Social Media Icons

Post by rgossard » Thu Jan 19, 2012 6:58 am

I am trying to add Social Media Icons (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Email, Printer) using AddThis HTML code to get the word out on our team's website. However when testing it, the link which is embedded in Facebook and Twitter (for example) takes the new viewer to my team's website but the website is minus the tabs on the left. The best I can figure out is the link is faulty on the webpage because when I right click on the page under properties I get this "http://www.iscorebaseball.com/home.php? ... nviewbears."

Change the link to http://www.iscorebaseball.com/mountainviewbears" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and see if that works.

Team Mom has it right... you can use any of these URLs:

http://www.iscorebaseball.com/mountainviewbears" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://iscorebaseball.com/mountainviewbears" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://iscoresoftball.com/mountainviewbears" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


The all will reference your site.

Where do you change the link in the "AddThis" set up?

Not sure what "AddThis" is, but the URLs you would want to use to reference your site from any external system are the ones mentioned above.

The problem is the set up is automatic - I place the HTML code in my homepage via edit homepage through iscore that I got by way of the "add this" app to get the HTML code. The app is automatically placing the wrong webpage in the setup. I can't figure out a way to override it so people who click on the button get the right web page to go to. I'll keep plugging, but surely someone has added these buttons to share their websites via the social network.

Figured it out. Apparently iScore does not support JavaScript SDK? However, I was able to get the Facebook Recommend (Like) link into my website by using iFrame format. However, I am still trying to determine how to use counter with that format.
