WhatsApp - Site Promotion - Sharing


sobrenome

Recommended Posts

Please, add WhatsApp as a Sharing option in site Promotion.

I have just taken a look at my website statistics right now and more than 50% of the visitors are accessing it by cell phones.

It's a must for great community promotion the option to share content by WhatsApp.

AddThis (http://www.addthis.com/blog/2014/08/13/new-services-added-including-whatsapp-sharing/#.VNqycMbZGC8) and AddToAny (https://www.addtoany.com/services/whatsapp_button) already offer WhatsApp sharing button.

There is a ready to use javascript that can be used by IPS 4: http://whatsapp-sharing.com

Actually looking more into this I have just implemented it quickly to my site via mobile. Needs some work but I added

 

<div class="right"><a href="whatsapp://send?text=JustATest"><img src="//phoneunlockserver.com/images/whatsapp.png"/></a></div>

 

To my mobile skin after 

				{parse template="defaultHeader" group="global" params=""}
			</if>

I think it's better than relying on external websites and javascript

​It works on IOS, but still needs the page Title and URL.

What about Android? Does it work with Google's OS?

I'm looking at creating my first hook it works on android in fact I don't have IOS like I said that was just a quick rough test to see if it worked.

I'm thinking about hook with a small floating button in the mobile skin to share the current page via whatsapp

​This is great ! I also want to add a WhatsApp-Button to the Desktopstyles. Why? On Wordpress, many people see that button and visit the site using their mobile just to share content via WhatsApp, so Desktopusers should also know they have the possibility to do so :smile:
