Anyone have an example of this?   I am just trying to add the AS Profile Picture to a template (using the Blog Template) in Active Forums.

Thanks.

You may need to change the PortalId, width and height parameters to fit your needs.

Thanks also I am trying to add a twitter "Count" widget. to the blog template....  It is asking for the URL to be created dynamically.   How would I accomplish this?

The code I have is this....

Using AF what should I enter for the URL and TITLE so that it will pick it up dynamically?



Stupid side question Ben.... in editing/creating a post. there is the "Design", "HTML" and "Preview" View - how do you 'enable' the "Preview" View.

I am using the Telerik HTML editor like AF uses.

THANKS!

The code I added was not picked up... Try this (I removed some formatting) div style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 4px;" iframe allowtransparency="true"frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets/tweet_button.html?url={Permalink}&via=bob&text={Title}&count=vertical" width="55"height="63" /iframe div I am looking for URL and TEXT Parameters?

This is working perfectly in the TopicSView, but not in the TopicView.... Is there anything special needed for the TopicView mode?

Try this for the TopicView template:


As for the Twitter Widget.... Assuming that the button is referring to a specific post, text=[SUBJECT] would probably work.

The URL is a little more tricky. Unfortunately, the [SUBJECTLINK] and [TOPICURL] tokens do not render in the TopicView template.

You may need to manually form part of the url, but it SHOULD work like this:


You may need to URL encode it, since its a url inside a url, which would look like this:


Unless you are using AF vanity URLs... in which case the widget would show a less than accurate amount of tweets, since no one would be linking a URL formed this way (unless they click this button).

Thanks Ben! That worked for the TopicView! At the point that 5.6.1 is out and the 404 bug that Will mentions is fixed, I will start using the Vanity URLs. Hopefully, then I will be able to place the tweet box in there.

Also, should have mentioned, that if you have AF avatars enabled, and the AF profile set to your AS Profile, you can just use this token to display the AS profile picture in the TopicView:
