the (very powerful) Share button in the Show Me forums

When I choose Pinterest as a social media sharing platform from the Share button within the Show Me forums,
it pulls up every product posted in a particular thread (as opposed to the product(s) inside a specific post).

Unfortunately, each product/design can only be selected and pinned one at a time.
It would be nice if several products could be selected and batch pinned.

The Sharing button also offers Creators’ avatars as sharing choices. Can we have this filtered out automatically?

Thank You!

I am looking for this very powerful Pinterest share button and not finding. Are you seeing Pinterest as part of that mile long list of Add This buttons? (I had no idea some of those sites still existed!)

@Windy  , yes it is on the top row of that very long Share list.

(I didn’t know there were that many social media platforms, period!) 

@WHS_Designs  

Mine looks like this and does not include Pinterest, so I am confused. Even with the use of the search field up top, I don’t get a result when I search for Pinterest.

@Windy  

Click on the + More … (181) link
(not the Add This link) 

Or, just click on the Share button really quickly.

Both actions will bring up the Share window overlay (with the Pinterest icon under TOP SERVICES).

ETA: I see that it is now possible to batch pin up to 20 links to Pinterest.

ignore this…still looking…

@Windy : you could also hover the mouse over the thumbnail of a product.
If the red Pinterest Save icon shows up in the left corner, click to save to your Pinterest page and board.

However, with this method, you can only pin a single product;
The Share button method is the more powerful way to batch pin a number of products at the same time.

@WHS_Designs   I used to have a Pinterest hover button like that, before I removed the Pinterest extension from my desktop. I decided using that pin utility was not effective for my purposes, even thought it was darn handy. I am not seeing any way to get to the black box you pictured above, and am wondering if that’s not native to the forums, but is related to an extension you may have added to your system.

@Windy  hmmm … if you click quickly on the Share button above, that should bring you to:

(excuse the black boxes – I’m working in Dark Mode, which reverses all the whites).

I’m a bit surprised that there is a share option on here. :woman_shrugging:t2: Not so much the Show Me area but other areas. 

@WHS_Designs  I was on iPad last night.

Now I am on desktop. Turns out this is another in a long long line of ways where the Zazzle experience on iPad (not using an app, mind you, just logging in through chrome) is ENTIRELY different from the Zazzle experience on the Desktop, where I also use Chrome, by the way.

There is no way for me to get to that black panel on iPad, but on desktop it’s the only thing I see when I click the share button.

@Windy  your last comment prompted me to look on my Android phone to see if the share button appears there, as it does on my laptop, which runs on Microsoft Edge (it does appear on both devices).

I’m going to check later on an Android OS tablet to see if it also shows up. 

Thanks for your feedback!

ETA: confirmed – Android OS tablets do show the Pinterest icon in the Show Me button!

@PAZP  me, too. I think it’s the default setting until the mods deem it to be otherwise.

ETA: Just noticed that the Share button in the non-Show Me Forums only appears on the first post.
