Using a Custom URL Scheme
If you already have a URL on your site that accepts shared content,
and that URL includes the URL and title of the link being shared, you
can add that to the Service Directory without changing anything. Simply
select the "Custom" choice in the form and specify that URL, using
special tags to represent how you want the URL and title passed in:
- {{url}}: will be replaced with the URL of the link being shared
- {{title}}: will be replaced with the title of the page being shared
- {{desc}}: will be replaced with the description of the page being shared (if available)
For example, if you entered a URL like this:
http://www.example.com/share.php?the_url={{url}}&title={{title}}
Then when a user wants to share something to your service, we'll
send the browser to that URL, replacing the template parameters
appropriately.
