Social Networking Plugin Help! What Facebook Share Widget Is This?

Discussion in 'Social Networks' started by jvfconsulting, Aug 5, 2011.

    Since Facebook canned the API for the "share" button widget thing on my blog, I've been on the hunt for a new one. Turns out the Facebook website only allows you to create a "Like" button which is lame! Since I specifically need a "Share" button that allows users to edit the post before it publishes it to their wall, I've been on the hunt for a new one. I just found one I really like, but I can't tell where its from, and how to get it? Can someone help me? The share widget that I'm talking about is located in the top left of the news story and has the title "Share This Story". Thanks in advance for your help!

    What platform are your running your site on?
    if it is a CMS platform then there are plugins that can be used to get the share button you describe.

    The CMS I use is custom built, there are no plugins, I add the scripts myself.

    If you are using a Content Management System, then you can easily add more Social media buttons by the help of a simple plugin.
