still not able to get a single image url value token from a multi value field. I think the reason is that the patch to entity/token isn't working properly yet.

Is there any workaround in the meantime for pinterest media parameter image settings? A "pin it" button is pretty useless when you can't specify the image media parameter, since people mostly pin images.

  1. what you entered as description token?
  2. have you tried http://drupal.org/project/token_custom ? An user succeded with this, otherwise you may write a custom token.

The issue you mentioned is about automatism that we don't need if using one of the solution mentioned in 2).

I've been playing around with Custom Tokens module to get the 1st image of multiple for pinterest button and haven't gotten it right yet. Does anyone have a link or a hint?

I wasn't able to get it working, rfarm. I ended up writing my own custom panels pane with the pinterest code in it and populated it by hand with info from a node_load().
