SocialMediaPack

Bring social media links and shared to SilverStripe

What it do:

• Add default shared image to SiteConfig as $SiteConfig.Image
• Add shared image to page as $Image

How it works:

• The page containing $Image in MetaData is taken instead of $SiteConfig.Image when configured.
• The $SiteConfig.Image will be taken if $image isnt added inside pages.
• Add automatically in head of your pages additionnals MetaData to override random shares images

Social media usage:

• And include SocialMediaShares into page templates to display social media sharing capabilities
• Select one of the theme styles or choose your own design

Good for:

• News shared image
• Portfolio shared image
• Blog shared image

Informations for your page templates:

• If you use a different image field name (ex.: NewsImage), you can duplicate it like:

  $this->ImageID = $this->NewsImageID;

• Remember to hide $Image when doing this operation:

  $fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Main.Metadata', new HiddenField("Image","Image"));

TODO:

• Translation to other language
• Include SocialMediaLinks to display social media link into a templates (not ready at this time)
