Title: Social Sharing Plugin (Facebook Like/FB Share/FB Comments/Twitter/VZ zeigen)
Post by: 1aB on January 26, 2011, 11:23:21 pm
Due to some popular demand here's a Coppermine plugin to put a selection of buttons for a few social networks on the picture page.
Now that I am finished as far as this, I notice there is already an existing plugin which seems to do similar things, Facebook Sharer (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=65740.0).

Now if you also want to try this one, it has quite a bunch of config options, as I wanted to hardcode only as little as possible.

Specifically in Facebook it seems to be actually quite a puzzle to predict when or when not a thumbnail will be shown. Although all elements are always provided with a thumbnail image by this plugin, I have managed to only get Facebook to display it right away when either using the old sharer.php, or the Like button but then needing to enter something into the balloon that turns up when liking something. As all of this seems to be functionality inside Facebook, I would not be surprised if it may change every once in a while. If anyone knows a way to provision Facebook into always displayng the thumbnail -- please let me know and/or contribute.

This plugin works together with fb_oauth (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,65943.0.html) but can also be used independently of it.

Install via the plugin manager. Check the configuration options; I hope the inline explanations with them are clear.

Important: On a picture page double-check the HTML code that arrives in the browser to make sure that it contains OpenGraph metatags:
Code: [Select]
<!-- BEGIN OpenGraph metatags -->
<meta property="og:site_name" content="..." />
[...]
<meta property="og:url" content="..." />
<!-- END OpenGraph metatags -->
These tags missing is a known issue with the XFeed plugin and possibly others that also use the page_meta hook. Please fiddle with the plugins order in the plugin manager until these tags really appear in the picture page header. For Facebook you might also find the Facebook Linter (http://developers.facebook.com/tools/lint/) useful to check what those information mean for Facebook.

Many thanks for lots of useful ideas and testing go to Thomas Behlke of the Fotofreunde Rathenow (http://www.fotofreunde-rathenow.de/) who, just as myself, is amazed with all the opportunities that Coppermine and its plugins can offer.

If you like this and can implement even more additions or social networks or improve the (default) layout, please feel free to contribute and extend the code and share it back in this thread.

Now I hope that this may be really some use for some people out there :-)

Best Regards,
Roland

looks good so far :)
I'm liking all the options

However, having one issue with my comments box...  I'm getting an error stating the feature is not enabled for my domain, yet I can't find an option anywhere (like in your settings or in the application developer settings on FB) that "turns on" this feature. 

Any help?

Hi,

Facebook shows you the page title. Here you have to limit the length of your domain.

Example:

not so http://teknosounds.com/tspics/index.php?cat=10

better so http://teknosounds.com/tspics/

then it should work

Hmm, the application I'm using is set up for my vbulletin forum, but everything points to just http://teknosounds.com/
So, if I understand you correctly, I'm going to either need to change the URL referenced to http://teknosounds.com/tspics/ or make a new application just for the coppermine gallery?

Post by: 1aB on January 27, 2011, 07:56:30 am
Hi TeknoSounds,

the problem is likely that the OpenGraph metatags are missing in your gallery, check the HTML source of your picture page ...those metatags are probably eaten up by some other plugin.

Try to change the oder of the plugins in the plugin manager.
Or fix the other plugin :-), so that on the page_meta hook it does not create new content but appends to the input parameter that it received from Coppermine. (Initially I had made the same mistake in social_sharing's page_meta hook -- in social_sharing this is now fixed so if social_sharing's page_meta is called last, it does not eat up the other plugin's page_meta result.)

Hope this helps.
Roland

Post by: TeknoSounds on January 27, 2011, 08:14:27 am
Well that was the case, the meta tags weren't showing. Now I've corrected the order and they're showing, but its still telling me:
Quote
This feature is not yet enabled for your domain, teknosounds.com

i.e. http://teknosounds.com/tspics/displayimage.php?album=242&pid=27365#top_display_media
(can view source and see the og meta tags as well)


now then, i've used the application I initially set up for my site for vbulletin, however, that setup didn't require anything special being done to the app, just setting the URL to the base site and domain to the domain.  Nothing else has been set as far as I can see.  But I don't see any options for "enabling comments for my domain" nor is there any help on the plugins section for fb for the comments.

Hi,

yes you have to create new App ID, then enter back into the plugin and then it should go.

Right, now the metatags are there. As far as I can judge, the approach with using the same AppId for the forum and for the gallery when both are under http://teknosounds.com/ and that is registered with Facebook, should be fine.

But wait... today I am getting that message in my gallery, too; when I try the comments box :-(
Seems Facebook is making some changes currently....?? A little bit clueless about this at the moment ???
Title: Re: Social Sharing Plugin (Facebook Like/FB Share/FB Comments/Twitter/VZ zeigen)
Post by: 1aB on January 27, 2011, 09:57:15 am
Try this. This one works for me ...at least today ;)
Background and reason why I think it would work tomorrow, too:
v1.0 had specified <fb:comments href="..."> but href is actually not a documented attribute, in fact it seems to me now it has triggered some Facebook-internal functionality, which I *suspect* is why Facebook is blocking it now.
v1.1 is now specifying only <fb:comments url="..."> and that is per the Facebook JSDK doc the correct way to refer the containing page.

Works!

But now I have a double Like button?

Does the new comment box have a like button attached to it now?  kinda looks like it...

How do you get the facebook comments work in your gallerys? or is it part of the plugin?
(As posted above, i cant see the config options of this plugin cause of erroro i posted)

Make sure to grab version 1.1 in a couple posts above mine

1) You need to create a facebook application
2) Input the facebook appid into the appropriate field in config
3) Turn on comments in config

hopefully that gets it for you

Post by: 1aB on January 27, 2011, 10:44:59 am
@newx: oops, the message about http_build_query() probably means that I am using PHP5 and have not taken care of compatibility with PHP4.

@TeknoSounds: make Facebook show thumbnails seems to be quite unpredictable :-) But idea for using this for album level, too, is good ...will require some effort, though.
Title: Re: Social Sharing Plugin (Facebook Like/FB Share/FB Comments/Twitter/VZ zeigen)
Post by: newx on January 27, 2011, 10:59:19 am
Got it -i've switched to php5.

Works now! *yeah* exept pulling images while using "Share"...

Post by: 1aB on January 27, 2011, 06:33:25 pm
v1.2 here; at the moment I can still do quite fast, cannot promise forever ;)

@TeknoSounds: new album-level options, they can visually be placed on the thumbnails page. Unfortunately I did not find a way to hook into the album descriptions on the index page; that would have been cool but seems impossible unless we get a new hook from Coppermine developers for that :)

@newx: the plugin now does not use http_build_query() any more. Not sure if it would break for you at another point now, or whether it would work now. Would appreciate a test :)

@Quinn: from your PM, I have found a few issues which might play a role when working together with the Lightbox plugin. Should work better now.

Thanks all!

No, no, thank you!  Amazing work!

You can request a new hook point, hopefully they'll oblige.  Please! :)

Okay, so something I was just pondering... how are we to see when comments are made on pictures? previously we had the ability to hit Last Comments or as Admins, Review Comments.  But since this is store via FB now instead of coppermine... hmm. 
I guess a solution would be, is there a way to have it post to the wall of the App when someone makes a comment? I need to ask vB about this too...
Title: Re: Social Sharing Plugin (Facebook Like/FB Share/FB Comments/Twitter/VZ zeigen)
Post by: 1aB on January 28, 2011, 12:02:52 am
Hook is now requested :)

What use the Facebook commenting is... or how to use it best, no idea.
Just a pity that Facebook seems to be blocking the commenting functionality that I had seen with href= for a few hours. (It had properly picked up the site_name/appname then, and even when somene commented the comment on the user's wall, those comments have been added back into the comments stream in the gallery ...which with only url= is not happening. :( ) Maybe worth to research / check every once in a while if Facebook officially brings back those features, rather than saying "not yet enabled for your domain" when it sees the href attribute... (or does someone know a different approach/solutuon for this?)
Title: Re: Social Sharing Plugin (Facebook Like/FB Share/FB Comments/Twitter/VZ zeigen)
Post by: TeknoSounds on January 28, 2011, 07:36:09 am
Found an answer to one of my questions...you can at least be set to notified of comments made in the gallery.
To set it up, when viewing a picture, click the Administer Comments under the Post button of the comment field
Check the box next to Notification Subscribers

Hi,

i am going to test that this evening (the share with pic problem)

But i have one more idea:
Many Blogs using disqus for their comments (http://disqus.com/ (http://disqus.com/))
Is there a way to implement disqus in this plugin?
So that you can choose if you like to use fb.comments or disqus one.

Post by: 1aB on January 28, 2011, 04:11:46 pm
I haven't heard of Disqus before, but I have now put their Universal Code (http://docs.disqus.com/developers/universal/) in the plugin's social_sharing_makelinks and social_sharing_makealbumlinks() functions ...and at least I can "see something" with the "example" shortname. I read at Disqus that they want one to register with them ...so I call this "untested" now, and let me know how it works :-)

As Steve Jobs would say: Awsome! Amazing!
This little Plugin turns the "old" CPG into a very 2.0 application! Great work!
Great that you thought about commenting albums - geil!

Now lets make it better :D
FB Share still pics pictures at sharing (but the "new" like buttons also allows sharing - so the "old" share on is superfluous)

Disqus
I like disqus..
I registered an get a username.
I picked "show fabeook and twitter login buttons" but they wont show up.
Everythings else seems to work as it should.

The url transfer for disqus comments seems to be invalid.
At the disqus backend theres might be missing the album ID so that you cant return (and cant find) to the comment.

@newx: Okay, I found a couple of mistakes that I had made in the code. And fixed them.
I think each of those mistakes relates to one of the problems that you mentioned. :)
So they might be fixed with v1.4 now. ;)

@TeknoSounds: Cool placement that the FB Share button really fits into the album title bar on your site. In the <span> attributes configuration you might want to try whether style="padding-left: 2ex;" would separate it a bit from the text and does not glue directly to it ;-)

@newx, really cool site with a fresh design for the gorgeous art not only in the pics but also in the hairstyles. I just notice the OpenGraph metags seem to be missing in the headers of your site, which makes the sharing/liking to Facebook ...suboptimal. Try to set the social_sharing plugin as last one in the plugins chain, and if it should eat up any other plugin's output (I think it won't, I have already fixed two bugs in that area :)) let me know.
That some (http://www.friseur-fragen.de/frisurengalerie/displayimage.php?album=103&pid=3161) of the pictures are not displaying to me, I hope is not my plugin's fault but due to something else???

Ouch, what a stupid typo that I made.
Of course it should not be htmlspecialcgars but htmlspecialchars -- from line 453 means it happens on pictures that do not have a title set, so that plugin uses the filename as title.
You can safely correct the spelling, and so will I.

Alright, so apparently the "Notification Subscription" deal thing is broken or something.  Not getting any notifications when someone posts a comment and such.  I assume this will be fixed in a new version on their side, so nothing we can do about that...

However, I did find someone who wrote a script for emailing you whenever you received  a new notification.  1aB, do you think this could be implemented as part of your plugin? Otherwise I'll have to hack it to get it working right :-/  Here's a link:

Bug!

For the Facebook Share option for the Albums in the Configure Plugin, it won't pull the setting for the span tags from the database, so when you resave the options it'll save it with no options and must be entered every time or resaved with options later.

Hi, I don't get this Facebook thing:
----
A comma-separated list of the Facebook User IDs of page administrators. Facebook asks to set either this or an AppId as part of the OpenGraph tags. A Facebook User ID (uid) is a long decimal number. For "newer" Facebook accounts it is part of the profile link. For "older" Facebook accounts it seems to appear only in certain other links within the profile.
---

I don't have any Facebook account, but it seems that I need to insert a sort of id in order to show the LIKE button, am I wrong? What should exactly insert in the "A comma-separated list of the Facebook User IDs of page administrators" text box?

Thanks

Hi everybody  ;)

First of all, thanks for your great job. This plugin is awesome !!!

But i have a (little) issue with the integration in Facebook. I use the functionnalities of :


When I use the Like button, the related feed is added in Facebook with the associated image found in the meta "og:image". But when I make a comment, the feed appear in my Facebook profile, but not the image...

This is really annoying, because I'd like my FB friends to see the image linked to the comments!

Is there a way to fix this, or is this the normal way Facebook proceed with the comments application ?

Thanks for your help,

Tooney.

According to an administrator of the FB forum, the functionality of picking the "og" informations is not yet available for the comments box...

Too bad, I lose interest for this. I hope FB will add this feature soon!

I think a superb enhancement of this plugin would be to allow it to show the icons in other plugins too such as EnlargeIt (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,57424.0.html) or other lightbox style plugins where the standard intermediate view is not shown. Maybe provide a simple php code that people can include in their scripts to show the buttons in their own.

Hi,

sorry for not having come back for some time.
Mainly answering to TeknoSounds' questions:

Using the filename appears in two functions,
Both occurences look similar:
Code: [Select]
if(!$title || strlen($title) == 0) {
                // We should put *something* for the og:title
                $title = htmlspecialchars(preg_replace('/\.[^\.]*$/', '', $pic_info['filename']));
}
It could be an option to simply put
Code: [Select]
                $title = 'a picture';there, I assume.
Or maybe
Code: [Select]
                $title = $CURRENT_ALBUM_DATA['title'];would work, too (unsure whether it needs extra html/bbcode de/encoding).
Is it widely requested that a fixed text or the album title should be put when there is no picture title?


The bug in the admin page with the span for the FB share, probably two lines missing in admin.php (I must have lost overview over my copying&pasting at some point...)
Code: [Select]
$html_plugin_social_sharing_fbshare_attr = htmlentities($CONFIG['plugin_social-sharing_fbshare_attr']);
$html_plugin_social_sharing_afbshare_attr = htmlentities($CONFIG['plugin_social-sharing_afbshare_attr']);

The additional Javascript code for mail notifications... I suppose it should be possible to put it in, as it just seems to be some more HTML to add. (Actually it is rather the config options GUI which makes things really complicated  ;))

About the layout... well... I was actually hoping someone with great CSS skills could find out how to align all the different elements optimally ;) and I could then put that into the plugin as a default for all the <span> attributes  ;D

Just some comments for the moment...

tyty, will look into making those changes :)

As I mentioned in the Download Link thread, I think the JS from the emailer is conflicting from getting it to show...  is there somewhere I could send you my files and maybe look to see what I messed up? Oh the emailer works great, except for emailing you the actual comment, just emails you the link to the page/pic it was posted on

Due to some popular demand here's a Coppermine plugin to put a selection of buttons for a few social networks on the picture page.
Now that I am finished as far as this, I notice there is already an existing plugin which seems to do similar things, Facebook Sharer (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=65740.0).

Now if you also want to try this one, it has quite a bunch of config options, as I wanted to hardcode only as little as possible.

Specifically in Facebook it seems to be actually quite a puzzle to predict when or when not a thumbnail will be shown. Although all elements are always provided with a thumbnail image by this plugin, I have managed to only get Facebook to display it right away when either using the old sharer.php, or the Like button but then needing to enter something into the balloon that turns up when liking something. As all of this seems to be functionality inside Facebook, I would not be surprised if it may change every once in a while. If anyone knows a way to provision Facebook into always displayng the thumbnail -- please let me know and/or contribute.

This plugin works together with fb_oauth (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,65943.0.html) but can also be used independently of it.

Install via the plugin manager. Check the configuration options; I hope the inline explanations with them are clear.

Important: On a picture page double-check the HTML code that arrives in the browser to make sure that it contains OpenGraph metatags:
Code: [Select]
<!-- BEGIN OpenGraph metatags -->
<meta property="og:site_name" content="..." />
[...]
<meta property="og:url" content="..." />
<!-- END OpenGraph metatags -->
These tags missing is a known issue with the XFeed plugin and possibly others that also use the page_meta hook. Please fiddle with the plugins order in the plugin manager until these tags really appear in the picture page header. For Facebook you might also find the Facebook Linter (http://developers.facebook.com/tools/lint/) useful to check what those information mean for Facebook.

Many thanks for lots of useful ideas and testing go to Thomas Behlke of the Fotofreunde Rathenow (http://www.fotofreunde-rathenow.de/) who, just as myself, is amazed with all the opportunities that Coppermine and its plugins can offer.

If you like this and can implement even more additions or social networks or improve the (default) layout, please feel free to contribute and extend the code and share it back in this thread.

Now I hope that this may be really some use for some people out there :-)

Best Regards,
Roland

Hi,

I am trying to get this to work but I am getting an error from Facebook when I click on the "Like" icon.

Quote
The app ID specified within the "fb:app_id" meta tag is not allowed on this domain. You must setup the Connect Base Domains for your app to be a prefix of http://www.alanzeleznikar.com/photography/displayimage-8-264.html?pid=264.

In the plug-in configuration screen I have my Facebook User ID included in the Fecbook USer ID page adminstrators entry. The next configuration item says "AppId of a Facebook App in whose context the page belongs. Facebook asks to set either this or an Admin Facebook User IDs as part of the OpenGraph tags." I interpreted that as meaning if I have my user ID in the field above this one I don't need anything for this field.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

I'm not certain about using just an admin ID, but you could simply create an app in the FB Developers area.  It's pretty simple to do, then can use that appID.

It appears FB updated their comment code again in the past couple of days.  Broke the CSS I had going and the ability for it to email me when comments were made :( 
Looks like gotta figure out things again *sigh*

OK, I created a placeholder Facebook app to get an app ID, entered it into the appropriate field on the configuraiton page. If I click "Like" I get an error from Facebook but it looks like the "Like" is passed through to my Facebook page. So I guess it works but not as elegantly as it could, maybe...

A plus information more: if "Include detailed OpenGraph metatags for restricted content?" option is enabled, then correct thumbnail will show on post. But if this off, then will show a picture thumbnail what before actual image.

Ok, I don't understand a thing:
- If I select to default theme from any original theme, or NoteBored theme, then FB public will work correctly.
- If I select my generated theme (fotosarokA and FotosarokB), then meta tags there, but FB not published correctly.
I try replace theme.php, template.html or style.css in my themes, but nothing happened. Where is my problem??? My code is valid, labels in template.html is correct, and theme.php with empty content not solved my problem. But this plugin will work only original themes...
Need modify this plugin, or...?

OK, here is my solution:
In my theme.php was a line:
define('THEME_HAS_PROGRESS_GRAPHICS', 1);

If this line removed, then share working correctly!!! I haven't progress graphics in my templates.
Sorry my posts, but if anyone have same problem, need search in template files!

I think facebook cached my page, because this picture was liked with correct labels, and re-like was ok, but if like older (not liked) picture, I get problem again.

If delete UserID for admin, then work correctly again. I don't understand what's happened. ID is mine.

I do not fully understand programming but after a few days of trying to get the href message it seems to have gone

in codebase.php

$links .= '</div>';

and replace
Code: [Select]
$links = '<span id="plugin_social-sharing"'.$CONFIG['plugin_social-sharing_span_attr'].'>';
if($CONFIG['plugin_social-sharing_fblikeb_js'] || $CONFIG['plugin_social-sharing_fbcomments']) {

Hi Roland,

first of all, great work with that plugin! Runs nicely so far.
I have one question / suggestion regarding the selection of Categories where you want the share buttons to appear. I realised, that if you allow one category, that does not mean that you allowed subcategories as well. Under certain circumstances that might be a nice option if not too hard to implement.
Further, is it possible to disallow certain categories instead of allowing all the others? What if my category names have special characters? Both does not work for me yet.

Any help on this would be very much appreciated!

Cheers,
André

Hi all,

I finally found a solution to disallow a single category and allow all the others. The expression
Code: [Select]
/^(?:[^P]+|P(?!rivat))*$/Disallows the category "Privat" but includes all the others. This is exactly what I was looking for. Just in case this is useful for others as well.

When i use Facebook Object Debugger i see that if i share a picture it should look like the first attachment, which is the right and what i want. But if i share that picture on my profile, in a group or in a page it looks like the second attachment. At the third attachment is what Facebook Object Debugger sees about that picture URL. Of course i have tried to share another photo but i have the same result. Thanks for any help.

I used some information on the thread you suggested and i managed to set the OpenGraph tags for each picture, except it's description (og:description tag) and now when i share the photo at facebook it looks exactly as i want. But because the Social Sharing Plugin is more easy to configure and use, i would like to use that instead of manually modifying the code. Is there any solution?

Hello,

I updated today my gallery to the latest 1.6 version.

Unfortunately the plugin does not work and when i have it activated in my gallery, it throws the following error when clicking to view a photo:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mysql_num_rows() in /home/leofor/public_html/photos/plugins/social_sharing/codebase.php:840 Stack trace: #0 /home/leofor/public_html/photos/include/plugin_api.inc.php(218): social_sharing_metaheaders('') #1 /home/leofor/public_html/photos/include/functions.inc.php(944): CPGPluginAPI::filter('page_meta', '') #2 /home/leofor/public_html/photos/include/init.inc.php(444): load_template() #3 /home/leofor/public_html/photos/displayimage.php(19): require('/home/leofor/pu...') #4 {main} thrown in /home/leofor/public_html/photos/plugins/social_sharing/codebase.php on line 840

Is there a plan to make the plugin compatible for Coppermine 1.6?

At all files under the plugin directory ( /public_html/photos/plugins/social_sharing ) , i changed mysql_ to mysqli_ and the error disappeared. However, at Facebook debugger ( https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fleoforeia.gr%2Fphotos%2Fdisplayimage.php%3Fpid%3D17639 ) it does not fetch any information from my gallery.

Note that prior the update, i was using PHP 5.6 and now PHP 7.3
