FAQ
- How do I make a sentence tweetable?
-
Let’s say you have this as your post:
Hello world! This is an exciting blog! I will share stuff with you.You can make a sentence tweetable by adding the [tweetable] shortcode around any sentence you want, like this:
Hello world! [tweetable]This is an exciting blog![/tweetable] I will share stuff with you.
Now, the sentence “This is an exciting blog!” will be a special link. If the reader clicks it, they’ll load a window confirming the tweet (and allowing them to edit it.) If they hover over the link, a Tweet and Buffer button will pop up over it.
- Can I add #hashtags to my tweets?
-
Yes, like this:
[tweetable hashtags=”#foo #bar”]This text is tweetable![/tweetable]Now the tweet will be “This text is tweetable! #foo #bar”
- Can I edit the style of the tweetable text?
-
Yes, you need to create a css override for the style like this:
.tweetable a { //Your new style for tweetable links }
