Will check it out when I get home from work.
I Was wondering if other people were having trouble with the repo like I did , did you find any problems in my log?.
Is there a place where you can check the download count ?.

here is an image from reptileforums copied with share social then posted via forum browser using remote control


here is a video also






Thats brilliant ruuk well done!!

Could you update the help section with this thanks
could share social be pulled when installing from fresh just like web viewer

Looks like connection errors. You were having them with Forum Browser, and at the same time in the background, XBMC was getting errors trying to refresh the repo data as well as errors with the anilkuj repo.

Since I host my repo from Google Project hosting there is no way to monitor (that I know of) download count. I can put files up for download in the downloads section and view the count there, but I can't do it with my normal work flow (read: more work for ruuk)

Yeah, I can update the help.
I'm hesitant to make ShareSocial a requirement for installing Forum Browser. Not everyone necessarily wants to have other addons installed without being asked. And on devices like the atv2, space considerations start into come into play. Of course, this is a good argument for making the clipboard stuff a standalone module addon, which is what I was trying to avoid, but which I'll probably end up doing in the end. Argh

Those pesky connection errors, that's UK internet for you
No problems with the share social/FB combo, it's easy to add the share social addon, as long as people know to install that aswell, to get the paste facility
I was wondering if dj_gerbel has recieved the update, maybe you could pm him so you know it's getting out there

hasselhof: Have you tried torrentday again yet? I think it should work for you now that the site is no longer having issues.

Hi ruuk,

maybe it's a coincidence but my menu's seem a little boggled inside xbmc since I updated share social
take a look at the screenshot.
what your seeing is that I have pressed the context menu while resting on forum browser inside the addons folder
and the only viewable menu item is addon settings
the two lower black empty boxes when you cursor down on them say "go to root" & remove from favs.
IE the menu item that is focused is the menu item that you can read, the other go black if you get what I mean.
I will check out confluence to see if that's the same for me....

There's a good chance that it is ShareSocial. Try undoing the context menu mod from the ShareSocial addon settings and see if it fixes it.

I just tried in Transparency and it is ShareSocial. Go ahead and remove the mod as I said. It will only disable sharing from XBMC, and won't affect the clipboard or anything else. I'll fix the generic mod and make one just for Transparency while I'm at it.
What the mod does is add a 'Share' button to the right of the menu for shareable media. I see that in Transparency that the context menu is placed over the item clicked, which causes the button to go off the right hand side of the screen.
