Social Share adds very simple, configurable social network share links to nodes

Links can be added for these social networks:

  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Google Buzz
  • Myspace
  • MSN Live
  • Yahoo
  • Linked In
  • Orkut
  • Digg (as of the 1.2 release)
  • Delicious (as of the 1.6 release)
  • Reddit (7.x-2.x-dev)
  • StumbleUpon (7.x-2.x-dev)
  • Furl (7.x-2.x-dev)
  • Hyves (7.x-2.x-dev)

Links are added to all nodes of the types configured to allow it, and appear with a class name based on the social network being shared to.

Example:

<a class="social-share-facebook" href="...">Facebook</a>
<a class="social-share-twitter" href="...">Twitter</a>
<a class="social-share-googlebuzz" href="...">Google Buzz</a>
<a class="social-share-myspace" href="...">Myspace</a>
<a class="social-share-msnlive" href="...">MSN Live</a>
<a class="social-share-yahoo" href="...">Yahoo</a>
<a class="social-share-linkedin" href="...">LinkedIn</a>
<a class="social-share-orkut" href="...">Orkut</a>
<a class="social-share-digg" href="...">Digg</a>
<a class="social-share-delicious" href="...">Delicious</a>
<a class="social-share-reddit" href="...">Reddit</a>
<a class="social-share-stumbleupon" href="...">StumbleUpon</a>
<a class="social-share-furl" href="...">Furl</a>
<a class="social-share-hyves" href="...">Hyves</a>
etc.

This facilitates styling the links as icons, or whatever best suits the site.

Current Status

As of Sept. 20, 2011

I'm working on the 7.x-2.x branch, once I've got the initial features for the first 2.x release fleshed out, I'll backport all of the new functionality to 6.x. Upon release of the 2.x branch, the 1.x branch for both D6 & D7 will be considered deprecated, and only urgent bug fixes will be addressed,

Important

7.x-1.9 has a syntax error preventing proper functionality. Please skip the 7.x-1.9 release and move to 7.x-1.10 (This does not affect 6.x-1.9)

7.x-1.6 has a syntax error preventing installation. Please upgrade to 7.x-1.7 release. (This does not affect the 6.x-1.6 release)

Updates

New in the 1.4 release (D6 & D7):

  • A block with the share links

New in the 1.5 release (D6 & D7):

  • Titles truncated when sharing to twitter, if title and url exceed 140chars.
  • When the Shorten module is installed, URLs will be shortened for all the share links.

  • Added Delicious service as a sharing option
  • Updated URL structure for Digg,
  • Updated URL structure for Twitter
