Diggthis
Posted: Thu 10/12/2006 by ramiroThe diggthis Drupal module adds a Digg button to your content. If the story is not yet submitted to Digg a submit link is displayed otherwise a voting button showing the number of Diggs the story received so far is displayed.
To install the module simply extract the download package in your modules directory and then enable the module in administer - modules.
For configuration options go to administer - settings - diggthis with Drupal 5 and administer - content management - diggthis with Drupal 6.
Features of Version 2
- A block, containing a Digg button, that can be displayed on all pages, except administration pages, which is not dependant on the node type setting.
- A page that displays the top ten stories, that received the most Diggs for the domain entered on the settings page. See for example the top ten Digg stories for Drupal.org.
Take a look at the Drupal documentation on how to install modules.
The digg button is in a div module with the CSS class
diggthis_button. You can customize it in your template CSS file by defining the properties of this class. Did that answer your question?Do you know if the Digg module can arrange a list of items with those with the most Diggs at the top, down to the ones with the least (I presume so via Views).
Also does it support Anonymous users?
With the diggthis Drupal module you can't display such a list, because the number of Diggs is not stored in the Drupal database.
Anonymous users can see the Digg button but they have to be logged in to Digg to vote.
digg_url = 'http://max.duestrade.it/terzaPagina/max/VMGentoo.html'; digg_title = "Installing a Gentoo Linux system in a virtual machine"; digg_bodytext = "I\'ve got a Fujitsu Siemens AMILO laptop. It\'s a \"family\" computer (i.e. a computer used by all the family) and up a virtual machine and installing my favourite Linux distribution: Gentoo (http://www.gentoo.org)"; digg_bgcolor = '#fefcf1'; digg_skin = 'standard';While this way works (I've removed the http link to 'gentoo.org'):digg_url = 'http://max.duestrade.it/terzaPagina/max/VMGentoo.html'; digg_title = "Installing a Gentoo Linux system in a virtual machine"; digg_bodytext = "I\'ve got a Fujitsu Siemens AMILO laptop. It\'s a \"family\" computer (i.e. a computer used by all the family) and up a virtual machine and installing my favourite Linux distribution: Gentoo ()"; digg_bgcolor = '#fefcf1'; digg_skin = 'standard';Any suggestion? (obviously I could get rid of the link, but this means I can't put any http link in pages were I want to have the digg icon) Bye, MaxI am thinking about adding a CCK field for the digg this button, which would give users much more freedom in deciding when and where to display it. Due to time constraints I will not implement any new features into the digg this version for Drupal 5.x. I very much appreciate any help with this to make it available for as many users as possible.
No because the menu system changed.
