Plugin Wordpress Drag to Share eXtended


English version below


Version Française


WP Drag to Share eXtended est comme son nom l’indique un plugin qui permet à vos lecteurs de partager une page de votre blog (via les images de vos articles) sur les réseaux sociaux comme Twitter & Facebook mais aussi sur votre outil de bookmark préféré : Delicious.

Le Drag to Share a fait son apparition sur les blogs TechCrunch et Mashable (entre autre) qui testent la toolbar Meebo qui est malheureusement toujours en béta. Frustré de ne pas pouvoir l’utiliser, nous avons décidé d’en faire un plugin suite à l’excellent tutoriel proposé par Nettuts. Ce plugin s’adresse également aux blogueurs Wordpress qui ne veulent pas s’encombrer d’une toolbar.

English version


WP Drag to Share eXtended is a wordpress plugin that allow to your readers to share one of your blog’s pages (through your article’s images) on the social networks sites such as Twitter and Facebook but also on Delicious.

The ‘drag to share’ feature appeared on TechCrunch’s blog and Mashable (amongst others), who are currently testing the Meebo toolbar (in beta version).
Frustrated to be unable to use it too, we decided to make our own wordpress plugin. We relied on the brilliant Nettuts tutorial.

This plugin is also meant to serve wordpress bloggers who don’t give a damn about toolbars.

Hey, does this automatically add the drag to share functionality to all pictures on the site. I can’t seem to get it to work on my site.

10.29.09

Yes, you just have to activate the plugin ;-)

10.29.09

Hey,

Ok is to be working now. Not sure why it wasn’t before. Anywho, very cool plugin. Was wondering if there was a way to change the traget url that is used for the dragged picture.

You see on my blog I show everything in the main index page (full posts and retractable comments) this means that most readers don’t actually click into the posts own page. This creates a problem when using the drag to share as whenever you drag a picture the target url is always the root whataboutki.com instead of the actual post that the person is trying to share.

Any help would be awesome. And keep up the good work.

10.29.09

Hey Ki,

Thank you for your (relevant) feedback !
Actually, the plugin only share the url displayed in your browser for the current page.

BTW, we’ll add the feature you’re talking on the next version (probably in few weeks from now on).

Stay tuned ! ^__^

10.29.09

J’avais repéré cette fonctionnalité sur Mashable.
Merci d’avoir permis l’install directe via plugin.
C’est en place chez moi.

10.29.09

Hi, i’ve tried your plugins, but can you add url shortener service to your plugin? Because it’s too long if using the original url.

Thanks. Cheers!

10.29.09

Hey SocialBlogr!

This feature is available on the latest release of the plugin (1.07).
You just have to upgrade the plugin from your Wordpress Admin Panel.

10.29.09

Ok, I will upgrade your plugin.. Nice work. ;P

10.29.09

Hey there. thanks for sharing this plugin.
Im from germany and got issues with the new and very much welcomed url shortening for twitter. every german umlaut is killing the url-
for example: if a post is called « ich mag kinder mögen » all i got in twitter is « ich mag kinder m ». Any way to make this properly work?

10.29.09

Thanks for your amazing plugin. Really plays nicely with my blog, the only problem i have is that its not working with safari. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks,

Andi

10.29.09

Hey Thomas & Andi, Welcome here.

We’re going to check those issues within this week.
An update will be available soon.

Thanks for helping us.

10.29.09

@Thomas :
Can you show me an example, I tried to reproduce your issue but everything go fine for me, the link with a umlaut in it is working well.

Maybe it come from your permalink structure ? Please send me your blog URL.

Thanks.

10.29.09

Hi,

It doesnot seem to work for me at microreviews.org. Can you tell me a possible reason.

10.29.09

@Andi : The issue is fixed for Safari.

@Arkid Mitra : Another plugin is causing javascript errors, it seems to be the Digg button at the top of your posts, see your html source (arround line 130 for this post : http://microreviews.org/micros.....ocuments/)

This part is causing problem :
digg_bodytext = ‘Google is trying to close in on Microsoft\’s bread and butter (Google\’s Chrome OS has been the talking point for quite some time now). Microsoft is not be left behind with Bing making it\’s mark in the search space at-least in some niche areas.

Related posts: …’;

Coz in javascript, you can’t declare string variables on several lines, the very problem here is the empty line between « areas. » and « Related posts:… »

2 options for you :
- Disabling the digg plugin.
- Try to fix the line returning between those 2 words.

Should work fine.

I hope my answer is clear enough… good luck ;)

10.29.09

@Necrokeeper: Great support, didnt expect an solution this fast. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work you are doing with your plugin!

10.29.09

Sorry to bother you again, but seems like its not working with my blog. (pardon-my-french.net). Works well in Firefox, but not in Safari. I had all my plugins deactivated but still no luck. The test blog you adress to works well with safari, though.

10.29.09

I get the following two errors after activating it:

- Expected identifier in http://*****/wp-content/plugins/wp-dragtoshare-extended/js/wp-dragtoshare-extended.js?ver=1.0

- ‘dtsv’ is undefined

10.29.09

Hey Andi !

I fixed the Safari (Mac) issue. On the windows version of Safari everything was fine… quite weird.

Anyway, the plugin should be OK on Safari, Chrome, Firefox and IE now.

The new version (1.1) is available on wordpress.org

Have fun ;)

10.29.09

Hey,

thanks a bunch, working like a charm now. Also checked it with Opera browser and there it works flawless, too.

10.29.09

Bonsoir ,

L’installation s’est bien passé , mais au moment de vérif le rendu …

Cata : wp-content/plugins/wp-dragtoshare-extended/lib/dtse.functions.php on line 73

Et la je ne sais pas quoi faire pour qu’il puisse fonctionner sur le blog

Donc je vais le désactiver pour l’instant pour le bon fonctionnement du blog , mais ce serai interessant qu’il fonctionne

Merci , si vous pouvez m’amener un peu d’aide !!

Eric

10.29.09

@Maison ou bureau :

Bonjour, le problème viens de votre version de PHP (PHP4).
A la ligne 73 du fichier, il y a une fonction (str_ireplace) qui ne fonctionne qu’en PHP5.

Pour rendre le plugin compatible PHP4 il suffit de remplacer « str_ireplace » par « str_replace » (un i en moins).

Une mise à jour sera bientôt disponible sur Wordpress.org, mais vous pouvez apporter cette correction vous même dans le fichier wp-content/plugins/wp-dragtoshare-extended/lib/dtse.functions.php

Merci de nous avoir remonté ce genre de problème, cela améliore la qualité et la compatibilité du plugin.

10.29.09

@Necrokeeper

Avec plaisir , ça nous aide aussi à nous , donc c’est toujours un plaisir de partager mon experience

Merci à vous !

Eric

10.29.09

@Necrokeeper

Je viens de faire la modification et ça marche super bien

Merci de votre aide et du plugin excellentissime !

10.29.09

@Necrokeeper

Re,

Bon en fait j’ai un nouveau souci , tout fonctionne sauf

Quand je vais dans un post , en fin de post il y a écrit ça !

wp-content/plugins/wp-dragtoshare-extended/lib/dtse.functions.php on line 88

Merci de votre aide !

10.29.09

En fait il fallait faire comme pour la ligne 73

Pour rendre le plugin compatible PHP4 il suffit de remplacer « str_ireplace » par « str_replace » (un i en moins).

Et ça marche nickel

10.29.09

Hi,

Your plugin isnt working on my site at all :( really like it and would be perfect for me. ANy help is much appreciated.

J

10.29.09

@Jay

Hi there, I just looked at your site, another plugin seems to make trouble on your site : flightbox.

Try disabling it temporary to see if our plugin works fine without flightbox.

Other problems I noticed :

At the bottom of your home page source code this statement appears twice :

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(« img.flickr.square,img.flickr.thumbnail,img.flickr.small »).flightbox();
});

The problem may come from this too.

10.29.09

Hi,

I deactivated those plugins and deleted those jquerys at the bottom but still not working :( lol its so frustrating…!

J

10.29.09

The plugin is working fire when sharing via Facebook or Delicious but with Twitter is does not take the correct permalink.

Any help would be appreciated.

10.29.09

Can you make the fade in effect a bit faster..it’s too slow in my opinion D: Visitors would end up not getting interested in sharing at all D: Very cool plug-in btw :D

10.29.09

I’m having the same issue as Ravin – The twitter link seems to not take correctly.

10.29.09

Hi !

@Ravin
For a weird reason, the plugin do not add a proper class to your posts’ images… Do pictures displayed belongs to your post body ? or do you fill up a custom field while posting a new article ?

@Tim : The problem come from the specials HTML characters in your post title, the plugin properly works here : http://www.fuzzysack.com/?p=25
I’ll try to fix this soon !

@Sakimichi, I’ll take a look at this for the next release, to find the right speed.

Thx all !

10.29.09

Hi,

Just wondering if you can help with my blog as i still cannot get it to work.

Thanks,

Jay

10.29.09

Hi ..I installed the Drag Plugin and when i drag on an image and try to send it to twitter ..twiiter says the page doesnt exist?

http://www.bzoo.org/bzoo-radio.....orts-club/

what could be wrong?

10.29.09

Hi Jay,
You’re using lot of javascript framework on your blog (prototype+scriptaculous+jquery)… I guess this is too much for any browser.

I’ll try to add some compatibilty fixes… nevertheless I can’t assure you it will fixe your problem.

10.29.09

Hey all :

I just updated the plugin from your feedbacks (version 1.12 so far).

Sakimichi : Speed is now at 1200ms for the tooltips fade-in.

Tim : HTML entities shouldn’t bother you any more.

Jay : I added the compatibility fixes to the javascript code, please tell me if everything’s fine now.

Have fun ;)

10.29.09

Hi mate,

Thanks for your replies bro.

Its not worked im afraid :( Such a shame. May be a bit of an odd request but what java would you suggest i remove to try? Some i prob dont even use.

Jay

10.29.09

Just updated the plugin but I am afraid it still gives me the same error.

I would suggest visit http://touchreviews.net/gourma.....ject-game/ and try sharing via ‘Twitter’

The URL it takes is very weird.

10.29.09

Now I have an exciting error on my page from the the drag to share. LOL. Should I not have updated it yet?

10.29.09

please take a look at my site…the errors are on my homepage. <3

10.29.09

is it a PHP5 issue? What do I do to correct this?

10.29.09

Hey Tim,

Sorry for this, but this is not a bug in my plugin but a bug in PHP 4 itself.

What you can try :

1/ See how to enable PHP5 on your hosting (you seem to be on PHP4)

2/ Try to disable errors displaying by adding this to you wp-config.php :
ini_set(‘display_errors’, 1);

3/ Comment these line in my plugin in file lib/dtse.functions.php at line 119
just comment the line by adding 2 slashes :
//$title = html_entity_decode($title, ENT_QUOTES, get_bloginfo(‘charset’));

Apply one of these… not all 3 (even if #1 & #2 can be combined) !

best is #1
#2 is hiding the « shit »
#3 is disabling the html entities cleaning that your host cannot handle.

Anyway that’s only a warning message so it does not crash your blog.

Hope it’ll help.

10.29.09

Whoops for #2 the right line is :
ini_set(’display_errors’, 0);

10.29.09

@Ravin :
Try to enable the share permalink features in plugin admin panel, it should fix this… quite weird indeed.

10.29.09

Hi,

Enabled ’share permalink’ feature but, still the same issue.

Thanks for the support.

10.29.09

Okay, thanks.
I just created an .htaccess file

added « AddType x-mapp-php5 .php »

seems to be working fine now.

Sorry to bother you..I should of made sure I was using PHP5 first. HA!

10.29.09

Plugin seems to be working well for me, but I have a problem and a request:

1. The plugin is breaking my css commands to float left and right, making for very messy blog posts! Any ideas for a solution?

2. I’d love to be able to use this on my post thumbnails, which are outside of the_content. Is this possible? Some php to chuck in the theme?

Site I’m using the plugin on is http://indietravelpodcast.com. I’ll leave the plugin working overnight (for me) to see if anyone can diagnose issue (1). Thanks in advance.

10.29.09

Bonjour et merci pour partager ce plug-in.

however, i am having some trouble running it. once activated, i get the following at the begining of all my posts.

I love your Wordpress drag to share plugin. Is there an option to open the sharing window in a new window instead of in the same window after you drag to a social network? Thanks!

« Download the plugin WP Drag to Share Extended.Extract the zip file and just drop the contents in the wp-content/plugins/ directory of your WordPress installation and then activate the Plugin from Plugins page. »

Well, this SOUNDS very simple – but exactly where IS the plugins directory of my WP installation? I’ve searched and searched, but I can’t find any mention of such a thing in my WP dashboard or anywhere else. Nor can I find any mention of a plugin page. Where are these pages??

10.29.09

Hey Martin, you just have to drop the folder in wp-content/plugins on your server throught FTP then activate the plugin in wordpress admin (extensions).

Please refer to Wordpress official documentation if you are not sure of what you’re doing.

10.29.09

nice plugin, i will try this one, thank a loot…

10.29.09

Is there a css class we can use to turn off the dragtoshare function on individual elements?

10.29.09

Bonjour,

Je reviens vers vous , un nouveau problème apparait depuis la mise à jour , pour j’ai l’impression que le fichier n’a pas bougé !

Alors voila , le souci

 » Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /mnt/159/sdb/4/f/maisonoubureau/wp-content/plugins/wp-dragtoshare-extended/lib/dtse.functions.php on line 127  »

Je vous remercie d’avance de votre réponse et vous souhaite une tres bonne année 2010

Happy new year !

10.29.09

Cool plugin. I want to have 1 more option: the target of the share link is « _blank », not « _top », how can I modify the code to do this?

10.29.09

Nice Plugin. :)

10.29.09

Nice work. Will add that in my blog.

Thanks

10.29.09

Great plugin! A few things however I would like to see changed in upcoming releases.
1 – The text « Drag To Share » is behind all of my text and pics….maybe because my center column has relative and absolute positioning…however their z-index is below 1000 and I beleive your plugin puts everything at like 99999.

2 – I would like to see the social sites open in a new window or tab…. after I share a story I have to BACK up to return to the post. Defeats the purpose of making it easy to share with friends.

Thanks again for a kick ass plugin!
Chris

Extremely nice read, several great points were made.

10.29.09

Оболденно ты придумал, главное что все элементарно.

10.29.09

тематика блога понравилась, буду пользоваться и дальше.

10.29.09

Why this plugin does not work on thumbnails posts? like the CSS GALLERY THEME?

10.29.09

This plugin didnt work properly for me. Deactivated it for the mean time
Got this error
«  »
dtsv.dtse_post_880_permalink = ‘IMAGE URL(shows actual data)’;
dtsv.dtse_post_880_title = ‘IMAGE TITLE(shows actual data)’;
«  »
if this makes sense to you and is of any help to you.
Great plugin, works great on the single post page, but not on the home page. we have opted for option to not to show any image on the home page. and there it shows this error.
Rest on the post pages, it works flawlessly.

I hope this might be of some help to you and you get it debugged if there are any bugs.

Thank You

10.29.09

Intéressant , je vais essayer ca tout de suite merci

10.29.09

Wow! some days ago I used Meebo bar, that’s great, but too heavy to loas the bottom bar. Maybe I should try your plugins buddy. Thanks, nice work!

10.29.09

When are you going to make the drop target=’_blank’?

I have seen a couple of people also ask for it.

10.29.09

10.29.09

Merci, ce plugin va m’être très utile.

10.29.09

Hi

I love this plugin – I think its one of the coolest ways to share. But I too have an error

I get the following:

dtsv.dtse_post_880_permalink = ‘IMAGE URL(shows actual data)’; dtsv.dtse_post_880_title = ‘IMAGE TITLE(shows actual data)’;

Only on the home page, post pages work beautifully.

Is there a way that I can turn the plugin off for the home page put keep it functional for all post pages?

Please help I really want to make this plugin work!

I am very much impressed and love those plugin you have posted.

Thanks for such a great work and i have also bookmarked your site for future reference.

10.29.09

Hello;

Super plugin, works great. How can I make the Icon URLs open in a new window? Right now I drag the image to an Icon and after the post has been added to that social site I have to reopen my blog in a different tab. Is there a way when dragging the image that it opens the plugin in its own window?

Thanks

Thanks. Very good plugin. You guys rock!

10.29.09

Nice photos and funny pics.
