sc.social.bookmarks 0.6

Add social bookmarking and sharing capabilities to a Plone Site

sc.social.bookmarks

Overview

This product adds a Bookmark & Share action to a Plone 3 site.

It allows an anonymous or registered user to bookmark or share a content from a Plone site to a service like Delicious, Digg, Reddit or Twitter (62 providers already included).

Requirements

• Plone 3.1.x (http://plone.org/products/plone)

• Plone 3.2.x (http://plone.org/products/plone)

Installation

To enable this product,on a buildout based installation:

1. Edit your buildout.cfg and add sc.social.bookmarks to the list of eggs to install

   [buildout]
   ...
   eggs =
       sc.social.bookmarks

2. Tell the plone.recipe.zope2instance recipe to install a ZCML slug:

   [instance]
   ...
   zcml =
       ...
       sc.social.bookmarks

If another package depends on the sc.social.bookmarks egg or includes its zcml directly you do not need to specify anything in the buildout configuration: buildout will detect this automatically.

After updating the configuration you need to run the ‘’bin/buildout’’, which will take care of updating your system.

Go to the ‘Site Setup’ page in the Plone interface and click on the ‘Add/Remove Products’ link.

Choose the product (check its checkbox) and click the ‘Install’ button.

Uninstall – This can be done from the same management screen, but only if you installed it from the quick installer.

Note: You may have to empty your browser cache and save your resource registries in order to see the effects of the product installation.
