social share button in custom footer page showing wrong URL

Hey tronicszone,
The social share element automatically links to the post that it is on, but since you have added it to your footer which is a “page as footer” it will link to the footer page.
If your footer was normal the social share would link to the page and not a post as designed.
I recommend that you remove the footer social share.

Best regards,

Hi,
To add the social share buttons to the bottom of each page you can use this function, try adding this code to the end of your functions.php file in Appearance > Editor:

add_filter('avf_template_builder_content', 'avf_template_builder_content_mod', 10, 1);
  function avf_template_builder_content_mod($content = "")
  {
	if(is_page() ) {
	  $addendum = do_shortcode(" [av_social_share title='Share this entry' style='' buttons='custom' share_facebook='aviaTBshare_facebook' share_twitter='aviaTBshare_twitter' share_gplus='aviaTBshare_gplus' share_linkedin='aviaTBshare_linkedin' share_mail='aviaTBshare_mail' custom_class='' admin_preview_bg='' av_uid='av-670mc8'] ");
	  $content = $content . $addendum ;
	}
	return $content;
  }

This function will add the social share buttons shortcode to the bottom of each page built with the Advanced Layout Builder, after the builder content, but before the footer, so the social share buttons should use the page as the url.
Please adjust the social share buttons shortcode to match your site, this code is just an example.
If you change if(is_page() ) to if(is_page() && !is_front_page() && !is_home()) the social share buttons will show on every page except the homepage.

Mike

Hi,

Great, I’m glad that you found a solution and thanks for the update. Please let us know if you should need any further help on the topic or if we can close it.

Hi,

@poplin thank you for your question, I will try to help you here but as this is not your thread you will not see what we write in the Private Content area, and if you include login details to the Private Content area it will also be seen by the thread owner, so this is not recommended. I also see that you are using Enfold v4.7.6.4, and we are currently using v4.8.1

I tested the above solution and it still works for v4.8, try adding this code to the end of your functions.php file in Appearance > Editor:

	add_filter('avf_template_builder_content', 'avf_template_builder_content_mod', 10, 1);
	function avf_template_builder_content_mod($content = "")
	{
	  if(is_page() ) {
		$addendum = do_shortcode("[av_social_share title='Share this entry' buttons='' yelp_link='https://www.yelp.com' style='' alb_description='' id='' custom_class='' template_class='' element_template='' one_element_template='' av_uid='av-km64rgtq' sc_version='1.0' admin_preview_bg='']");
		$content = $content . $addendum ;
	  }
	  return $content;
	}

This adds the social share buttons shortcode to the bottom of each page built with the Advanced Layout Builder, after the builder content, but before the footer, so the social share buttons will use the page as the url.
Please use this and remove any social share buttons from your “Footer Page”.
If you have trouble with this then please create a new thread and include a recap, and WordPress admin access in the Private Content area, of that thread (not this one).

Best regards,
Mike
