- NewsmagSharing buttons
Hello tagdiv,
I would like to know if social sharing is available for images/photos in a lightbox. Meaning, if we create a image carousel/gallery or a media grid (using VC), when the image open up in lightbox, can we show sharing icons for each individual image?
Actually I am looking for sharing photos using lightbox view to Whatsapp.
Regards.
If anyone has managed to crack this and wouldn’t mind sharing the code? It would be MAJORLY helpful.
Regards.
Hi
If you’re using mobile theme plugin you need to edit td_module_single_mob.php file and modify the code for sharing buttons: http://screencast.com/t/OQG7Y0Ilf
Thanks!
Thanks all good now, except for the mobile theme. Where can we edit the files for the mobile theme sharing options?: 
Cheers!
Hi
1. You need to select a taxonomy in theme panel cpt & taxonomy: http://screencast.com/t/3QrpPCYqSv – http://screencast.com/t/SViKnsvhSE
2,3 Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css:
.single-glossary .td-post-date, .single-glossary .td-post-sharing-top {
display: none;
}
Thanks!
Buna
Tema nu are o optiune care sa afiseze nuarul de share-uri ale unui post. Pentru a crea acesta functionlitate sunt necesare unele schimbari in codul temei sau ca alternativa poti incerca un plugin. Nu putem recomanda un anume plugin fiindca nu am facut asemenea teste dar poti incerca unul dintre cele presentate in acest articol: http://www.shoutmeloud.com/best-social-sharing-wordpress-plugins.html
Multumesc!
What would I need to do to change the font size for the footer info content text ?
Site is http://www.thegoodmood.it
Example here

Hello there,
no featured image is showing on the desktop view – not in the homepage (Newsmagazine Layout used, changed nothing), nor in the posts.
Most of the images are og:tagged, but none appear reagrdless.
https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1nqIc-xS-7jWQcWG7czBhixB4rPhamMbxPFaw2928YSM/edit?usp=sharing
On the mobile version (the “as is” version you find when you first install the theme) everything looks fine.
https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/165HQCDKdxSpDLE2hf66FVi75TB-DycfQE2QpuT4YjFA/edit?usp=sharing
Is there any known fix to this? Of course the URL is now showing the old theme.
Thanks !
Will you mind sharing the site name so that I can check out?
Hi,
Well if you insert the shortcode you should remove the plugin implementation . I’m not sure how the plugin works though. Mayabe it converts the standard comments to the fb comments in which case you need to move the theme comments from the single files from here: http://screencast.com/t/3pwbHj1LZZRu and move the in the loop-single files under the social sharing like so: http://screencast.com/t/vxlZryul
What I do know is that you can implement them from the code without using plugins. Here is a topic that explains how I did it:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/facebook-comments-2/
Hope this helps
Thanks.
Hi,
Well please check the file again as there are 2 sections of code that are identical. Scroll a bit further down and you will see another identical code. One is for the top sharing and one is for the bottom sharing. You could be altering one and checking the other. (I’ve done that a couple of times myself :))
Hope this helps.
Well did you read the topic I posted above?
The user found a solution:
The solution is simple, you must edit td_block.php and remove the itemprop attributes and add open graph to your article page. You can do that manually by addning the meta to your header or just install a plugin that does that for you.
Our theme seems to be missing some of the metadada or schema information required by the rich pins, but we did not create our theme with rich pins in mind. We did not specify anywhere that rich pins work with our theme. We did not test these. You will have to add some manual implementation or plugin meta data as @vexx mentions here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pinterest-sharing-issue/
I do not know of any solution for this. you will have to read the docs for the rich pins and see what they actually require and either add the meta yourself or use a plugin that does that for you.
Thank you for your understanding
Hello,
Sorry but we have not tested the rich pins on our site. We only provide the pinterest sharing option but not rich pins and we cannot know what they grab and what they don’t it is an implementation that is not tested so i cannot provide any solution for it. Maybe your other theme had rich pins already implemented. Maybe you can use a plugin for rich pins that provides the proper implementation.
Here is a related topic with a possible solution:

Thank you!
I will have a talk with my colleagues and see what can be done about the social sharing buttons. I cannot promise anything though but I will bring it up for ideas on future updates.
Thank you!
@Bogdan-B – you really need to consider updating your post sharing buttons to reflect the rest of the updates on the theme. You’ve done heaps of variations of the social counter widget, but i think the post sharing options (both styling and ability to turn off/on different networks) needs heaps of improvement. Hope you can add this to the list and hopefully i will see this in one of the next few updates.
Hi,
Unfortunately our theme does not have any options to add or remove any of the social icons separately. It can however be done from the theme code. Please use this topic to do it:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/add-a-linkedin-button/
and maybe
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/so-i-added-a-stumbleupon-sharing-button/
You can use these topics as examples on how to add an extra network to the sharing options. If you want to remove interest, simply delete the pinterest part of the code: http://screencast.com/t/iXViESwPvix
Thank you!
Hello,
1) This depends on the social sharing you are referring to. You did not mention precisely where you want to add your fb account. Is it in the social counter or the theme social icons (top menu or footer)
For the social counter please use this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial-2/
For the social sharing icons, you need to add the full URL including the https:// like so: http://screencast.com/t/CW7vRwvVCv
2) the travel guide background image is added a bit differently. It is added on a row in visual composer. Please edit the homepage in visual composer and edit the row settings for the first empty row like so: http://screencast.com/t/vha9Iaffddh – http://screencast.com/t/z6SFFhCI1
Thank you!
I’ve tried erasing these lines from the php file you shown:
// facebook sharing fix for videos, we add the custom meta data
if (has_post_thumbnail($post->ID)) {
$td_image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), 'full' );
if (!empty($td_image[0])) {
echo '<meta property="og:image" content="' . $td_image[0] . '" />';
}
}
// show author meta tag on sigle pages
$td_post_author = get_the_author_meta('display_name', $post->post_author);
if ($td_post_author) {
echo '<meta name="author" content="'.$td_post_author.'">'."\n";
}
}
But when I did that, the site stopped working.
Hello,
We have not added pinterest in the social counter as it’s already on the social sharing buttons. I already added this request to our update list but I cannot promise anything.
Thank you!
Hi,
We cannot find any info on how to increase the number (or change providers) of the social media sharing buttons, we only found this info in your documentation.
We’d like to add i.e. LinkedIn to the sharing options:
How can we achieve this?
Thanks!
Hi
I inserted into the sharing toolbar the Linkedin button following your article
I’m wondering if the new version of the theme – just release on Theme Forest – also contain the sprite with the linkedin picture or not
if not could be usefull to add it to avoid missing some new graphics due to the use of the custom sprite into the child theme
thanks
Paolo
Hello,
Unfortunately our theme does not have a photo sharing option. You can only share posts from the theme settings. We did not implement any photo sharing. Sorry. You will have to use the standard method by copying the photo url
Thank you!
Hello paulbar,
Thank you for reaching us! So, please notice that the layout of the theme can be used in 2 ways -> in full width and in boxed mode. Please keep in mind that if you are using a background image or color from your panel, the layout of the theme will be automatically switched to the boxed mode and that’s why the header and footer section is not in full width. If you want to get rid of it this behaviour you should check your settings and remove your background, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/ABlZZXMc or from there -> http://screencast.com/t/Tuz0tMqf
For your second request, if you want to get rid of it the Twitter sharing buttons, please notice that you should edit the td_module_single.php core file and remove some codes from there, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/kA7jXVA7o
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello stu1210,
If you want to add the FB comments below the social sharing button, please notice that you should edit the td_module_single.php core file and add there the shortcode generated by the FB, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/vZPs4y0xKO or you can add to the loop-single corresponding to post template used by you. For example, if you are using the post template 1 you should edit the loop-single-1.php, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/CG10jYUrZ Please notice that we only guide you to the right direction and then you should try to implement yourself this because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!
If you want to display more levels in theme and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you in this case!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi guys,
I will add this image to understand better what I try to archive. I thing that it would be good even for all users in some future update of theme because the “share tools” for some markets niches is “invisible” or is “missed”, this is why I want to tack on with a little… let’s call it “call to action text”.
So, for the share bottom box I want to add a kind of words like “Share if it was helpful”
And for the author box, I think that will have enough room to add a simple string like: “Follow us”
Here is the pic:
If you do not have time to give me a clue I perfectly understand and it will not bother me (I know that is custom work).
Thanks regardless of the answer.
