Pinterest Share Link

Adds the Pinterest share service/link to IPS4.

Once enabled, a Pinterest icon should appear in your share links. There are several settings under System > Sharing > Pinterest to add Pinterest features such as sharing any image on the page from the share link and/or being able to hover over an image and share directly from there.

@Lab Rats Rule What settings are you using and what do you mean by not working? That it does not popup the Pinterest page, wrong URL linked to, or... ? I just tested all the settings on a site that is completely SSL and the sharing functions are working for me. 

If you could please provide an example URL here or in PM. Thanks. ^_^

I have all the settings turned on.  I even installed the chrome extension and it didn't help.  Also fails in my Ipad.  Does pinterest ever need allowed through a sites firewall?

Link you asked for,

I tested on a random image and then the button. it worked for me in Chrome on Windows 8.1. AFAIK Pinterest doesn't need firewall access but I've heard that ad blockers and other plugins can cause issues.

Does the most basic setting work? That one is a simple link and doesn't use any of the extra Pinterest options.

Well this has me perplexed.  I even disabled pop up blockers even though pinterest is whitelisted.  Nothing....  Earlier I even whitelisted it for 3rd party cookies.  Had to force the issue though.  Nothing...  You are saying you tried a random image from my site and it worked?

Disabled the advanced settings and still doesn't work.  Should the button still be in the upper left corner of every picture with this disabled?

Now I found that my Facebook pics aren't working for sharing either.  My rss FB feed has no pictures either,  .  When I look under theme resources, I see no picture option even under the default theme.  This may be a bigger IPS issue here.

Yes, I tried both the share button and a random image and the Pinterest popup appeared with an image from your site. Without advanced settings it is simply a link (like most of the other IPS share services). 

To change your FB share picture you to click  'Edit' on your theme(s), go to the 'Logos' tab, and upload a 'Sharer Logo.'

It is perplexing... especially since the more advanced settings have Pinterest do all the work.

This is what I see when I click the Pinterest button at the link you provided:
