Twitter widget

Has anyone tried to add a Twitter widget to their Dolphin site? If so, where did you place the code?

-

Thanks in advance.

Never mind, I just added an ADD THIS tag to the template header and footer.

Would you care to share, How and where and what you placed for others to see.

I placed it in the templates/base/_header.html and _footer.html inside the <body> tags so that the ADD THIS code appears on every page.

I added the center code. You sign up for the account at ADDTHIS.com and it tracks what pages and where they are bookmarking them.

<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
<p>
<center>
<script type="text/javascript">var addthis_pub="yourusername";</script>
<a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=20" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '[URL]', '[TITLE]')" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><img src="http://s7.addthis.com/static/btn/lg-share-en.gif" width="125" height="16" alt="Bookmark and Share" style="border:0"/></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/200/addthis_widget.js"></script>
</center>
</p>
<!-- AddThis Button END -->

Is there a reason your choosing to place this in the _header.html file after the <body> tage and inside the _footer.html file before the </body> tag?  This seems to be redundant and requiring the browser to call the same exact item twice without a reason.  It would seem wiser to place it in one or the other, which will cause it to load on all pages and you will get your data without problem. 

 

Just looking into why your want your server to keep calling the same item over and over on each page.

It is located at the very top and the very bottom....on every page of the template. So no matter where the user goes, they can bookmark that particular page. I have other stats available, but thought I would try this and see what happens.

-

Also, I place it at the top AND the bottom, because some of the users MAY miss the bookmark tool.

-

Like I said, just trying this out for now.

Thanks for the comment.
