  1. DESCRIPTION
  2. ********************************************************************************
  3. Follow adds sitewide and per user links that link to various social networking
  4. sites. The links reside in two blocks. The Follow Site block lists all the
  5. links for the site itself, and by default is visible on all pages. The Follow
  6. User block lists all the follow links for the user and is visible only on user
  7. profile pages. There is a setting in the Follow Site block to have it not
  8. display on user profile pages.
  9. INSTALLATION
  10. ********************************************************************************
  11. Enable the module at admin/build/modules, then go to user/admin/permissions to
  12. set which roles are allowed to edit the sitewide follow links, edit own follow
  13. links, edit all user follow links, or administer follow. Go to
  14. admin/build/blocks to enable the blocks. User follow links can be edited at
  15. user/%/follow, whereas sitewide follow links are at admin/build/follow
  16. TWEAKAGE
  17. ********************************************************************************
  18. Often you'll want to tweak the way the Follow links are displayed. The display
  19. of the icons and text is all controlled with CSS, so overriding in your own
  20. custom theme is simple. Here are a few examples:
  21. To remove the text and only display icons:
  22. a.follow-link {
  23. width: 24px;
  24. height: 25px;
  25. text-indent: -9999px;
  26. }
  27. To remove all text and have icons sit next to each other:
  28. a.follow-link {
  29. width: 24px;
  30. height: 25px;
  31. text-indent: -9999px;
  32. float: left;
  33. margin: 0 8px 8px 0;
  34. }
  35. RECOMMENDED ADD ON
  36. ********************************************************************************
  37. It is recommended to enable a module such as external [1] that will pop open
  38. the follow links in a new tab or window; target="_blank" is not used since it
  39. does not validate.
