Has someone already integrated Social Network links into CPS?
For example, if one visits this page : http://blogs.nuxeo.com/
ebarroca/
one sees a "Don't miss a thing!" part at the top with social
"bookmark"
functionality.

So, who has done this already for CPS? Would that be worse to
integrate into CPS or should that be done as per-site customizations?
I'm waiting for your possible advises and remarks before digging into
this and possibly trying to implement something. I'll open a ticket
if others are interested.
Hi, some thoughts :
this is typically the job for a portlet. The simplest (the less work
for you) would be to make a text portlet. After all, it's just about
some HTML fragment and some JavaScript.
A more integrated way of doing this would be to make a new portlet
type (Social Links Portlet, Web Two Zero Portlet, whatever you like),
with a Generic Multiselect widget to let people choose the links they
wanna display.
In all cases, I don't believe this should be displayed by default,
because the people using CPS as a pure intranet application wouldn't
want it. This makes me think that we may start a new product some day
to cover the use-cases of communication towards the general public
(I'm not so found of CPSWebPublisher, because it's basically taking
down the major specificity of CPS, namely the workspaces/sections
duality). This could become a new product of its own, and I'd have a
few more ideas for it.
All of this is really consistent with the new theming engine. With
features such as uploadable local themes and an online theme bank, we
could make with CPS a powerful website farm. I'd be curious to see the
inputs from the mailing list on this.
In the meanwhile, if the overhead of creating a new product is a pain
to you, a new extension profile in CPSDefault would certainly do.
Cheers,
