I’m looking for ways to make it easier for the readers to share parts of content (e.g., quotes or 1-2 sentences) from a blog post on social media platforms like Twitter etc – something like “Click to Tweet”.
Can anyone suggest how can I do this?
Maybe you can add a custom functionality where a “Tweet” option appears when users right-click on selected text in your blog post.
Hi @Raki I have not been able to find a simple code that will allow me to insert a Click to Tweet functionality that will also copy the quote, twitter account, and url of the blog post.
Oh, I am merely outlining the concept of such a function, it will require additional development effort.
I have a snippet that takes a quote and puts it in a blockquote, then puts a link below that says “Click to tweet.”
<p style="font-size: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 20px; padding-left: 15px; border-left: 4px solid #1423DD;"><b><i>Politics ain't bean bag.</i></b></p>
<p align="right" style="font-size: 16px;"><i>– <a href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforwardky.com%2Ftest%2F&via=ForwardKY&text=This%20is%20some%20text%20I%20want%20to%20share.&hashtags=hashtag">Click to tweet</a></i></p>
