As requested by forum user prorock, I've produced a module that will add an AddThis.com bookmark button to the bottom of each post that will allow visitors to quickly bookmark any article to one of the many AddThis.com supported bookmark websites. Currently AddThis supports 54 websites and services, some of which are popular Pligg CMS sites.

Installation is as simple as it gets. Upload the addthis folder to your /modules directory and then navigate to the Admin Panel > Modules and activate the AddThis module. You should see the AddThis module appear at the bottom of each story.

thanks, just installed it on Publish Articles - Article Directory - Your Source for quality articles and works just fine. are there some changes I could make so that it won't show on the summary, but only on the detailed story? also, for those that want to benefit from addthis' analytics for clicks on the button, you can change in the file modules\addthis\templates\addthis_index.tpl from pub=pligg to pub=your_addthis_id; this way the statistics will be linked to your account.

I've installed it and moding it a bit.
For users in other languages,
1)go to your addthis.com account and find out your language configuration for your button... copy that code, specifically the your user account line and the language button image source "src=".
2) replace the corresponding lines in the "addthis_index.tpl" file under the addthis/templates folder.

I'm just trying it out, but it should work.

Does anyone has implemented a url like bit.ly shortened?

function Bit_ly($URL){
$Usuario = 'mi_usuario';
$API = 'mi_api_key';

$Valor = file_get_contents('http://api.bit.ly/shorten?version=2.0.1&format=xml&longUrl='.urlenco de($URL).'&login='.$Usuario.'&apiKey='.$API);
$Valor = simplexml_load_string($Valor);

return 'http://bit.ly/'.$Valor -> results -> nodeKeyVal -> hash;
}
I have this function but I can't integrate whith this module. Can you help me?
Thanks.

Many of my story titles contain quotes ( ' ). This leads to problems in the html of the module. This can, however, be fixed by escaping quotes in the template file \addthis\templates\addthis_index.tpl. Originally this file's content is:

{config_load file=addthis_lang_conf}

{* Use the .addthis class in your CSS stylesheet to style the module, that way updates won't effect the style. *}

<div style="display:inline;margin:-2px 5px 0 0;float:right;" class="addthis">
<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
<a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&pub=pligg" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '{$my_base_url}{$story_url}', '{$title_short}')" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><img src="http://s7.addthis.com/static/btn/lg-bookmark-en.gif" width="125" height="16" alt="{#Addthis_Bookmark#}" style="border:0"/></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js?pub=pligg"></script>
<!-- AddThis Button END -->
</div>

{config_load file=addthis_pligg_lang_conf}

Change this to:

{config_load file=addthis_lang_conf}

{* Use the .addthis class in your CSS stylesheet to style the module, that way updates won't effect the style. *}

<div style="display:inline;margin:-2px 5px 0 0;float:right;" class="addthis">
<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
<a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&pub=pligg" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '{$my_base_url}{$story_url}', &quot;{$title_short}&quot;)" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><img src="http://s7.addthis.com/static/btn/lg-bookmark-en.gif" width="125" height="16" alt="{#Addthis_Bookmark#}" style="border:0"/></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js?pub=pligg"></script>
<!-- AddThis Button END -->
</div>

{config_load file=addthis_pligg_lang_conf}

Since I've got the Flashblock add-in installed in Firefox, I noticed it was blocking a small flash object in the upper-left corner of my page.

The object loads //bin.clearspring.com/at/v/1/button1.6.swf .
Googling this turned up the following:
Warning: AddThis Puts Flash Tracking Objects on Your Website :: Useful Stuff :: JohnHaller.com
AddThis Blog » Blog Archive » The AddThis Flash Cookie… We Need Your Feedback

It's one of those darn Flash cookies. AddThis says it can be disabled (see here: AddThis - Help - AddThis Menu API). Or you can consider switching to AddToAny or ShareThis.
