#BSD SocialEEsta v1.5

##All Social. No Fuss.

SocialEEsta adds social buttons to your ExpressionEngine pages with no fuss.

HTML5 Social Buttons By Default

SocialEEsta defaults to the HTML5 versions of these buttons; use the {exp:socialeesta:scripts} tag to add the Javascript required for each of these buttons to work.

##SocialEEsta Supports…

  • Twitter Tweet: {exp:socialeesta:tweet}
  • Twitter Follow: {exp:socialeesta:follow}
  • Facebook Like: {exp:socialeesta:like}
  • Google +1 / Google+ Share: {exp:socialeesta:plusone}
  • LinkedIn Share: {exp:socialeesta:linkedin}

###Example tag:

{exp:socialeesta:scripts scripts="facebook|twitter" fb_app_id="YOUR FACEBOOK APP ID" fb_channel_url="YOUR FACEBOOK CHANNEL URL"}
