using the excellent CGSocialBlaster module here on a website with the CGTweet and CGBlog module. Everything is setup and working perfectly, CGBlog entries can be shared directly to Twitter with just the click of two buttons. There is a bit of weirdness going on though on the actual Calguys Social Blaster page when sharing an article, it will always look like this:
The source of that section:
Code: Select all
<div class="pageoverflow">
<p class="pagetext"></p>
<p class="pageinput">
<input id="submit" type="submit" name="cgsb_submit" value="Submit"/>
<input type="submit" name="cgsb_cancel" value="Cancel"/>
</p>
</div>
<div id="tabwrap">
<ul id="tablist">
<li><a href="#tab_main">Main</a></li>
<li><a href="#tab_CGTweet">Twitter</a></li>
<li><a href="#tab_help">Help</a></li>
</ul>
<div id="tab_main">
<div class="pageoverflow">
<p class="pagetext"><label for="senders">Destinations:</label></p>

</td>
<td valign="top">Select which social media outlets to send to from those available. <strong>Reminder:</strong> You may need to install more social media modules.<br/>You can CTRL+Click on items to select multiple social media networks.</td>
</tr>

<div id="tab_CGTweet" class="sender_tab">
<div class="information">Twitter messages are a maximum of 140 characters long. <strong>Note:</strong> It has been reported that twitter counts each and every URL as having 20 characters and automatically shortens URLS of 19 characters or more.

<div id="tab_help">

<tr><td valign="top">{$input_data->pictures}</td><td>An array of URLS representing pictures attached to the original item. For social networks that support them, this module provides a dropdown box to select one image to include in the post</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top">{$input_data->links}</td><td>An array of objects representing the various links that are associated with the original item being shared. The array can be accessed with a smarty foreach statement. i.e:<br/>
<pre><code>{foreach $input_data as $link}
{$link->name} = {$link->url}/{$link->caption}/{$link->description}
{/foreach}</pre></code></td></tr>
