Features Overview
Share button on activity entries
Section titled “Share button on activity entries”The plugin adds a “Share” button to every activity entry through the BuddyPress bp_activity_entry_meta action. Clicking the button slides open a row of enabled network icons for that activity. The button is shown only to logged-in users, and only when at least one sharing service is enabled.
Supported networks
Section titled “Supported networks”Each of these networks has a working share link in the plugin and can be turned on or off individually:
| Network | What it shares |
|---|---|
| The activity permalink, through the Facebook sharer. | |
| X (Twitter) | The activity permalink plus the activity title. |
| The activity permalink plus a description. | |
| The activity permalink plus the activity title. | |
| WordPress | The activity permalink through WordPress.com Press This. |
| The activity permalink plus the activity title. | |
| The activity permalink plus text. | |
| The activity permalink through wa.me. | |
| A mailto link with a subject and body built from your site title and the activity link. |
The E-mail and WhatsApp links open directly rather than in a popup window.
Choose and reorder networks
Section titled “Choose and reorder networks”From the General Settings tab you drag networks between an Enable list and a Disable list, and you can reorder the enabled networks by dragging. The order you set is the order the icons appear on the front end.
Popup or new tab
Section titled “Popup or new tab”An “Open as popup window” option controls whether share links open in a centered popup or in a new browser tab. WhatsApp and E-mail always open directly regardless of this setting.
Custom icon colors
Section titled “Custom icon colors”The Icon Color Settings tab gives each network its own color picker. Colors are applied to the icons on the front end. Defaults are set on activation.
Open Graph and Twitter Card meta
Section titled “Open Graph and Twitter Card meta”On a single activity page the plugin outputs Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags (type, url, title, description, image). This helps shared links show a proper preview on the destination network.
For the activity image, the plugin looks for media in this order:
- The first image found in the activity content.
- BuddyBoss / BuddyPress media attached to the activity (
BP_Media). - Youzer or Youzify media attached to the activity.
Change the button label
Section titled “Change the button label”The button text (“Share”) can be changed by developers through a filter. See Hooks, Filters and Options.
What is not included
Section titled “What is not included”- There is no share count, share analytics, or click counter. The plugin does not track how many times an activity was shared.
- The copy to clipboard front-end button is not rendered by the free version’s activity template. See Troubleshooting for details.
