Add this button share the category not the item was created by stavroch

I use the default addthis share tool that k2 provide and when I share one item to facebook, it doesn't share the item but the category.

The shared link is xxx.com/category and not the xxx.com/category/item

How can I fix this?

Hello Stavros,

This is a bug from the share this tool. I dont think you add parameters to it, if I am not mistaken it only has some appearance settings.

If you are trying to adjust the social buttons just add <?php echo $item->link; ?> to it's data-href attribute.

Regards.

I dont think you can edit this code, as I told you, you can only change the code for the facebook like button, the +1 button and the tweet this button.

Btw. are you using the latest version of K2?

This is the code of facebook

<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemFacebookButton',1)): ?>
		<!-- Facebook Button -->
		<div class="itemFacebookButton">
			<div id="fb-root"></div>
			<script type="text/javascript">
				(function(d, s, id) {
				  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
				  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
				  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
				  js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
				  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
				}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));
			</script>
			<div class="fb-like" data-send="false" data-width="300" data-show-faces="true"></div>
		</div>
		<?php endif; ?>

I can't see any href tag.

Where I have to put the <?php echo $item->link; ?> as you told me?

<div class="fb-like" data-href=" insert code here... "

With some googling you will figure out how to parameter your twitter and +1 button as well

			<div class="fb-like data-href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>"  data-send="false" data-width="300" data-show-faces="true"></div>
		</div>
		<?php endif; ?>

If this didn't work you might have a problem with your og:titles,

Try one of the following

Disabling any SEO plugin you might have and see if that fixes the problem
Check your URL with Facebook Debugger
If you are using a template ask the template developer if it's framework is trying to manually OG titles

The problem was tested without installing any seo plugin.
On the Facebok Debugger I didn't get any error.
I paste the url to facebook page and the item was imported to my wall, with the right url.

Also I have already ask the joomlart if they know about this issue.

I test the site without the template and sh404 and again the addthis share the category and not the item.

How can I test it?

I have disable the plug ins that item has, but again the addthis sharing only the category and not the item.
