Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
Square Wheels Posted Friday at 07:47 PM Posted Friday at 07:47 PM How do I control where items are shared? I click this on the Share link on a post: and it brings up this window. I'd like Instagram to also be there. Thanks

For instance, I went to Sharing in the ACP and turned off Pinterest, and that no longer shows in the sharing link on the page. Then I click more sharing options, and there are items listed there. Can I add a sharing option? This video shows it to the point of the second pop-up, it would not capture that, but you can see it in the pic above. https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/35411961?key=30969a85ea4b6f7f914f62509fb7e76a

Square Wheels Posted Friday at 08:03 PM Author Posted Friday at 08:03 PM OK, thanks. Is there a way to add sharing items to the first smaller pop-up that is controlled by in the ACP?

These would need to be added by us or through a customization but theoretically, yes. I say theoretically, as the site you want to share to needs to support that as such. Like for Facebook, as an example, they have a sharing system that developers can use to open up a share window and pass a URL to so a user can share that URL on Facebook. You can suggest new share sites in our Feedback forum.

It's indeed possible to add new options with applications. For example, I have a free modification available that adds a QR Code option: https://invisionbyte.net/files/file/283-tb-qr-code-share-service/

Any chance you'd modify it for v5 so we can add our own? Maybe put a small fee on it? 🙂
Daniel F Posted Friday at 09:51 PM Posted Friday at 09:51 PM Custom Share Services can't be added to v5 yet (there's no official extension for it, but one may accomplish it via a quick and dirty workaround), but be assured it's on our roadmap 🙂 Square Wheels 1
