hello,
i couldn’t find any further description on how to use the social network settings regarding mail.
what my client wants is the option to (click on a button under the very post and) open the visitors emailclient
and paste the link/ content of that very pst inside of it – ready to be sent out to anybody (whom she or he knows)
something like this:
&
body=<?php the_title(); ?> – <?php the_permalink(); ?>”>E-Mail This Page

how could I integrate this into the bottom-sharing-menu underneath each post?

thanks a lot!

oops, pasting the function took out most of the link-part, another try:

&
body=<?php the_title(); ?> – <?php the_permalink(); ?>”>E-Mail This Page

ok, in words: a link that has
mailto:?subject=<?php the_title(); ?>&
body=<?php the_title(); ?> – <?php the_permalink(); ?>”>E-Mail This Page

Hi,
Unfortunately the theme has no such option. You might want to try out a few plugins that have mailing options like mailchimp for instance.
Thank you.

Hello, thanks for your reply – once I chose a solution, how could I line up my extra button within the other social sharing buttons below the ppost (inside of the 1px bordered sharing box)?
Thanks!

Hi,
I’m not sure you can get the button in there properly. You could try to tie in to the code for the social sharing bottom here: http://screencast.com/t/K8Njj91fYv
This will require coding knowledge though.
Thank you!

Hello, I would like to try with this code but the link is not working (http://screencast.com/t/K8Njj91fYv)
Please, could you update to see the code and try to do the mailto:… with the url of the page on it?

Thanks so much
