Access to Entry Share JavaScript Code in Pro

Hi Guys,

I am using Google Tag Manager on my site. The only area that I am struggling with is Entry Share Shortcode in my Blog. The variable is identified as x-share, but I wish to create my own class in the Child Theme to allow the variable to display the text; facebook, linked, etc.

Using the Entry Share Shortcode does not allow for the class within the Shortcode, only within the div. Maybe I am missing something more obvious

Anyway, where is the JScript Code file in Pro for Entry Share

Hi @gnorris,

You should be able to do that by overriding the code for the entry share through the child theme. Please install and activate the child theme and login through FTP then edit the functions.php then add this code:

// Displaying Excerpt in Recent Posts
// =============================================================================

function x_shortcode_entry_share_v2( $atts ) {
  extract( shortcode_atts( array(
    'id'          => '',
    'class'       => '',
    'style'       => '',
    'title'       => '',
    'share_title' => '',
    'facebook'    => '',
    'twitter'     => '',
    'google_plus' => '',
    'linkedin'    => '',
    'pinterest'   => '',
    'reddit'      => '',
    'email'       => '',
    'email_subject' => ''
  ), $atts, 'x_share' ) );

  $share_url        = urlencode( get_permalink() );

  if ( is_singular() ) {
    $share_url = urlencode( get_permalink() );
  } else {
    global $wp;
    $share_url = urlencode( home_url( ($wp->request) ? $wp->request : '' ) );
  }

  if ( is_singular() ) {
    $share_title = ( $share_title    != '' ) ? esc_attr( $share_title ) : urlencode( get_the_title() );
  } else {
    $share_title = ( $share_title    != '' ) ? esc_attr( $share_title ) : urlencode( apply_filters( 'the_title', get_page( get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) )->post_title) );
  }

  $share_source     = urlencode( get_bloginfo( 'name' ) );
  $share_image_info = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'full' );
  $share_image      = ( function_exists( 'x_get_featured_image_with_fallback_url' ) ) ? urlencode( x_get_featured_image_with_fallback_url() ) : urlencode( $share_image_info[0] );

function x_recent_posts_excerpt() {
  remove_shortcode( 'x_share' );
  add_shortcode( 'x_share', 'x_shortcode_entry_share_v2' );
}

You can then make any change you want in the code above to fit your requirements.

Hope this helps.

March 2021 Update: The above code example has been adjusted to account for a change to a function name.

Thanks Jade,

I will give that a try.

Gerard

Let us know how it goes, Gerard.

Hi Jade,

I added the above code to the child theme functions.php file. How do I call it into my post pages? I assume that I do not use the Entry Share Shortcode?

Many Thanks,
Gerard

Hi Gerard,

You’ll have to use [x_share] shortcode to your post content. Example

[x_share facebook="true" twitter="true" title="Share This!!"]

Hope this helps.

Cheers Rad,

That worked. Thank you.

Gerard.

You’re always welcome Gerard!

Cheers.
