Change social buttons

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello.
At the bottom of each article I have 4 social buttons (Twitter, Facebook, Goolge+ and Pinterest).
How can I change one of them or add another?

Also, can I move them at the bottom of my posts or I have to create a page (and not a post) to set the social buttons at the top?

Thank you!

Unless you’re looking to edit the theme files, it’s actually easier to use a plugin which gives you options for different buttons, and options for placement at top or bottom, or both. We use AddThis, for many sites. However one of the theme users made a plugin which you might be able to find from his post in this forum, maybe search for “social media plugin” or something.

Ok..now i’m looking to edit theme files..

I just want Stumbleupon over the Pinterest button. So I found all files that include “td-social-sharing” where the buttons are from, but now I don’t know what to do 😐

Now this it’s my last problem:

<a class=”td-social-sharing-buttons td-social-pinterest” href=”http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=&#8217; . get_permalink() . ‘&media=’ . (!empty($image[0]) ? $image[0] : ”) . ‘” onclick=”window.open(this.href, \’mywin\’,

I changed the name from Pinterest in StumbleUpon here (line 143):
wp-content\themes\Newspaper\includes\modules\module_modifier\td_module_blog.php

The “P” it’s on images/sprite/elements.png

And the link that i posted first it’s on (line 141):
wp-content\themes\Newspaper\includes\modules\module_modifier\td_module_blog.php

So my problem it’s founding what it’s that link -_- some help please? Thanks!

Hi,

You can move the social sharing buttons moving this line: http://screencast.com/t/DiWSw8v1 inside loop-single.php file. For the other post templates you need to edit and change the other templates files: http://screencast.com/t/SiJF33Ka4s
