Fixed Mobile version share function

[HenrikHansen]

In the mobile version, share function, I cannot see icons the various share options.

We might need you to be more specific but in principle that may be as expected.

The mobile version of the share controls as of XF 2.2 presents a single share button which opens the browser's native share sheet. This will present the sharing options which are actually available to the device, i.e. it will display a WhatsApp icon to share to as long as your device has the WhatsApp app installed, and so on.

You should see the share icon at the bottom of the thread like so:




Clicking it should bring up the share screen like this:

This is it, why all the blank space next to share icon? At first, I was a little unsure what to do next.

 

[HenrikHansen]

Brogan, I know, but why this extra step in mobil, and not desktop version?

 

[Chris D]

Actually that icon should be triggering the native share sheet straight away.

Which Android device and version is the screenshot from?

I can reproduce it on iOS.

Now we've got the information needed and a reproduction case I will move back to bugs.

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.0 RC2).

Change log:

Implement the native web-share control properly on article lists.

There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.

Thanks @HenrikHansen this should be sorted now here if you'd like to test - hopefully its behaviour should make a little more sense now.
