Single URL along with Get paramater for social buttons

Greetings,

hope every one is fine on this community..

I am facing a problem, that's why i am here for some help.

i need to implement Facebook, tweet and G+ button my on my app (windows software)

but i can't figure out a way.. because web version have many settings like Java script, DIV etc etc. But i need a single url format so, that i can call from my app.

example: i have place a fb like image on my app and when user click on it. it will use following windows API call to open that link/like in user default browser

Code:

---

ShellExecute hWnd, "open", "http://www.facebook.com/like?herf=myURL", vbNullString, vbNullString, 1

---

hope that make sense

i need for all above 3 button (fb like/tweet/G+)

any help would be highly appreciated..

thanks in advanced

best regards

Usually Facebook / Twitter and Google Circles supply the code for the Like buttons and share buttons on their sites :

https://developers.facebook.com/docs.../plugins/like/

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/share/

https://developers.google.com/+/web/badge/

https://dev.twitter.com/docs/tweet-button

any one? any help please?

It seems as if I am invisible, or my posts are... The links I gave shows the code that you should implement ( whether from the web, or your desktop app - although a bit more difficult ) :confused:

OK, well, I see your fear, but you are makin use of the ShellExecute API, so all you need to supply is the link ( that gets generated by FB, Twitter, or G+ ) on those pages I have linked you to in post #2.

This seems to work fine for me :

Code:

---

Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
'facebook link
ShellExecute hwnd, "open", _
"http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vbforums.com&width=450&height=80&colorscheme=light&layout=standard&action=like&show_faces=true&send=true", _
vbNullString, vbNullString, 1
End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
'twitter
ShellExecute hwnd, "open", _
"https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fabout%2Fresources%2Fbuttons&text=Twitter%20%2F%20Twitter%20buttons&tw_p=tweetbutton&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vbforums.com", _
vbNullString, vbNullString, 1

End Sub

Private Sub Command3_Click()
'google
End Sub

Private Sub Command4_Click()
'facebook share
ShellExecute hwnd, "open", _
"https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vbforums.com", _
vbNullString, vbNullString, 1
End Sub

You should obviously just change the url from VBForums to your URL.

I hope this helps!
