Hello,

I thought - and still think - this could be achieved by javascript code, like I said:

Code:

var addthis_share = addthis_share || {}
addthis_share = {
	passthrough : {
		twitter: {
			via: "hervelam",
			text: "#japprecie @yannpierremeray"
		}
	}
}

At least I want to try.
I found you wrote this:

3. If you want different JS for every item, then you can create a textarea field
and set its filtering to none

here
Could you tell me more about it please?
How is this textarea included into the item? Does it have to be displayed or not? What's the syntax I have to key in this textarea field? (I mean, the above code embedded into <script> .... </script>, or something else?)
And what do you mean with "set its filtering to none"?

Thanks for your help.
Good night.

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Hello,

Of course I understand.
I'll search the external part by myself.

But please help me with the 'internal' part: How can I insert a FLEXIcontent textarea field so that the browser reads the source code inside, instead of a value only?

And what does "set its filtering to none" mean?

Good night.

Hello,

Just to let you know that I managed to achieve it.
If anybody's interested, let me tell you what I did.

I created a new textarea field (that I named "perso_twitter".
In this field I entered the following properties (these are the start and end of the common text that I want in Twitter sharing for all items).
Opening text for Field:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">var addthis_share = addthis_share || {}; addthis_share = { passthrough : { twitter: { via: "myTwitterAccount", text: "#myHashtag

Closing text for Field:

Code:

" } } }</script>

See screenshot. Note the Display label=No, so that the field label is not displayed on the screen.
I included this field in a position (at bottom).
And populated each of my items with the wanted value for this field, i.e. the specific item-related text that I want to appear in Twitter sharing (including hashtags or concerned Twitter accounts!)

Simple indeed. And it works!

Good night.

Hello

Ok thanks for feedback,
a note , entering SCRIPT tag into textarea will work only if
- you allow it via appropriate field configuration (the validation parameters)
