Twitter Sharing – disable the "via @Username"

Hi TagDiv,

I need to disable the “via” part of the twitter sharing feature. By default if the Twitter username setting if empty it add the site name.

Is there a way by a code override or a hook to withdraw this “via” part ?

Thanks.

Hello @Anamaria,

Thanks for trying to help.

Your answer is outdated.

There is now a td_social_sharing class located at wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_social_sharing.php

I was able to find a (poor) way with a mu-plugin to override the whole class… just to remove the “via” part.


add_action('tdc_init', function() {
td_api_autoload::delete('td_social_sharing');
td_api_autoload::add('td_social_sharing', __DIR__ . '/includes/td_social_sharing.php');
}, 11);


But like I said, it’s a poor way, forcing me to be vigilant at each theme updates to reproduce td_social_sharing updates.

It is a pity that your theme is not more developer friendly.
