Topic Share Bar Add-on for phpBB

PHPBB ADDON free
Not rated yet Be the first

A share strip under the topic title — links out to the networks your members actually use.

Puts a share bar right under the topic title, so a good thread is one click away from being posted elsewhere.

• Extension-based: ext/dataforums/sharebar, enabled from the ACP.
• Rendered through a template event, so it survives style updates.
• No tracking scripts and no third-party JavaScript.

Requires phpBB 3.2 or 3.3.

What's included

  • A share bar under the topic title for the networks your members actually use.
  • A phpBB 3.2/3.3 extension (dataforums/sharebar) enabled from ACP → Customise.
  • Injected through a template event, so phpBB updates do not overwrite it.

Questions people ask

Does it create database tables?

No. It reads what the platform already stores, so there is nothing to migrate or clean up.

Does it edit core phpBB files?

No. It is a proper extension that adds its markup through a template event — disable it and the board is exactly as it was.

How do I check the file I downloaded?

Every release page prints a SHA-256 checksum. Hash the archive locally and compare — if the two differ, the download is damaged, not the release.

How are updates delivered?

Each version is its own release on this page with a changelog, and the older archive stays available. Install the new one over the old one; your settings and data stay where they are.
