Wondering if anyone has actually managed to get the "share" functionality working in an email newsletter. Currently being asked by a client to "share" a certain part of a newsletter directly to a persons wall. However, the HTML will be generated by 1 program, and then a copy and paste into the email blaster to be sent.

Essentially, wondering can it be done? Are there any examples?

The like button plugin will work for a web page, not content in an email. The share is being deprecated. The send button plugin is used to share a URL (which is not content of an email).

I would suggest that the html of the email being blasted also be hosted on a web page. Then have that like (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/) button's (that is being send via email) set it's href property to that of the hosted web page. That should work well.

Happy coding!
