Extension talk:Add to Any Share/Save/Bookmark Button/Archive 1

Doesn't seem to work?
I've installed the extension. It shows up in the Special:Version page. I put the tag on a page. Nothing happens. I removed the comments around the "to do" section in the php file. Still nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

The tag is a work in progress.

The goal is to have the tag load the external JavaScript call before the tag (so that content always loads first). If anyone knows how to make this happen, please do get in touch! http://www.addtoany.com/contact/

Looks Good - Doesn't appear to work!
Installed this... presentation looks really good. However, when I click on the facebook icon, I get " Error" followed by the calling URL truncated and with ellipses in the 'Post to profile' page. Any suggestions?

Extremely annoying!
Its a good tool but its incredibly frustrating to have on a site due to the fact its a big pop up window in a regular cursor path that will activate even on a quick brush-over of the cursor. Any modifications? A 1/2 second delay on popup would probably work fine. --86.28.134.69 22:17, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

A Fix to Stop the Automatic Pop-Up

I agree that the automated pop-up can be a bit annoying at times, but I found that if you just add this quick bit of code, you can make it so the window will not drop down until the user clicks on the Add-to-Any icon. Here we go with the mod:


 * Open the php file you put into your extensions directory:

'a2a_linkname="' .$link_title. '"; a2a_linkurl="' .$link_url. '"; '; return $markup;
 * About halfway down there is a section that has this code:


 * Right before the closing:


 * Simply add:


 * So when you are done it looks like:

'a2a_linkname="' .$link_title. '"; a2a_linkurl="' .$link_url. '";a2a_onclick=1; ';

return $markup;

See it in action

This fix works perfectly. Thanks! Syntaxbad 20:16, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. That worked perfectly. Popups suck. The WordPress plugin version of this has a config option to get rid of popups. This also needs a parameter to relocation it to another part of the page. For those who need it on the bottom, bookmark.php extension puts this on the bottom but it also ads a redundant bookmark graphic.

How do i get this to work?
Ok so I followed all the instructions and my site still works without an error message so it must be installed correctly,now how do i add a share button to a page?

Can the Bar location be moved?
I have installed the extension (and the mouseover fix above) and it appears to work perfectly. However I'd love a way to control where on a page the bar shows up by default. I find it a little distracting to have right underneath the article title and was hoping it could be moved to be over on the right by default. Syntaxbad 20:18, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

I second moving the bar
In addition to being able to move the bar, I was wondering if instead of blocking the pop-up, can it just be delayed so that a quick pass of the mouse won't activate it, but a hover would?

Oh, and how can we customize the buttons that show? I would like Facebook and Twitter to show for sure. I found this code on the actual site, but don't know how to incorporate it into this extension.

a2a_config.prioritize = ["google_gmail", "facebook", "twitter"];
