I have done some searching and it seems that Dawn 2.0 removed the social sharing buttons that some other themes had. Is there any way to add this back?
What I am looking for is this:
Right now all my product page shows is the share block.
I have also found this code for the social sharing but I am unsure how to change the code href’s to be dynamic to whatever the current product is.

Note: some code amended for simplicity. HREF changed to MyProduct as I want that to be dynamic, but not sure the code to be used.

Hi @JasonBoyd
This is the code to share the product in each product. The window.location.href will get the URL of the product page with the corresponding product.

@BSS-Commerce Thank you, which file do I put the code into?
Hi @JasonBoyd
Because this code is used to share the product, it should be placed in the main-product.liquid file:

- @BSS-Commerce Thank you. I wasn’t able to figure out where to put it exactly in main-product.liquid. I ended up replacing the code within share-button.liquid instead.
I also had to change the code a bit as the icons were not rendering.
- {%- render 'icon-facebook' -%}
Share
Share on Facebook
- {%- render 'icon-twitter' -%}

- {%- render 'icon-pinterest' -%}

But now I am left with this:
and I am unsure the css needed or code change required to have it look like this:
Not worried about the slight difference in icons, just don’t know how to position them and space them, while also removing the link underlines and the link colouring.
Hi @JasonBoyd
Find the file base.css and add the following code at the end of the file:
.btn--share {
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
margin: 0px 16px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
.btn--share svg.icon {
margin-right: 8px;
}
Please let us know if it works for you by giving us likes or marking it as a solution.
