I have been using the Diaspora* social media platform ( http://joindiaspora.com ) for a couple of weeks, and I’ve noticed a growing number of others doing the same, so I thought I would write a WordPress plugin to easily add a Diaspora sharing button to posts.
Download
Version 0.1 is available for download [ here ].
Installation
- Unzip and Upload the folder ‘burnmans-diaspora-button’ to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Donate to support development if you like the plugin!
Screenshots
Future Features
- Configurable settings page with the ability to select where in the post the button is displayed
Changelog
Version 0.1

Thank you man!
Just tested fine on our blog. An option for a smaller icon would be great.
Cheers!
You are most welcome! I will absolutely work on adding some alternative buttons, thanks for the suggestion.
Friend who work incredibly, my congratulations wanted to know the minimum programming to contribute to this plugin !
Maybe I’m studying to learn there !
The design of the button was the one who created you ?
I loved this plugin !
super great!!!
not displaying as it should on my page though. :/
maybe it’s interfering with the facebook plugin XD
ah and it’s pod specific. please imply that in the settings! ty
Fantastic! Mahalo.
Problem: it doesn’t seem to consider the decentralised aspect of diaspora? Or am I missing something?
I am working on an update to consider decentralization of Diaspora, it’s a little hectic at the moment around here, but I hope to have something available soon.
Thanks for your work !
But on my blog the button doesn’t work, nothing happen when I click on
There are several ways to make it provider-agnostic:
* Try to use a ‘web+diaspora’ protocol (Chrome AFAIK requires the ‘web+’ prefix) if the user has registered it. See https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Web-based_protocol_handlers
* Let user to write the @provider.tld and save it (protocol handler, cookie, cookie of a central redirecting web).
* Create webbrowser addons rather than web widgets.
What do I need to do to eliminate the share button from my index.php page? I’m really only interested in having the button on the single.php pages.
