TweetButtonComponent


(Redirected from Help/components/twitter)

The Tweet Button Component allows users to share your site content via tweets with several display and content options.

Where to Find

This Component can be found in the "Add Content to Page" section of the Toolbar.

Adding to Website

After selecting this Component, you will be able to choose exactly where you want to add it!

You will see all available content locations it can be added to - on the current page only (content locations in Gold), on every page (content locations in Red), or on every page under the current page directory (content locations in Blue. For example - if you are editing a page called "About", the blue content locations would allow you to add this component to all pages under the /about/ directory).


Note: If you do not currently have your Twitter account configured as a Linked Account, you will be prompted to make this connection after choosing the content location.

You can optionally set a Title to be displayed above the feed content on your page.


The Button Layout field will let you set the format for the tweet button graphic that displays, allowing you to choose between:

  • vertical
  • horizontal
  • none


The Contributor field enables you to enter contributor information for the page to be tweeted.


The Tweet Text field allows you to set the title for the tweet. By default this will be the title of the current page.


By default, the URL to tweet will use the URL of the page the component is added to. You will likely only need to set this if you want to only tweet one page from the other pages on your site.


Editing
