Issue Summary
I have implemented the Addthis module. However i am having some issues with it. When i click on add to facebook it doesnt pass on the link of the current page i am on. It requires me to manually enter the link into facebook. I have noticed other implementations of Addthis work fine passing the current page url to facebook.
Also....is there a way to populate the body of an email with the node title and url of the page the addthis button is clicked on?
Right now, nothing in the email form is populated.

On the site I've just implemented this on, for nodes that have the AddThis button added via $links it works fine, but for the two places where we've used the Block it isn't working. For instance, a Twitter status message ends up as:
[TITLE]: [URL] via @addthisNote that is the actual text... TITLE and URL in square brackets... it's not that I've edited it to be more generic. I have used alternate code provided in another issue in my template.php to enable support for the AddThis toolbox; don't know if that is somehow related.

Feeling a bit stupid... I now see in the code I copied there is an obvious default which is [TITLE] and [URL] which I am clearly supposed to put in there for when it cannot find the node url and title, which it couldn't on the panels and front pages, of course—which is where I was using the block. So for me the issue was with the code, not the block, and the context in which it was being used.

#735688: AddThis 3.0 dev candidate
This has to do with changing the logic of shared urls. It will not be changed for 2.x branch because it would break the module for some current users.
