[Bug 1534388] Re: New Feature: "Share to social media" buttons
I would like to second this request. Specifically, I'd like to be able
to get a 'secret' link for individual journal entries that I could
share/submit to a moodle assignment (for example).

Title:
New Feature: "Share to social media" buttons
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Many blog, journal, and publishing platforms include "share to social
media" buttons. Often this takes the form of a series of icons
representing different social networks, with a number underneath each
one indicating how many times it has been shared to each (see the
attached screenshot for an example from the Wired website).
We occasionally get requests for similar functionality in Mahara, and
it would make sense for certain use-cases, where Mahara is meant to be
used by adults publishing things for public consumption.
This may be something best-served by a third-party blocktype plugin,
which could be added to a page in order to put the share buttons on
it. Or, in order to achieve better layout, a module plugin with some
new hooks in the core code.
Another thing to consider is adding "share" buttons to individual
artefact pages, particularly journal entries. This may require that we
first implement individual artefact permissions.
