Social Media Sharer - ShareThis block
Is there any tutorial how to use this ShareThis block?
Re: Social Media Sharer - ShareThis block
What are the link structures for sharing Facebook, Google, Pinterest, Twitter with this block?. Thanx
Re: Social Media Sharer - ShareThis block
There is no tutorial for this block. This is just a layout idea, it is made up from standard WWB objects, just like all the other blocks.
The links you will have to fill in yourself.

In this case the "Share This" is just a example, nothing on it is a activate component. This then means you can add an event to the button with a link to the supporting social media required.Blocks are basically just groups of standard WWB objects so once dragged to the page you can fully customize the behavior and appearance of the content

Ok. But the URls must be encoded as in the example code in the link for sharing WB

It can be done using an urls encoder/decoder, i.e., but not necessarily as it has its own structure.

What should I add to the link code to include image along with its size width & height?

This might be added to OPEN GRAPH PROPERTIES but not necessarily. The whole Open Graph description may be added manually for more advanced users.

Re: Social Media Sharer - ShareThis block
Pablo,
There's a missing og:url in Open Graph which is quite important
Another type: content="website"
<head prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns# fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb# website: http://ogp.me/ns/website#">
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="302184056577324" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:url" content="Put your own URL to the object here" />
<meta property="og:title" content="Sample Website" />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://s-static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/de ... _blank.png" />
