Pinterest Widget

The Pinterest Widget module provides a robust, secure integration between Drupal and Pinterest. It empowers site owners to increase content discoverability by allowing users to save images directly to their boards. Beyond a simple "Save" button, this module enables you to embed rich Pinterest content—including Pins, Boards, Profiles, and Follow buttons—using Drupal’s native Block and Field systems.

Features

• Save Button on Hover: Automatically displays the Pinterest "Save" button when users hover over images on enabled content types.
• Field System Integration: Provides custom Field Types, Widgets, and Formatters for Pin, Follow, Board, and Profile content.
• Configurable Blocks: Four distinct block types (Pin, Board, Profile, Follow) with support for fixed presets like Square, Sidebar, or Header.
• Flexible Customization: Full control over button size, shape, and language selection to match your site's branding.
• Responsive Design: Supports both fixed dimensions and fully custom layouts for embedded widgets.
• Security Focused: Includes a dedicated validator to sanitize Pinterest URLs and prevent malformed data or injection attacks.
