    Hello,

    Your plugin seems really great, and maybe for me :
    I would like when someone shares an article on social network that in the same time it sends a notification to the author of article.
    Would it be possible with your trigger ?
    Thanks a lot for your help,
    Best regards,
    Clémentine Masson

    Hi Clémentine,

    this would be possible with 2 different approaches, but both will require some custom work.

    1) Listening for a Social media response and checking if someone really shared the link (must be a public share!). Would probably require hacking your social media plugin or even create such function from a scratch to handle the responses.

    2) Listening for a click event on the social media button. This is a lot easier, because will require “only” ajax listener. You cannot be sure someone clicked the button and actually shared because the sharing window could be just closed.

    Either way, not as easy as single line solution.
