• Hello,

    at first I want to thank you for this great and simple to use Plugin, I like it very much. I added the plugin to our website (yoochoose.com) and it works fine on any page except the “Home” page. When I do a quickshare of the homepage it uses the content of one of the Slides to share on FB, Twitter etc.. In our case the Shop-Connectors, but it should share the “Home” page itself. Do you have any advice how to fix that ?

    Thanks in advance,
    MST

    Thanks!

    I can’t access your site, can you double-check the url? I think I need to see exactly what your scenario is to explain the best solution, but this sounds like it might be a case where you need to use the custom output function that lets you specify exactly what to share, because QuickShare is retrieving sharing information from the first post on the page, which happens to be in the slider. Is your site set to show “latest posts” or a static page as the home? Your theme could also be adding/modifying the queries on the homepage for the slider, so that won’t necessarily lead to an obvious solution, but it’s a start.

    Hi Nick,

    thanks for the answer. The URL is https://www.yoochoose.com – it should be accessible. Please let me know if you were not able to visit the website.

    Thanks in advance,
    Martin

    btw. The Home-Page is static …

    Oh, the www is mandatory… you might want to change that.

    Ok, so you’re using the shortcode in a text widget. I’m guessing it works on most pages because it’s pulling the sharing info from the first query on the page — the page content. But on the homepage, the slider is the first query, so it’s getting the first post object from that.

    I think your best option might be to just hide it from the homepage, because getting it working as a widget on the homepage without messing up the other pages will be pretty messy.

    You could do that with the following custom css (in the field on the plugin’s settings page):

    .home .quickshare-container {
    display: none;
    }
