Hi..
I’m using the latest Newsmag Theme. I want to add
additional sharing buttons to the details page.
Is there a best practice to do this rather than
modifying the include files?
Cheers,
Guenter
Hi
You can look for a plugin with a similar functionality but I can’t make any recommendation in this regard as we didn’t tested any social share plugin.
Also you can modify the file corresponding with the post template used and add the code for the new share buttons where you want them to be displayed: http://screencast.com/t/EvhHBARv9 The loop/single filse can be edited via child theme if you want to keep the changes after theme update.
Please consider that this customizations requires advanced coding skills and tests. If you can’t do this by yourself my advice is to look for someone which can help you with this or hire a freelancer to do it for you as we can’t offer any type of custom work at the moment.
Thanks
I guess it would help if you would add support for add_filter and add_action throughout your includes so that one could simply add items to your sharefile-chain rather than exhanging the whole thing or modifying your td_module_single.php file.
Hi
We certainly plan to extend the theme flexibility in the future updates. I’ve added your suggestion on our list and when the time comes our developers will consider it. This may take some time because we have a long implementation list and we take them one by one.
Thanks for your suggestion, have a nice day.
