Easily add Twitter's official Tweet Button to your EE templates.

Tweet Button is an ExpressionEngine plugin that allows you to easily add Twitter’s official Tweet Button to your EE templates. Brought to you by Focus Lab, LLC

For questions regarding Twitter’s Tweet Button check out their Tweet Button FAQ.

Compatibility

This plugin works with both ExpressionEngine 1.x and 2.x.

Plugin Usage

The Tweet Button plugin uses all of Twitter’s possible parameters as of Aug 14, 2010. The easiest way to use the button is to simply add the standard tag to your template.

{exp:tweet_button}

Using the tag without any parameters will output the following HTML:

<a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button">Tweet</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>

Here is a list of the available parameters for the plugin:

{exp:tweet_button
    class=""
    count=""
    via=""
    related=""
    related_description=""
    tweet_text=""
    url=""
    lang=""
    exclude_js=""
    wrap_a=""
    anchor_text=""
}

Please visit the GitHub repository for the full readme docs. Soon we will have a software section on focuslabllc.com where our documentation will then reside.
