Question

I want to post text(on twitter, fb, mail) like following using share kit:

Hi,

This is share text

Click here to do something <=== this should be a link

Click here to another something <=== this should be a link

Cheers

I have following code:

-(IBAction)shareOnTwitter:(id)sender
{
    [SHK setRootViewController:self];
    SHKItem *item;
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://dosomething.com"];
    item = [SHKItem URL:url title:@"HI,\n\nThis is share text\n\nCheers"];
    [SHKTwitter shareItem:item];

}

- (IBAction)shareOnFacebook:(id)sender
{
    SHKItem *item;
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://dosomething.com"];
    item = [SHKItem URL:url title:@"HI,\n\nThis is share text\n\nCheers"];
    [SHKFacebook shareItem:item];

}

- (IBAction)shareWithMail:(id)sender
{
    SHKItem *item;
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://dosomething.com"];
    item = [SHKItem URL:url title:@"HI,\n\nThis is share text\n\nCheers"];
    [SHKMail shareItem:item];

}

But the url is appended at the end. How can I add multiple links with my text and bring the links in the middle.

Answer 1

You will have to change the ShareKit classes that handle these services:

• SHKFacebook.m: the “-(BOOL)send” method.
• SHKTwitter.m: the “-(void)showTwitterForm” method.
• SHKMail.m: the “-(BOOL)sendMail” method.

It’s easy for Twitter and Mail, you only have to create a NSString with the text of the message, like you want. With Facebook you have to change the attachment, you can see the facebook API here for more options.
