Hi Aakash,

Thanks for the great plugin and support!

I’m using WP Socializer (and very satisfied) on my site Zombie War and have so far been able to make little changes to suit my needs. However, I figured you could answer this question best:

The Tweet This button (I’m showing in posts at the bottom) is generating the post ID in the link. Example: http://zombiehustle.com?p=279

Though this is the correct link ID for the page, it is terrible for SEO. I want it to generate the SEO link: http://zombiehustle.com/2012/01/last-army-base-taken-in-zombie-war/

I found the code in the plug in (I searched for a control for this in WP Socializer but couldn’t find one.) I discovered that this page ID is hard-coded in the file: wp-socializer/includes/wpsr-retweet.php

Code:

$purl = home_url() . ‘/?p=’ . $pid;

I have noticed that the other Tweeting button does generate the SEO link so I’ll see if I can duplicate it from there but I haven’t found this code yet. Anyway thanks for any help!

Aha! I found it. I was looking in the wrong file.

The correct file is: wp-socializer/wp-socializer.php

It was an easy fix. See the following code:

Search for:

Code:

‘url’ => ‘http://twitter.com/home?status={title}%20-%20{s-url}%20{twitter-username}’,

Remove “s-“

Code:

‘url’ => ‘http://twitter.com/home?status={title}%20-%20{url}%20{twitter-username}’,

Again, thanks for the great plugin!

PS. If you check out my site, you might notice that I added “no-follow” to most of the social links. This reduces the loss of SEO and I suggest adding to any new releases 🙂
