    Hi,

    Thank you for the awesome plugin ??

    Is there a way to create a pre-written email?

    I’m already using the shortcode with a Url attribute to specify a specific url to be shared, so good there.

    But when the person clicks the “Email” icon button, can I specify:
    1. a specific subject line
    2. Text before the url, such as “Hi, I just signed up for this email newsletter, and I think you should too: url.”

    Thanks a lot ??

    Hi there,

    Thanks for the appreciation ??
    Sorry, there’s not any option in the plugin for this. But you can customize the code of wp-content/plugins/sassy-social-share/includes/class-sassy-social-share-sharing-networks.php for Email share icon to pick up the desired text.
    Will include this feature in upcoming releases.

    Thank you for the quick response ??

    1. Do you expect to include this feature in the NEAR future or sometime in the future, not sure when?

    2. If I make edits directly to your plugin file as suggested, the next time you update the plugin, it will all get overwritten, no? I use my child theme a lot, but no clue how do that for a plugin???

    3. I have the email share icon on different pages, and I would want the email pre-filled differently per page. How would I specify those per page directions inside your array structure???

    Thanks again!

    For the reasons mentioned in points 2 and 3, you should wait till this feature gets included in the plugin. Can’t be sure about the timeline though.

    Thank you!

    I can use the same subject line and url for all pages.

    Can I fix the code per your suggestion above to pre-fill the body of the email differently based on whether it’s a Standard Interface or Floating Interface, does that make it doable vs. not possible per page?

    So Standard Interface: “Hi, I just signed up for this email newsletter, and I think you should too: url.”

    Floating Interface: “Hey, this is cool: url.”

    Otherwise, I may just have to come up with something less meaningful for the email body, but neutral for all pages.

    If I do decide to customize the code of the plugin page as suggested, it just means that every time I update your plugin, I have to go back and re-apply that same code change, right? May be doable…

    The changes you will make in the code will affect both Standard and Floating share bar.
    Every time you update the plugin, you have to re-do the changes.

    You’re welcome.

    Hello!
    How do I have it auto fill in an email address where the emails should go to? We are a cool solar company and want the email to go to “[email protected]”

    Thanks!

    Hi @sotpwpaccount
    Email share icon is there so that your website visitors can share your webpages over their network. Why you want to pre-fill email address of your company? Why you want your website visitors to send the links of your webpages to you?
    Correct me if I get it wrong.
