Hello!
Re the social toolbar (see bottom of this page: http://www.tripreads.com/istanbul)
All of the icons, when clicked direct to the “pretty” permalink, except Twitter, which links to http://www.tripreads.com/?p=19.
Any way to fix this? I’m using the Enfold child theme.
Thanks!Hey Jennifer!
It doesn’t because of the Twitter character limit, if you want to change it you’d need to edit
/includes/helper-social-media.phpand change line 147:'twitter' => array("encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => "https://twitter.com/share?text=[title]&url=[shortlink]"),To:
'twitter' => array("encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => "https://twitter.com/share?text=[title]&url=[permalink]"),To have this mod on a child theme you can copy the whole
avia_social_share_linksclass to your child functions.php.Regards,
JosueAh – I thought that URLs were shortened to a specific character length regardless of link length.
Nevertheless, very helpful. Thank you!Hello again. This was super helpful — one follow up question though. The share options are coded to pull the WordPress page title rather than its SEO title. Is there another shortcode that I can substitute for text=[title] to have it pull the SEO title instead?
Here’s an example:
http://www.tripreads.com/italy/
Twitter (and others) currently pulls only “Italy” rather than “Italy Travel Reading List”
Thanks!Hey!
Try changing this line:
$replace['title'] = !isset($this->post_data['title']) ? get_the_title() : $this->post_data['title'];To:
$replace['title'] = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_yoast_wpseo_title', true);Best regards,
JosueHi! Finally getting a chance to revisit this. Thank you for the code – that works for the other social networks, but not Twitter. For Twitter, it leaves a blank space. Any suggestions? Thank you!
Hm, that’s strange. Can you please create us a WordPress administrator account? post it here as a private reply.
Regards,
Josue
