Valid XHTML Facebook/Twitter buttons Just for vBSEO Users

Hello,

Recently I was searching for a Valid XHTML Facebook and Twitter buttons, I have found 2 methods :

1.Mert.C. Method : Facebook "like" Button for Vbulletin

2.Using Addthis.com Script + vbseo Virtual HTML Display feature :

HTML Code:

<!-- FB Like-Tweet Button - Google+  START -->
<a class="addthis_button_google_plusone" ></a>
<!--VBSEO_VIRTUAL_HTML--><a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" style="float:$stylevar[right];" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a><!--/VBSEO_VIRTUAL_HTML-->
<a class="addthis_button_tweet" style="float:$stylevar[right];"></a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=xa-4d03833d4f0badb3"></script>
<!--  FB Like-Tweet Button - Google+  END -->

You can also use style options like style="float:$stylevar[right];" to make it right/center/left aligned.


Note: The source code of these buttons is made by Addthis.com

Regards.

First version does not work, are the same errors(for vbulletin 4.1.2).

Hi,

For the First Method please try to ask your question in the related topic cuz Mert is the developer of that plugin.

for the second one , you can put this code where ever you want, for example navbar/forumdisplay/showthread etc.

Best Regards.

I want to use this, but the problem I have is that it links to the thread rather than the individual post. I already have the facebook and twitter buttons at the top of each thread for that, but ideally I want people to be able to link to individual posts. Is this possible, and if so what changes needs to be made to the code?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Unfortunately there is no way to do this with the codes provided in the first post, I think you should use some custom codes.

Please try to ask it at the Off Topic forum.

Thanks for the quick response, I will do that now.

My Pleasure

Edit : Google Plus has been added to the codes.

I have a question. I am using VBSEO and using its features for multiple pages for a thread so the first page of a thread has no file extension. The second page ends with index2.html and so on through all the page. I have added facebook, twitter, google+, stumbleupon and reddit links to the top of showthread so it shows on every thread page for my public forums.

Here is the issue. All of the social media like buttons see every page of a thread as if it were a new page to like. Is there anyway to automatically tell those links to aggregate any like from any page of a thread so that one, if anyone likes or submits any page of a thread, it submits to the social media site as the main thread page. Essentially, what I am asking is whether there is a way to strip the last bit from pages so all the pages of a thread look the same to the social media links.

Well to be honest I need such thing too much but based on their API its impossible cause there is just two ways to use the like buttons : 1.The current method 2.Like Button for manual URLs which will point to your Homepage and should be set by you at Facebook App Center.

Yeah.. that is what I was afraid would be the case. :(
