Share

Introduction

Share includes a Block that integrates the WebShareAPI if the device supports it, copies the link to the clipboard otherwise.

Unlike specific share links for Facebook, X and so on, this works with any service the users operating systems/browsers supports.

Features

• Integrates WebShareAPI if the device allows it, falls back to copying the link

• Template exposed to customize the output

• Integrates with meta tags for manage shared title and description (e.g. og:description)

Use cases:

• Visitors can share a page or blogpost with all the integrated services

Old description - Drupal 6 project

The Share module hosts the ability to have several different types of ways to share content via widgets and tabs. It is now possible to manage hosts of sharing methods and set criteria for when and where to display those methods. Each share method can be displayed as a block, inside the node, or in node links.

If we take the provided share widget and the included link codes tab, by creating and enabling multiple of the share widget with link codes we can customize each and every one. On Story nodes we can have link codes only display the direct link to the node, and on Page nodes we can have link codes display all three of it's available codes. It is possible to utilize multiple types of widgets, for instance we can show the share widget on Page nodes and the ShareThis widget on nodes with a particular term attached to it.

The module includes it's own widget, a ShareThis widget (requires ShareThis), and one tab type called Link Codes.
