Hi David,

I have updated the function you have for Whatsapp sharing as well

//Add items on the social share section
add_filter('avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'avia_add_social_share_link_arguments', 10, 1);
function avia_add_social_share_link_arguments($args)
{
	$args['whatsapp_icon'] = array("encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => "https://whatsapp.com/share?text=[title]&url=[permalink]", 'label' => __("Compartir en Whatsapp",'avia_framework'));
	return $args;
}

Please flush browser cache and review your website :)

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

You can use the wp_is_mobile function to load the appropriate URL pattern for desktop and mobile device.

// set whatsapp url pattern
add_filter('avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'avia_social_share_link_arguments_mod', 10, 1);
function avia_social_share_link_arguments_mod($args)
{
    $pattern = 'https://web.whatsapp.com/send?text=[permalink]';

    if ( wp_is_mobile() ) {
        $pattern = 'whatsapp://send?text=[permalink]';
    } 

	$args['whatsapp'] = array("encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => $pattern, 'label' => __("Deel via WhatsApp",'avia_framework'));
	return $args;
}

Best regards,
Ismael

Hi,

Thank you for using Enfold.

As far as I see only twitter is using this “shortlink”.

In functions.php of your child theme (or parent theme) add:

function my_social_share_link_arguments( array $args )
{
	$args['twitter'] = array( "encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => "https://twitter.com/share?text=[title]&url=[permalink]" );
	
	return $args;
}

add_filter( 'avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'my_social_share_link_arguments', 10, 1 );

If you encounter others let us know please.

Best regards,
Günter

Hi,

That is the default pattern of the twitter share button. The url parameter contains the shortlink instead of the post permalink. You can change that with the “avia_social_share_link_arguments” filter.

Example:

add_filter('avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'avia_add_social_share_link_arguments', 10, 1);
function avia_add_social_share_link_arguments($args)
{
    $permalink = get_the_permalink(get_the_ID());
    $args['twitter']['pattern'] = 'https://twitter.com/share?text=[title]&url=' . $permalink;
    return $args;
}

Hi,

You can use the “avia_social_share_link_arguments” filter to adjust the default social parameters including the pattern.

Example:

// https://kriesi.at/support/topic/whatsapp-button-in-share-box/#post-938674
// https://kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-get-twitter-social-share-element-to-display-summary-with-large-image/#post-987821

Hi,

Yes, that’s what it does. I think the card is not displaying because the og:url is supposed to be the same as the shared link in the tweet. Add this filter in the functions.php file to change the twitter pattern.

add_filter('avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'avia_add_social_share_link_arguments', 10, 1);
function avia_add_social_share_link_arguments($args)
{
    $permalink = get_the_permalink(get_the_ID());
	$args['twitter']['pattern'] = 'https://twitter.com/share?text=[title]&url=' . $permalink;
	return $args;
}

Or maybe that’s how it’s supposed to work — twitter cards will only display on the actual feed, not when tweeting.

Hi,

Have you tried using the “avia_social_share_link_arguments” filter? It can be found inside the includes > helper-social-media.php file. Example:

// https://kriesi.at/support/topic/whatsapp-button-in-share-box/#post-938674

Best regards,
Ismael

Hey (Email address hidden if logged out) ,
It looks like your code above for the link is not right, I believe this might be what you need to use:

//Add items on the social share section
add_filter('avia_social_share_link_arguments', 'avia_add_social_share_link_arguments', 10, 1);
function avia_add_social_share_link_arguments($args)
{
	$args['Whatsapp'] = array("encode"=>true, "encode_urls"=>false, "pattern" => "https://whatsapp.com/share?text=[title]&url=[permalink]");
	return $args;
}

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,
As all of these solutions were added without editing any theme files you should have no issues updating.
* I just looked back again and see the facebook translation was done editing: /wp-content/themes/enfold/includes/helper-social-media.php
So since you can’t override a helper function inside a child theme. The override will only work for template files such as the header.php, loops, templates etc. You can copy the whole “social icon builder” function in your child theme functions.php.

if(!class_exists('avia_social_share_links'))
{
	class avia_social_share_links
	{
		var $args;
		var $options;
		var $links = array();
		var $html  = "";
		var $title = "";
		var $counter = 0;
		
		/*
		 * constructor
		 * initialize the variables necessary for all social media links

}

I tested this in my localhost child theme to ensure it wourks, search for “Share with child theme” within this code and replace with your translation.
