Facebook Plugin

[gtgillis]

I have made a down and dirty plugin to add a Facebook link at the bottom of each photo.

You can see it in action at my personal and test sites
http://www.sillig.com/coppermine
http://www.rudebastard.com/coppermine

Both of my sites use a version of CMG that is bridged to Geeklog so your mileage may vary.

[Edit GauGau 2010-03-03]
This plugin has been added to the subversion repository: http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/branches/cpg1.4.x/plugins/facebook

It has been updated as well to reflect the version checking routines in the plugin manager that are meant to make sure that galleries don't break because of plugins installed that aren't meant for that particular version of the gallery.

Thanx ! Usefull and small add for all Facebook addict  
Work as expected, a link is visible bottom the picture.

But there is a 404 error after click on it.

Maybe you forgot this JavaScript =>

Code Select Expand

<script>function fbs_click() {u=location.href;t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');return false;}</script>

You must to add it in your plugin.

Works great for me. No error here.

I tweaked the padding and used a facebook button, instead of text.


I see the error now. When clicking on the link from facebook it comes back to your gallery with a 404 error.

the problem is that the mod assumes the gallery is installed in the "coppermine" subdirectory.

Use

Code Select Expand

$CONFIG['site_url']to determine the actual gallery URL (including the path) instead of hardcoding it.

Doesn't work with JS turned off, so why is the HTML-link populated in the first place - it will cause a lot of broken links for all spiders and confuse visitors with JS turned off. Nice plugin, but needs improvement.

I said it was dirty but I'll work on it.

This is a version of the plugin I have tweaked for use on my site.  It doesn't require javascript and it autodetects the coppermine folder.

Well done, it work nice

The image button was not loading for me.

Open codebase.php and search line 48, then search for:

Code Select Expand

<img src="plugins/facebook/facebook_share_button" width=75 height=33 /> and add the ".jpg" to the file name.

That's strange that it worked for me without the .jpg extension. But it's fixed now.

Hello, thanks for this plugin.
It is possible to locate the facebook button under the photos border? Maybe near comment box or File information?

[tinorebel]

Working fine for me... just out of the box: upload, install and enjoy!

Thanks for the plug in!

[tinorebel]

mmm.... just found out that this plug-in sets the link in facebook dyrectly to the photo.
Would it be possible to link to the coppermine page containing the photo instead???

Is it possible to integrate this to EnlargeIt?
I want to add a facebook button in EnlargeIt.
I have noticed that he facebook plugin doesn't show up in images when EnlargeIt is used.
Thanks!

[friendjain1]

Is it possible to make such plugin for orkut??

[Joachim Müller]

Your question does not belong into this thread!

Thank you for a great plugin, but I have a small problem. When I share a link from my gallery, all I get is the tiny thumbnail when clicking on the link from Facebook.

Any idea why?

This is the page I share.
http://download.atvforumet.com/CP/displayimage.php?album=topn&cat=0&pos=2

This is what it links to.

No worries. It was the BBcode plugin that made the little problem. Once removed, all is good :-)

Is it possible the link to url absoluty ?

The reason I did it that way was because the picture preview does not show up if I link to the page URL but it does linking to the fileimage.
