New version of WP Socializer v3.0 is released !

Hello!

I am slow with testing new wordpress features, and later I will get back with more ideas. First I was angry that for this new version everthing failed to load, just later understanding it needs a complete configuration.
Right now I just want to say I really appreciate the new Floating Sharebar, being available with transparency also on mobile.

A question!
In previous version I modified this option in wp-socializer php file:
xfbml=1, and added Facebook code in header.php
Momentarily I don’t know how to create a child theme. It could be useful to provide an option: Load JavaScript SDK?.
That would avoid the trouble of child themes and modifying files for so many beginners.

Your work is much appreciated. I like the new wp-socializer, so I will donate a litlle in a few weeks. Thank you!

Thanks for trying WP Socializer plugin, good to hear that you like it.

I didn’t understand the option to have “Load JavaScript SDK” ?
Can you please explain what you are trying to achieve ?

Thanks,

Hi Aakash,

I installed this on a WordPress Multisite with 80+ sites. With this upgrade, do I need to reconfigure it on each site? Or is it safe to just click Upgrade and everything will work as before?

Hi Marhgil,

Thanks for using WP Socializer in your site. It is good to hear that it is used in 80+ sites.

I’m actually working on import/export feature which will be released in couple of weeks.
Using it you can create one template, export and import it into your other sites.

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi Aakash,

Thanks for your quick reply. So, I have to hold my upgrade yet and wait for that import/export feature. It would be a lot of work if I have to reconfigure each site one-by-one.

Thanks,
Marhgil

Marghil,

Yes I agree, the old version is not modular.
But the new one has an extendable modular architecture + has visual editor.

So backward compatibility is difficult and takes a lot of work.

Once import/export is ready you can create a template and import them to other sites in a single click.

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi, I just checked this new version. It’s really great, simpler and no bug found for now.

I used to use the wp_socializer function. It doesn’t exist anymore, but I need less than before, because your plugin allows more things than before. But this function is really usefull when We need to place buttons exactly where We need or for a template which doesn’t call for the_content() (it could happen when a website uses lot of custom fields).

Second thing I regret is that it seems not possible anymore to chose language on the facebook button, so I got my buttons in English on a website which is not. It was an useful setting on previous versions.

By the way, for what I’ve tested today, this 3.0 version sounds very great, good job and thank you ??

@troon_vegan,

Hi,

It is good to hear that you love the plugin very much.
Coming to your queries,

QUERY 1: With V3 it is now very easy to insert buttons into your theme directly. I have made a video tutorial. Link is below

To be simple, just add <?php echo do_shortcode( 'COPY THE SHORTCODE FROM SETTINGS'); ?> into your theme to get the relevant social button.

QUERY 2: To change language, open wp-socializer/services/facebook.php
Search for en_US and replace it with your desired language code. Refer facebook doc for the official code.

Please post your feature requests in this page, it might help me track it before every release.

Thanks,
Aakash

The setup all looks great! I like the look of the buttons, as well, and the mobile part works well.

However, here’s my only issue:

I am unable to turn it off on my pages (both the mobile sharebar and the share buttons). I’ve tried several settings. Initially, I set the page rules to:

Hide in selected pages
Page is:
and then clicked on all my pages, of which there aren’t many

Then I tried this:

Hide in selected pages
Post type is page

Neither one is hiding them in my pages. I can use the “hide in all pages” and “show in all pages” successfully, I just can’t limit it in any way, it seems.

Here’s a screenshot of my settings:

Am I missing something obvious here, or is the functionality for turning it on and off selectively not working properly?

Thanks!

Edit: I went ahead and added an <style>.wp-socializer {display:none;} </style> to my page.php to hide it myself so that I can use it. I just wanted you to know it was happening!

With the issue you reported, yes there was a bug in the code ! Nice catch.

The fix is just a one line change. I’ll make it official in the next release.
