Extensión (Plug-in) ShareThis para b2evolution 2.4.x
Sharethis es un sencillo pero muy útil servicio que nos permite agregar un botoncito para darle a nuestros lectores la oportunidad de enviar el contenido en nuestras páginas web a distintas redes sociales y servicios de marcadores en línea, tales como Facebook, Digg, Menéame.net (en español), StumbleUpon y un largo etcétera.
La gente de Sharethis ofrece extensiones para varias plataformas bitacoreras populares, tales como Blogger, Wordpress y Typepad, pero como de costumbre, b2evolution no es tomada en cuenta, quizás por los pocos que la usamos.
Para no quedarme con los brazos cruzados, decidí hace unas semanas escribir una pequeña extensión o plug-in para b2evolution que agregara la funcionalidad de Sharethis a mis bitácoras y aquí lo pongo a disposición de mis colegas "b2-bitacoreros":
Sharethis Plugin for b2evolution 2.4.x
Es tan fácil como descargar el archivo ZIP, desempacarlo dentro del directorio plugins/ de tu bitácora e instalarlo desde el panel de control.
Parámetros de configuración
Para que la extensión funcione correctamente hay que configurar un par de parámetros desde el panel de control o backoffice. Bueno, en realidad hace falta configurar un sólo parámetro que es la identificación de editor (publisher ID) proporcionada por Sharethis cuando uno se registra. Este parámetro es una cadena de 36 caracteres del tipo: 03f2a089-44c7-4110-821a-5121f0ed76a9 y uno la obtiene en la página de configuración de Sharethis (el texto que viene después de publisher= en el código javascript.
El segundo parámetro es la lista de servicios que uno desea que aparezcan en el recuadro cuando el usuario presiona "ShareThis" y uno la obtiene desde el mismo lugar. Para beneficio propio y de los bitacoreros hispanoparlantes he incluido a menéame.net en la lista por omisión, pero si no te gusta, no "tienes que comértelo" y lo puedes cambiar a discreción desde el panel de control.
Sharethis plugin for b2evolution
I'm happy to present the Sharethis plugin for b2evolution 2.4.x.
What is sharethis? A nice button to allow your readers to post your content to multiple social bookmarking sites, like facebook, digg, meneame, etc. Furthermore you'll have upon registration on sharethis, nice statistics about click-through rates and other goodies.
This plugin will add a Sharethis button to your posts. Just that.
Installation and Setup
Installation and setup is fairly easy.
- Donwload the ZIP file which contains the Plugin: Sharethis Plugin for b2evolution 2.4.x
- Extract the contents of the ZIP file on your server's
plugins/directory - Go to your Backoffice and activate the plugin
- There are two parameters to setup after activation, the first one is your publisher ID, which you get upon registration at ShareThis. The second one is the comma-separated list of services you want to appear when the user clicks the button. If this list is empty, the default 20 services will be used.
- After this, you will notice a new checkbox when you're in the editor
ShareThis, which is activated by default. This will put the ShareThis button in your new posts. If you don't want this behavior, go to the plugin settings and select "opt-in", or "opt-out" for "Apply Rendering" option.

i think that we can share some code ;)
http://devlog.waltercruz.com/media/blogs/b2evolution/share_this_plugin_beta.zip
In my plugin, I have made it a stealth renderer.. I don't know what is the better, opt-in or stealth... I have copied the ak_uuid from the original plugin (GPL code), so the user can use the share this without have to register itself on sharethis site. Let's talk about it!
I don't know what's a "stealth" renderer, probably that's why I set the way I did. In any case, I'll give a look at your code when I have a little bit of time.
A stealth renderer is a renderer that is applied to all items, and the user can´t change this. In my plugin settings, I had almost the same settings as in the wordpress plugin. I could select to apply share this on all post or all pages, ant it should be applied to all posts and pages, cause it´s a stealth plugin :)
(Can I speak on portuguese? It will take the my life easier :) )
Visit my site and look for CHEAP iCafe Investment.... I can't put my link here, your anti-spam is too strict :P hehe.
good job!!
How can I make it so that it shows up in post type "Page" as well?
Visit my blog and click on "PH-Online Games List" as a sample. ^_^
Thanks!!
<div class="sharethis"> so in principle you could apply CSS styles to it, but I see your point with the post metadata not directly below the post content.On the forums, someone pointed this out also, I had not thought about it. In a future release, there will be a SkinTag and everything, so you can put it wherever you like without problems.
As to the Pages, you are right. You can comment out about line 114 where it says:
if ( $item_type != 1 ) /* don't do it for links */ return $content ; and I think it will be able to put the button on every kind of post.
There are two parameters to setup after activation, the first one is your publisher ID, which you get upon registration at ShareThis. The second one is the comma-separated list of services you want to appear when the user clicks the button. If this list is empty, the default 20 services will be used.
