Dib sharing button
How to insert and configure the Dibloc sharing button!
The Dib button allows you to instantly share on Dibloc, any web page on which it is installed.
Clicking on the Dib button automatically opens a pop-up window to publish your Dib: it will already be complete with a title, text and any photo on the page to be shared!
What is the Dib button?
A small widget developed to simplify the sharing of content on Dibloc.
To add it, just add a portion of HTML code (snippet) anywhere on the page you want to share, so the Dib button will appear!

Example code to insert
You can generate the snippet automatically, or customize it by following this complete example and setting the individual parameters.
<a href="https://www.dibloc.com/account/share"
class="dib-btn" data-dib-btype="default">Dib</a>
<script src="https://www.dibloc.com/me/js/dib.js" async></script>
This is an example of the HTML code to copy and paste into the body
of the web page to be shared, and consists of a a
tag with dib-btn
class containing the href
attribute that identifies the link to be shared and additional data-
attributes for additional parameters.
Plus the JavaScript script
code that allows asynchronous linking of the widget to the page and loading the Dib button.
In the event that there are multiple Dib buttons on the page, you need to include the code only once.
How to configure the Dib button
The main parameter to set is the absolute URL (HTTP/HTTPS) of the page to be shared. Simply add it as a url
query parameter in the href
attribute of a
tag.
<a href="https://www.dibloc.com/account/share?url=http://www.example.com"
class="dib-btn" data-dib-btype="default">Dib</a>
Another option is to pass the absolute URL through the data-dib-href
attribute.
<a href="https://www.dibloc.com/account/share"
class="dib-btn" data-dib-btype="default"
data-dib-href="http://www.example.com">Dib</a>
An additional mode is offered by the use of an <link rel="canonical">
element containing the canonical link of the page.
<link rel="canonical"
href="http://www.example.com" />
Finally you can leave the ability to make the widget to read the Open Graph meta tags on the page; the tag with the og:url
property will be checked and eventually used.
<meta property="og:url"
content="http://www.example.com" />
In the absence of a valid link set, the Dibloc widget is able to detect the URL of the page, but it is not recommended for the presence of any unneeded query parameters.
Customize the Dib button
You can use the round format of the button by changing the data-dib-btype
attribute with the round
value instead of default
.
