SocialBookmarkingAddOn

Add social bookmarking links to a topic

Usage

To insert these onto a page you can use the %INCLUDE% macro with the appropriate section name for the site. For example, to add a button to Digg you can use the following:

%INCLUDE{"System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn" section="digg" }%

For more information about the %INCLUDE% macro, see VarINCLUDE.

To save you needing to write a bunch of includes on each topic you want the bookmarks to appear on, you can create your own macro in Main.SitePreferences with the code below (see raw text):

• Set SOCIALBOOKMARKS = Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn

Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn

Then in any topic the %SOCIALBOOKMARKS% macro will render as:

Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn Warning: Can't find topic System.SocialBookmarkingAddOn

This can also be done in the WebPreferences topic, for a specific web, or in a topic.
