I received many requests to add a mechanism to sociofluid wordpress plugin to display the buttons in custom places. For example a lot of people want to chose in the template where to display the buttons.
Starting with version 1.1 this mechanism is in place. This mechanism consist in2 functions which are available when the plugin is activated. Beside this, nothing is changed, the plugin needs to be configured from sociofluid admin panel.
- externalGetSociofluidButtonsInLoop() - this function must be invoked if the code must be displayed inside a loop(the sociofluid menu is displayed for each post item in the loop) or if it’s associated with a specific post(the sociofluid menu is displayed in a single post).
- externalGetSociofluidButtonsForCurrentUrl() - this function must be invoked if the code must be displayed somewhere outside of the main loop. For example in sidebars
All you have to do is to edit the template and add the following 2 lines in the place where you want to have the buttons displayed and to go in the sociofluid admin panel and to check this option:
- for each post in a loop or for single post pages:
<? if (function_exists('externalGetSociofluidButtonsForCurrentUrl'))
{echo externalGetSociofluidButtonsForCurrentUrl();} ?>
- for the cases when the sociofluid widget is not related to a post and relates to the url instead:
<? if (function_exists('externalGetSociofluidButtonsInLoop'))
{echo externalGetSociofluidButtonsInLoop();} ?>

11|Jan|2009 1We used the php code for it to be on all post pages. How do we get it to show in home page, category page and browse pages too? The admin widget does it, shouldn’t this code do it as well?

11|Jan|2009 2forget my last comment. I figured it out. Now I was wondering, do you guys plan on having a email link icon? and is there a way to have the rollover text no overlap icon but go under it?

12|Jan|2009 3Forget about the last 2 post. We have created a email this post icon and code using socifluid. You can see it here:

We are now working on a RSS Subscribe icon for this amazing plugin.

13|Feb|2009 4Great plugin. I think you have the Loop and Url functions reversed on this page.

17|Feb|2009 5Nice plugin. Some suggestions:
1. Can you allow custom css for images? I had to modify your PHP to get things to work like I wanted.
2. When you do the “padding-bottom” for images, you do a $largesize – $smallsize, which makes the “hover” text overlap the icons completely. For my page this was not looking good on Firefox.

17|Feb|2009 6My bad – I figured out how to handle the problems without modifying the PHP. I simply created styles in my stylesheet with names corresponding to the ones you are using.

02|Dec|2009 7Hello, I’ve installed your plugin in my wordpress blog, but even though I’m inserting the code:
INSIDE the posts loop, I don’t get the link to the post, but to the page… this is a behaviour I don’t want… I want to be able to share the POST, rather than the link to my homepage.
Can you help me, am I missing something to achieve this?

02|Dec|2009 8Never mind, your instructions are inverted… I figured it out.

18|Dec|2009 9I feel like a complete idiot, I have my plugin working and the social site “boxes” seem to look perfect yet they don’t seem to be configured right to actually take the readers to the social sites…what am I missing???
