I’ve just completed a small extension for BlogEngine.NET which adds Facebook Sharing and Twitter – Retweeting options to your blog posts.
Here is a snapshot of how it would look -
Installing this extension is as easy as any other extension in BlogEngine.NET. If this is your first time, here are the steps -
- Download the zip containing extension file from this page and extract it your local system.
- Upload ‘TwitBookShare.cs’ file to the ‘App_Code\Extensions\’ directory on your blog installation.
- Tweak your theme and add following style -
.fb_share_no_count{display:block!important;visibility:hidden; }This style keeps Facebook Share button on the same level as of the Tweet button when a post has not been shared even once.
I could also create this as a user control if someone needs it for embedding into a Theme. I will be adding a few more options to this extension to control the styles. Will update here once its done.
If you happen to use this, please do leave your feedback. :)
