LG Social Bookmarking "sites" parameter not working
Development and Programming
I’m embedding this into each of my articles.
{lg_social_bookmarks title="{title}" permalink="{comment_url_title_auto_path}" sites="Digg|del.icio.us"}
SHARE
{social_sites}
<a href="http://{social_site_url}" title="{social_site_name} this article">_ {site_url}themes/cp_global_images/lg_social_bookmarks/favicons/{social_site_img_url}_ </a>
{/social_sites}
{/lg_social_bookmarks}It works with the exception of the sites= parameter. I’m sure I’m doing something obvious wrong. Any ideas?? Thanks!
(PS: Thanks Leevi for such a great, free extension!)
Hey BrittanyA,
I have uploaded the beta of LG Social Bookmarks 2.0.3 to Github. You can download the latest here: http://github.com/newism/lg.social_bookmarks.ee_addon/tree/master.
The sites param is fixed as well as a couple of other bugs.
Hey Leevi! I am having a similar issue with your LG Social Bookmarks extension but instead of the “sites” parameter it is the “title” parameter. I am assuming the ability to add the optional title parameter to the {lg_social_bookmarks} tag is so that you can customize the title of the article that is passed to the social networking website correct? If so this is what I set and I keep getting the default {title} content for the entry:
{lg_social_bookmarks title="Zaytuna College {title} Campaign" permalink="{path=donate/campaign}{url_title}"}
{social_sites}
<a href="http://{social_site_url}" title="Share on {social_site_name}">_ /themes/cp_global_images/lg_social_bookmarks/favicons/{social_site_img_url}_ </a>
{/social_sites}
{/lg_social_bookmarks}So for the title instead of “Zaytuna College Count Me In! Campaign” I am getting just “Count Me In!”. Any thoughts? Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug? Thanks for the great extension!
Yikes! I’m afraid I have yet another problem. The permalink parameter was functioning perfectly until a few moments ago. I’m using permalink=”{comment_url_title_auto_path}” and now I’m receiving this message:
Error
There is no “permalink” parameter in the {lg_social_bookmarks} tag. Please check the documentation for more information.
Any ideas? Thank you!
re: brittanyA
The post #2 above has a nice solution to the permalink issue. He’s got two {}{} next to each other. Might work for you!
