AddThis

Any public service is eligible to be placed in our directory for all to use. Since approval can take up to a month, and some services are not for public consumption (e.g., on a private intranet, or invitation-only), you may also add any service to your own menu at run-time.

Optional Arguments

services_custom Optional

Specify your own AddThis bookmarking service with a JSON object:

{
   name: "My Service",
   url: "http://share.example.com?url={{url}}&title={{title}}",
   icon: "http://example.com/icon.jpg"
}

All three fields must be present for each custom service. Any custom service is available to all compact menus on a page. In an AddThis toolbox, the custom service's hostname is its unique identifier. In the example above, you could create a chiclet for "My Service" with the class "addthis_button_share.example.com".
