List of news recommended by other users

If you own a website (most likely a news portal) where users can share multiple articles, you can use a widget that lists news stories recommended by other users. In order to insert the widget use this code:

<iframe src="https://www.draugiem.lv/say/ext/recommend.php?url=...&count=..." frameborder="0"></iframe>

In the code please insert the arguments in an urlencoded form:

url

Website address (ommiting this argument will use the HTTP referer as the base url)

count

Number of articles to show. (2-15)

scrollable

Optional argument. Whether the content should be scrollable or not. Works together with the height argument. If the inner height exceeds the defined height a scrollbar will appear. You can disable it using this argument.

height

Optional argument. Defines the height of the block. In case you omit the argument content will be resized automatically.

If you wish to show images near the article titles, you should add a couple of meta tags to the article content. The image dimensions are 50x50. In case you don't have an image for the article, please pass the logo of your site.

Meta tags to add:

<meta name="dr:say:img" content="https://ifrype.com/img/clogo/applications.png" />
<meta name="dr:say:title" content="Raksta virsraksts" />

The widget will look like this:

Simple recommendation function

In order to allow your page users to recommend the content of your page you can add this simple JavaScript function to your code and call it with the arguments of your choice:

function DraugiemSay( title, url, titlePrefix ){
 window.open(
  'https://www.draugiem.lv/say/ext/add.php?title=' + encodeURIComponent( title ) +
  '&link=' + encodeURIComponent( url ) +
  ( titlePrefix ? '&titlePrefix=' + encodeURIComponent( titlePrefix ) : '' ),
  '',
  'location=1,status=1,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=530,height=400'
 );
 return false;
}

Example usage:

DraugiemSay('Link title text', 'https://www.full.site.domain/and/path/to/file.html', 'Red colored Prefix');

Draugiem recommendation JavaScript bookmarklet

If some page you would like to recommend does not have a Draugiem recommendation button, you can use this JavaScript bookmarklet to recommend the site:

<a href="javascript:(function(){window.open('https://www.draugiem.lv/say/ext/add.php?title='+encodeURIComponent((document.getSelection%20?%20(document.getSelection()%20?%20document.getSelection()%20:%20document.title):(document.selection.createRange%20?%20(document.selection.createRange().text%20?%20document.selection.createRange().text%20:%20document.title):document.title)))+'&link='+window.location+(document.domain?'&titlePrefix='+document.domain.replace('www.',%20''):''),'','location=1,status=1,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=530,height=400');})();">Recommend to friends</a>

The bookmarklet works very simple - if the page has higlhlighted text, it will be used as title text (if there's no text selected page title will be used), the currently opened page will be used as link and the domain name part will be used as the title prefix.
