Atixnet Social Buttons

Presentation

This module show the common social networks to share your content, using a block.

It is not using any javascript library, nor the social networks trackers libraries to run, nothing...

It is using a template file for the block to display, allowing you to override the output.

Their is plenty of social buttons modules for Drupal, but most of them use Social Networks Javascript and trackers to display buttons (and useless counter for my purpose).

This module was design to respect visitors private live and avoid any third party trackers on your site pages.

The only module similar with this one is Ridiculously Responsive Social Share Buttons, witch is not able (yet) to use block template (no override), and is using a jQuery plugin and library to display the buttons...

I use those ressources :
• https://www.mojotech.com/social-builder
• https://github.com/Ohax/Boutons-sociaux-sans-tracking (French)

This module use the SVG images of the social networks that where available with Ridiculously Responsive Social Share Buttons. But you can use your own images or classes to display them (or not).

• Title, define witch title to use [select] :
