Function only show on posts

    Hi all,

    not sure if this is the right place on the forum to ask this but let’s try.
    I have a function that shows a linkedin share button on my website. It looks like this:

    function wpb_linkedin_share_after($content) { 
$sharecode .= '<script src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js" type="text/javascript"> lang: en_US</script>
<script type="IN/Share" data-counter="top"></script>'; 
$newcontent = $content . $sharecode; 
return $newcontent; 
} 
add_filter('the_content', 'wpb_linkedin_share_after');

    Now i would like this only to show up on “post” types. I read about the part where you have to specify what kind of type of page it is but can’t figure it out.

    Thanks for your help!

  • maybe you should try doing a conditional statement. 

    if(get_post_type() == 'post') {

sharecode .= '<script src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js" type="text/javascript"> lang: en_US</script>
<script type="IN/Share" data-counter="top"></script>'; 
$newcontent = $content . $sharecode; 
return $newcontent;
} else{
return $content;
}

    You would have to add the post types you want to check for. I’m not sure if it what you are looking for.

    I would like to have it on all post pages. But in your code i do not see where i have to specify this.

    your original code should put it on each post. I thought you wanted it only on specific post types. Are you wanting it on every post or only once per page. I’m a little confused when you say post page.

    I am sorry if i am not completely clear with my question.
    In wordpress i have two places i make pages for my website:
    1: Pages
    2: Posts

    With my original code, the function showed on every page of my website. But i would like it to only show on the post type pages. Inside the posts, i have two categories if that is needed but i want the function to show on both categories.

    You just want it to post on the homepage where your blog post are being displayed. 

    if(is_home() ){

sharecode .= '<script src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js" type="text/javascript"> lang: en_US</script>
<script type="IN/Share" data-counter="top"></script>'; 
$newcontent = $content . $sharecode; 
return $newcontent;
} else{
return $content;
}
