If you place a block on your site, visitors will be able to quickly post links to the pages of the site they like on their social networks. Supports custom output layouts. Work both with Joomla 3 and joomla 4. ![WT Ya.share2 - social share Joomla plugin](https://web-tolk.ru/images/swjprojects/projects/49/en-GB/icon.jpg) ## Description This plugin allows you to share links to Joomla materials on social networks. Being in a category blog, the plugin does not send the current link on which the user (blog) is located, but a link to an article that the visitor wants to share. In 2025, Yandex stopped further development and support of its js script. This plugin is still working with an emphasis on the word "still". ## List of social networks and messengers supported by the Joomla plugin - Yandex.Messenger - VKontakte (VK.com) - Facebook - Odnoklassniki (OK.com) - Telegram - Twitter - Viber - WhatsApp - Moi mir (mail.ru) - Pinterest - Skype - Evernote - LinkedIn - LiveJournal - Blogger - Delicious - Digg - Reddit - Pocket - QZone - Renren - Sina Weibo - Surfingbird - Tencent Weibo ## Features The plugin uses the settings specified in [Yandex documentation for the "Share" block](https://yandex.ru/dev/share /). The plugin supports custom layouts, so you can create your own layout in case you need to adjust the positioning of the output in your layout. A video review of the plugin from Fedor Vasiliev. ### Layout features in some Joomla templates In some templates, the drop-down list with social network icons may not be displayed immediately due to the layout features of a particular template. For example, Joomla blogger Fedor Vasiliev discovered such a problem in the standard Joomla 4 and Joomla 5 template - Cassiopeia. Check out the screenshots of the blog layout of the Joomla 5 Cassiopeia template category. ![Joomla 5 cassopeia screenshot code](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/development/joomla/plugins/wt_ya_share2/cassopeia-1.webp)Screenshot of the Joomla 5 Cassiopeia template code In this screenshot, you can see that the block with links is in the page code, but we do not see it. ![Screenshot of the blog category code of the cassopeia Joomla 5 template](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/development/joomla/plugins/wt_ya_share2/cassopeia-2.webp)Screenshot of the blog category code of the Cassopeia Joomla 5 template And this screenshot shows the reason: the parent block - `div` with the class `com-content-category-blog__item blog-item` - has been assigned the `overflow:hidden` property. If you redefine it in the `user.css` template, the problem will disappear. ## Joomla **Extension type:** Plugin **Folder:** Content **Joomla version:** 4.0, 3.10, 4.3.4, 5.0 ## Gallery ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/49/en-GB/gallery/VAd3MPol9Ua.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/49/en-GB/gallery/4AMfJCXsjF2.jpg) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/49/en-GB/gallery/Z6Vu3IFZNrf.jpg) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/49/en-GB/gallery/ZCjFDskN51J.jpg) ## What's new 2024-05-17 16:34:49 Addition ### Joomla 5 The plugin has been rewritten according to the architecture of Joomla 5.
