http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/topics/38604-customizing-addthis Customizing AddThis articles Hi guys, I've been trying to get the Welcome Bar to work for my 2 facebook pages, but I think I'm missing something; I cannot get it to work. I have 2 main pages on my website, which both have a seperate Facebook page. I'd like to show a welcome bar on both, an direct them to the right facebook page. Here is my code: addthis.bar.initialize([ { "match": { "url": "(http://www.grandprixweather.com\/formula\-1-weather\-news\-for\-android/)(.*)" }, "message": "Follow GP NEWS & WEATHER on Facebook:", "action": { "type": "button", "text": "Follow", "verb": "follow", "service": "facebook", "ID": "GPWeather", "url": "http://www.grandprixweather.com/formula-1-weather-news-for-android/" } }, { "match": { "url": "(http://www.grandprixweather.com\/motogp\-1-weather\-news\-for\-android/)(.*)" }, "message": "Follow MOTO NEWS & WEATHER on Facebook:", "action": { "type": "button", "text": "Follow", "verb": "follow", "service": "facebook", "ID": "MotoNewsWeather", "url": "http://www.grandprixweather.com/motogp-weather-news-for-android/" } } ]); I tried using just the URL, but the AddThis plugin adds some charaters to it to be able to track URL sharing, so then I read that you can use Regex in the URL comparison. So that's what I did, but still no go. These are the pages i'm working with: http://www.grandprixweather.com/formula-1-weather-news-for-android/#.UcGdoPkwc80 http://www.grandprixweather.com/motogp-weather-news-for-android/#.UcGdtPkwc80 many, many thanks in advance!

Tue, 18 Jun 2013 16:19:59 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1193812 After finding documentation on the new 'passthrough' method of customizing twitter shares (http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/articles/683399), I havent seen anything regarding how to use a title variable within in. The usage of {{title}} echos just that: {{title}}. I am attempting to basically reorder and add a hashtag to the final tweet, resulting in the following syntax: [TITLE] [HASHTAG] [BITLY URL] I've got Bitly working, but he presence of a 'text' parameter removes the default title from the tweets template. So then i opted to add the title within the 'text' parameter as a variable --- and here I am. How can I accomplish what I am trying to do here?

Mon, 17 Jun 2013 19:37:39 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1182198 I recently made some changes to my custom wordpress theme to support embedded html in the title - the main use case is where part of the title is a hyperlink to an external site.

Below is the addthis div that is rendered: Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email Share on print More Sharing Services 14 Is there a way that I might be able to get this to work ... or should I just leave my pipe dream of embedding html in post titles?

Wed, 05 Jun 2013 19:37:59 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1147346 You've got some great documentation on supplying a uniform description, title, url and image (in the case of open graph & facebook), but what about those of us who want to provide distinct values for each service (similar to how the deprecated twitter templates feature worked in the past)? I'd love to be able to provide the following: However, as you've guessed, the services will silently fallback to open graph values. There are many reasons why i think this handling would be useful, but the biggest of which is because facebook allows much longer descriptions (and no @/# values) than twitter. And tumblr has its own native properties that can't be addressed with just the three API parameters you offer. I'm guessing the short-answer to my questions is: OPEN GRAPH is a standard, and that's a good thing. But a bit of granularity would go a long way. Tue, 04 Jun 2013 21:47:46 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1146952 When you click the Facebook share button it brings up the 'Share this Link' popup with a preview of the title, url, and a description of the page. It looks like the description is normally pulled from the tag. If you don't have a value for the description tag, however, it seems to pick a random paragraph with no apparent rhyme or reason. How does the API choose what to put for the description and can I configure it more precisely? I want it to always pick the first paragraph after the page's heading(s).

Fri, 24 May 2013 17:27:58 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1100787 Hello, I am using the custom Twitter button on my website, but I wonder if there is a way of shortening the title characters (to around 100) rather than displaying the full text? When the button is on a news article, it shows the full title, so there is too many characters (example http://www.istructe.org/news-articles/2013/industry-news/3d-modelling-technology-offers-ground-breaking-sol) Thanks Darren Baker Thu, 23 May 2013 16:31:23 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1096958 To whom it may concern, I was trying to test a custom email variable but every time I send a test email, it does not appear the variable is being parsed.

I have a black bar with nav links at the very top in the exact place where the wordpress admin bar would be loaded. But - I can't find a way to push that down so it shows below the welcome bar. I was able to do this previously with the hello bar and this is a customization that would seal the deal for me switching over to you completely. Any advice would be most appreciated! http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/addthis-welcome/ Thu, 23 May 2013 14:41:50 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1095134 We have added the add this code to our site and been very pleased with its performance and the data we get from it. However, recently a change was made that causes an extremely disruptive pop up to display showing various add this options and advertising add this services. Is there a way to remove this to use the buttons as they were before or are we going to need to remove add this to stop the popup? Thu, 23 May 2013 16:32:27 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1094955 I have implemented share buttons for the bottom of blog posts. When Twitter and Facebook are clicked a little window opens up to Tweet or Post; However, when doing this for Google+ and Linkedin a new, full tab opens to share the post. It would be preferable to have the lightbox appear for Google+ shares as seen on many share buttons. As for Linked in I think the behavior would be similar to Facebook. Any suggestions? Thanks!

The first two are documented here: http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/articles/381237-third-party-buttons The Pinterest Share button is not documented on that page, and the settings used on the Pinit button don't seem to work for the regular Pinterest Share button. Here's what I've tried in the code: But neither works. It only works when I use the PinIt button, but in this instance I don't want a Pinit button! Thank you!

Most of my sites are in Italian and at least one need to show also the French language (depending on the selected language): how can I do that via html decoration? Tue, 14 May 2013 15:25:12 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1057800 Can you also determine what snippet you can post with LinkedIn? The share button doesn't show the standard snippet /description, but looks for the first h2 header. Tue, 14 May 2013 15:47:44 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1057178 In first place, I would like to thank you for this fantastic service. It saved me a lot of time! The problem that I'm facing is that the URL generated by addthis is being encoded, at least when it's published to twitter. I'm going to show it to you in a simple example: And this is the text published in twitter: This is a test http://www.testing-example.com/test/?%2F1%2F342394%2Fthis-is-a-test%2F#.UY6q_dm-ktI.twitter This is the result that I want to achieve: This is a test http://www.testing-example.com/test/?/1/342394/this-is-a-test/ As you can see, I'm facing two problems. The most important one is that the URL is being encoded when I want it to be published as it was declared, without encoding. And the second and less important problem is that there are text being added to the URL that I would like to remove. Any idea of how can this be done? Thank you really much for your help! Mon, 13 May 2013 14:41:01 +0000 http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/questions/1050034 I would like to customize the URL, description and title for specific services, but also use Preferred services. As far as I understand, customized url, description and title is applied to the button. What if I use preffered buttons? Also, how to add a custom image, that's not on the page. I know this is done with open graph tags for facebook, linkedin and others. What about the rest of the services?

Is this possible? Are there any solutions out there like this?
