DESCRIPTION
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
Follow adds sitewide and per user links that link to various social networking
|
|
sites. The links reside in two blocks. The Follow Site block lists all the
|
|
links for the site itself, and by default is visible on all pages. The Follow
|
|
User block lists all the follow links for the user and is visible only on user
|
|
profile pages. There is a setting in the Follow Site block to have it not
|
|
display on user profile pages.
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
Enable the module at admin/build/modules, then go to user/admin/permissions to
|
|
set which roles are allowed to edit the sitewide follow links, edit own follow
|
|
links, edit all user follow links, or administer follow. Go to
|
|
admin/build/blocks to enable the blocks. User follow links can be edited at
|
|
user/%/follow, whereas sitewide follow links are at admin/build/follow
|
|
|
|
TWEAKAGE
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
Often you'll want to tweak the way the Follow links are displayed. The display
|
|
of the icons and text is all controlled with CSS, so overriding in your own
|
|
custom theme is simple. Here are a few examples:
|
|
|
|
To remove the text and only display icons:
|
|
|
|
a.follow-link {
|
|
width: 24px;
|
|
height: 25px;
|
|
text-indent: -9999px;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
To remove all text and have icons sit next to each other:
|
|
|
|
a.follow-link {
|
|
width: 24px;
|
|
height: 25px;
|
|
text-indent: -9999px;
|
|
float: left;
|
|
margin: 0 8px 8px 0;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
RECOMMENDED ADD ON
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
It is recommended to enable a module such as external [1] that will pop open
|
|
the follow links in a new tab or window; target="_blank" is not used since it
|
|
does not validate.
