Flag share options

Hi all,

I've realised that people are not really using the various content share options that are available on my network. To try and encourage people to share I've added a background image to the share functions at the bottom of blogs, videos etc:

 

Click image to see it in action:

Just add and adapt this css to your appearance (in classic mode):

 

/* Broadcast options in left panel */
div.left-panel {
    -moz-background-clip: border;
    -moz-background-origin: padding;
    -moz-background-size: auto auto;
    background-attachment: scroll;
    background-image: url(IMAGE URL);
    background-position: 0 0;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    clear: left;
    float: left;
    height: 77px;
    padding-left: 9px;
    padding-top: 34px;
    width: 216px;
}

 

I'll see if this encourages people to share!

    • NC for Hire
      I don't use the new design studio so i don't know on the css side of it i'm afraid.
      • I am not sure what is classicl mode means, Do l add this to the css advance codes in the themes?
  • I tried it out and it worked horribly on my site. Everything came out all bunched on top of each other.

    Love the idea though.
