Sharing blog posts to social media from backoffice.
Hey there guys,
Is there a package that enables sharing posts to social media from the backoffice itself? I know uShare exists but I have not been able to make it work on Umbraco 7.5 sadly.
If there is not package for it, may I get some insight on how to do it myself?
it works with the Skybrud.Social package that does all the hard OAuth stuff for you, and shows how you can wire up a 'tweet this' menu item to send out a tweet containing a link to the article.
I followed the tutorial and it works really well. I'm sure you could also modify it to make it post on facebook as well - maybe create your own package and share it on Our :)

Hi Daniel
Have a look at this long blog post here:
http://tooorangey.co.uk/posts/heres-where-the-story-ends/
beyond the waffle is some instruction on how to setup tweeting from the backoffice.
With a link to a git repository that contains the code:
https://github.com/marcemarc/tooorangey.TweetThis
it works with the Skybrud.Social package that does all the hard OAuth stuff for you, and shows how you can wire up a 'tweet this' menu item to send out a tweet containing a link to the article.

Marc
Thanks a lot! I will give it a shot :)
