Extension:AddThis

What can this extension do?
Adds an AddThis widget as a portlet to the sidebar and displays expanded widget as toolbar in the upper right corner of articles - just below the article's title and the site's tagline. Expanded widget toolbar can also be inserted using the  tag.

Usage
By default, the sidebar is set to appear on all pages.

By default, the toolbar will appear in the header of all articles in a content namespace.

Using the  tag, you can:
 * Display the toolbar on pages in non-content namespaces
 * Display the toolbar when it has been disabled in LocalSetting.php
 * Display the toolbar on places other than the page header

Requirements
The following requirements must be satisfied for the AddThis extension to work.
 * MediaWiki 1.17 or newer (due to usage of ResourceLoader)

Install the extension
Add the following to LocalSettings.php:

Additional configuration parameters are below.

For example, you can disable the article header toolbar by adding this to LocalSettings.php:

While it is not appear to be required, it is highly recommended that you register an AddThis account and enter your user/profile id number to LocalSettings.php:
