Thank you for a great module. However, I just noticed a little bug. No matter what I put as text to be next to the share button, it says "test"

What is the version number? This was an old issue i fixed in version 2. As stated above i am going to remove the share button as it is deprecated by Facebook.

Okay, I'm trying to configure the FB Like button per the instructions in the Social Share admin panel. I was able to get the numeric ID from http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/. But I have no idea how to get an appID number. I go to the create an app page per the instructions (http://developers.facebook.com/setup/), it asks me for an app name for which I type AutumnEveGalleryLike and an App Namespace which I have no idea what that means so I leave it blank. I hit continue, do the Captcha, it tells me something is "loading" but then just dumps me back at the App Dashboard, with no indication that I even have an AppID number.

So... where do I get it from? I don't get it.

For what it's worth, it seems to work fine with the demo AppID and my numeric admin ID, so I'm not sure why the AppID is needed.

EDIT: Okay, I found it, eventually. I might suggest/request that more complete information be given in the Admin panel, for those of us who are not web devs.
Putting the link here for future generations... :P http://rieglerova.net/how-to-get-a-facebook-app-id/

Perhaps you can update the docs with your findings. The docs are for users by users.

Hello All!

Thanks psychoph, by this beautiful module!

For me it´s working nice until the moment.

I have a question, when i´m going to share in facebook, for example an album, why i can´t choose any picture of the album?

Please, take a look at www.obrasdarte.com/galeriaobrasdarte

For example, look this album: http://www.obrasdarte.com/galeriaobrasdarte/Carlos-Zemek/ , if i want to share the Gallery with the art work number "15" - "O Guardão do Submundo", the image of this art work doesn´t appear at the post of facebook. I don´t have all the images to choose...

Could be possible to share with any image of the album?

Thanks and Regards,

Tony

I found an issue with the Pintrest pin it button. When someones pins an image from your site, it links to the proper photo page but only pins the thumbnail image on Pintrest. Anyone know how to fix this?

OK, after messing around a bit I figured it out. For anyone else who wants to change it.

Open pinterest.html.php

find
$media = urlencode($item->thumb_url(true));

and change it to
$media = urlencode($item->thumb_url(false));

This change will allow the user to choose what image they want to pin from the page instead of defaulting to the thumbnail.

Is there a way to restrict the sharing to just the album and not individual pictures?

@psychoph: Useful module. There are 2 tags that should likely be added: the og:description tag (easy add) and the og:image:type tag (requires a bit more logic).

The og:desciption tag is just a matter of adding one line, as done in the attached file here: http://galleryproject.org/node/112388#comment-407512

If you're still looking and interested, I can help you get that working.
