Bluesky share in new update?

Hi, folks
having become a bluesky fanboy, thought I’d ask if you’d been able to add that as social sharing option in the latest Newsmag update this month? Thought I’d ask *before* I update since I have a number of code hacks to do whenever update.

Thanks! 🙂

Hi Chris,

That’s already on the to do list, but unfortunately we haven’t added it for either of the themes. And I can’t provide a time estimate.

Maybe you could consider using a sharing plugin which has it? You could deactivate the theme sharing buttons and use a plugin instead. In terms of location I know that some plugins display the buttons on the side of the page automatically. Or if they can be displayed with a shortcode, it could be added in the post template. I will help with it, I’ll test a few plugins, no problem. Do you have specific requirements or you just want sharing buttons anywhere in the post page, with Bluesky included?

Please let me know.

Thank you!

Howdy!
not a priority at all, was just checking… bluesky is growing really fast, but it’s still not mainstream, so I think the only reason it will do well is having ex twitter folk involved, but also not a bunch of sub groups that make mastodon a bit of a pain. Spend your time on better things, was just checking in case this was a pending update that is not a security patch thing. 🙂

I am using at top and bottom like so

No pending updates unfortunately. But this request is on the to do list, we will try to add Mastodon, Threads, Bluesky in the next bigger update. The last one was just a security fix. I am very sorry for this inconvenience.

The website doesn’t seem to load for me https://prnt.sc/7GZXSbcJuGjM Are there problems with it, or maybe there are restrictions?

Thank you!

Hi, Simion
no restrictions, but we have had some recent ddos things going on. Try again if you get bored, but not critical.

I’m just jumping in here to say I’d appreciate if this got bumped up the priority list. Bluesky’s been on the rise for months now and it’s our demo big time.
Thanks!

I get complaints all the time that I don’t have Bluesky in my share options. People think I prefer Twitter. ACK!
PLEASE it’s such a tiny fix, can’t you just add it to “Social Share”?
PLEASE!

I am using this temporarily, but latest version has security issue if using [shortcode], pending updated version in WP repo:

Hey that’s pretty cool! Thanks! Now forgive for asking, but how do I turn off the theme’s “social share”?

under theme panel > social networks > first ‘tab’ at top > social share 🙂

I get to “Social share” and it doesn’t offer an option to turn it off! Even if I uncheck everything, it still shows whatever I had checked last.

are you clicking [save] after you uncheck (toggle off) the display options?
