    Hey,

    I was wondering if there is a way to tweet, like, share threads and individual posts?

    Not a big deal but when I thought of it, I looked but couldn't find an obvious way. I came to this board and checked the top 10 FAQ and the how to FAQ. Then I searched for tweet on this board but no results.

    I did see there is a Thread Tools which has a printable page and email option but none of the others I mentioned.

    Have I missed the feature or has it been an idea that was shot down or is it in development or something else I haven't thought of?

    You can tweet/share etc. by copying the URL and pasting it to facebook or twitter. If you like you can use any number of URL-shortening tools, such as:

    http://goo.gl
    http://bit.ly
    http://su.pr
    http://ow.ly
    http://tinyurl.com etc. These will all allow you to shorten your URLs to keep within the character limits on FB/twitter. They also give a preview of the thread title etc. on facebook, which is nice. :)

    I presume he means a single quick button to do the lot, in which case, no there isn't one. VBulletin predates all this new fangled social media rubbish, so it's absent, and not likely to be added given the long term move away from VBulletin.
