Social Share element uses placeholder text when URL option set to "campaign's" #74

Closed GVSupport closed 7 years ago

GVSupport commented 7 years ago

One of our customers noticed that when they insert a 'Social Share' element to a design and set the URL to "campaign's", the social links are using the placeholders "##textToShare##" and "##linkToShare##" (the full links are below).

I assume there is some configuration needed on our end in order to set these placeholders to something meaningful for the campaign. Do you have a working example of how to configure this?

Also, is there a way we can disable this option so users can only see the "custom" option?

Creates an email to ##emailToSend##, subject ##textToShare## and content ##textToShare##: ##linkToShare##

Basically, what you would need to do here is a string replace, in which you switch ##textToShare## and ##linkToShare## to something meaningful. It may also help to take a look at our examples on implementing similar elements, like Custom Strings. Disabling the default behavior would require developing a custom implementation of this toolbox. In case you require this functionality, I would suggest to contact our main email address. Is there anything else I can help you with?
