Adding Social Bookmarking Links to WordPress
by Bandicoot Marketing on | Posted in Tutorials | 6 comments
There are plugins that do this but once again, I’m a code junky and I love being able to go in and manipulate the code to get what I want. I just recently added some social bookmarking links at the top of this site, as you can see.
Here is the code I used in my header.php file to make them all work.
<a href="http://technorati.com/faves?add=<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" target="_blank"><img src="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/images/technorati.png" alt="Add to Technorati" /></a> <?php if(is_home()) {?> <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>&title=<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>&bodytext=<?php bloginfo('description'); ?>" title="Digg this story" target="_blank"> <?php } else { ?> <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=<?php the_permalink() ?>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>&bodytext=<?php the_excerpt_rss() ?>" title="Digg this story" target="_blank"> <?php } ?> <img src="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/images/digg.png" alt="Digg this story" /> </a> <?php if(is_home()) {?> <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>&title=<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" target="_blank"> <?php } else { ?> <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=<?php the_permalink() ?>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>" target="_blank"> <?php } ?> <img src="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/images/delicious.png" alt="Add to del.icio.us" /> </a> <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?feed=rss2"><img src="http://bavotasan.com/images/subscribe.png" alt="Subscribe to <?php bloginfo('name'); ?>'s RSS Feed" /></a>
You can copy the images from my header and then change the bavotasan.com/images folder to point to your own.
