Add Skype share button to Jetpack
paunikar opened this issue · 4 comments
Hello, I am following up on a twitter request by one of your users. We recently launched the Skype Share button. The configuration page is available here: https://www.skype.com/en/create-share-buttons/
We offer a JS button with SDK. We also offer a raw URL option. The URL is:
https://web.skype.com/share?url=<urlencoded_url_to_share>&lang=en-US&flow_id=&source=JetPack
Expected usage, with ideal window size:
function shareUsingSkypeRawLink() {
window.open('https://web.skype.com/share?url=<urlencoded_url_to_share>&lang=en-US&flow_id=&source=JetPack’, ‘_blank', 'toolbar=no, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes, width=305, height=665');
return false;
}
<a href=‘javascript:void(0)' onclick="shareUsingSkypeRawLink()"> Share using link
Asset available here:
Skype logo file is available here: https://swx.cdn.skype.com/skypewebsdk/shareButton/v/latest/assets/images/s_logo.svg
We also have a WP plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/skype-share-button/
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thanks,

@jeherve any update on this? let me know if you need any additional information to move this forward.
Thanks @jeherve Any approximate timing on that, so we can be ready at our end and monitoring metrics?
It should be released before the end of the month, after we go through a Beta testing phase, and if we find no bugs during testing.
