I am a freelancer and looking for work

My name is Steve Cross and this blog is a collection of some of the interesting things I've found that I felt the need to share. However this blog is also intended to demonstrate my talent as a web designer and developer. If you like what you see and would like a new site, changes to an existing one or for your site to earn more money for you, then head over to my site and check me out.

 
 
 

Add Twitter to WordPress

This is a very simple guide to adding a ‘tweet this!‘ link to your WordPress blog

  1. Open your WordPress blog admin section
  2. Click ‘Appearance…Editor’
  3. Find the element you want to change. I’d suggest the header.php or footer.php
  4. Generate an image for your Twitter button.
  5. Where you want to display your ‘tweet this‘ button, add the following code

<a href=”http://twitter.com/home?status=Look at this! <?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”Tweet this” target=”_blank”><img src=”/images/tweetthis_jpg” alt=”Tweet this!” /></a>
