Hi There,

Thanks for writing.

You could try adding this code in your customizer’s Custom JavaScript:

jQuery( document ).ready(function() {
jQuery( “.x-entry-share” ).insertBefore( “.single-product .product_meta” );
});

.single-product .product_meta <- class to be inserted. You can change it wherever you want.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

Hi There,

Because this requires a template change, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices. Then add this to your child theme’s functions.php file

/*adding social sharing buttons to woocommerce product pages */

add_action("woocommerce_single_product_summary", "add_social_sharing_to_product_page", 60);

function add_social_sharing_to_product_page() {
  echo do_shortcode("[share title='Share this Product' facebook='true' twitter='true' google_plus='true' pinterest='true' email='true' class='mtl']");
}

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Hi,
I tried adding this code to my funcitons.php file. It works but does not show the interior of the share button (no “f” for facebook, etc.)

Do you know how I would add that, or a better snippet of code to use for this functionality?

Thanks!

Hi Landon,

I have checked on your page but I am getting the error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /.../.../www/www/wp-content/themes/x-child/functions.php on line 42

Kindly fix it first so that we can check on this further. Thank you.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I had a bit of a booboo today. It’s fixed. Can you take another look at it?

Hi there,

Thanks for updating the thread! Upon checking your site, we see that you still have X-Shortcodes activated. Please deactivate and delete X-Shortcodes. Then install Cornerstone even if you don’t intend to use our new page builder. Cornerstone retires and replaces X-Shortcodes. The shortcodes required for X to funciton properly are within Cornerstone, hence it is a required plugin. Having both installed (even while deactivated) will cause conflicts.

Hope this helps – thanks!
