Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I am working on a Spanish language website and would like to know if there is a way to make the ShareThis module work in Spanish.
If not, is there another module that has similar functionality but in Spanish?
Thanks very much!

sansserif CreditAttribution: sansserif commentedWell, nobody got back to me on this but it seems that the AddThis button (http://drupal.org/project/addthis) may be a better choice as it detects what country a user is browsing from and translates the content automatically to that country's native language. This still doesn't really solve my problem because I am building a Spanish language site in the US so for Spanish speakers in the US, the text will still be in English... so I still have to see if there are Spanish translation .po files available for this module. It also appears to be a lot more customizable in terms of layout so I think I will give AddThis a try instead of ShareThis anyway.

dalinI suspect that ShareThis is caching things heavily on their end. Come back in a day and see if it's different.

Can you please check why the patch failed? I have checked the patch you have submitted and IMHO, I think, there is no need of additional variable
$lang_code
. What do you think?Comment #13
yogeshmpawarPatch is good to go.

navneet0693 CreditAttribution: navneet0693 as a volunteer and at QED42 commented@bhavikshah9 yup you are right ! There should be no need of that. I will re-work on it to remove the code. The patched failed because, there is no tests written for this module in D7 version.
