The ShareThis plugin gives you the option of placing buttons only where you want them or of having buttons automatically placed on every page. If you select to not have them automatically placed on every page you can simply copy and past the HTML code that appears on the ShareThis Options page wherever you want them to appear.

For example, that code can be pasted to WordPress pages or posts containing EME shortcodes to put buttons on those pages or it can be pasted various places in event and/or location format code on the Events Manager Options page to have buttons display for each event and/or location. The same code could optionally be added to the site theme to display buttons in the header, footer or side panel.

Someone who knows how to write a little supplemental code can make the buttons display or not in each of those places according to complex rules, if desired. There is a lot of flexibility and usage can range from extremely simply to complex depending on needs and site-developer programming knowledge.

To do exactly what you asked about, select to not have buttons automatically placed on each page and add the following code somewhere within the <li>... </li> tags in the “Default event list format” on the “Event Manager Options” page:

<span class='st_facebook_large' st_title='{TITLE}' st_url='{URL}' displayText='share'></span><span class='st_twitter_large' st_title='{TITLE}' st_url='{URL}' displayText='share'></span><span class='st_email_large' st_title='{TITLE}' st_url='{URL}' displayText='share'></span><span class='st_sharethis_large' st_title='{TITLE}' st_url='{URL}' displayText='share'></span>

Can’t you use a placeholder for that? #_EVENTPAGEURL gives you the url for the single event

Hey folks, I just went through this to get the AddThis plugin to link properly to specific EME events. Up until now it was only providing links to http://example.org/events (our EME events placeholder page).

So with a little help from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7127578/addthis-changing-description-title-and-url-being-sent I was able to add the following code block to EME’s Default Single Event Format box. What I actually had to do was a View Source on one of our live NON-event pages where I had the AddThis toolbar, so I could grab exactly the right addthis_button “classes” to match our setup. I also chose NOT to use the “pubid” from the StackOverflow example, but copied our live pubid from the View Source as well. (Not sure, but I think the pubid is unique and used for AddThis’s sinister tracking of our site activity.)

So anyhow, here’s something you can use in EME if you’re an AddThis user.

_________________

First, go to your WordPress placeholder PAGE for the EME “events” and turn OFF AddThis for THAT PAGE. (Checkmark “Remove AddThis”.)

Then add the following to your Default Single Event Format code. I have the same toolbar button code repeated at the top and bottom.

<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->

<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style "

addthis:url="#URL_EVENTPAGEURL"

addthis:title="#URL_NAME"

addthis:description="#URL_LOCATION">

<a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a><a class="addthis_button_tweet"></a><a class="addthis_button_google_plusone" g:plusone:size="medium"></a><a class="addthis_counter addthis_pill_style"></a>

</div>

<script type="text/javascript"

src="//s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#pubid=OUR_HEXADECIMAL_PUBID"></script>

<!-- AddThis Button END -->

Obviously modify the “classes” as you see fit to match your desired buttons.

Oh, by the way, as per the StackOverflow discussion, the addthis:title and addthis:description substitutions are IGNORED by AddThis — it picks them up, correctly, from the page anyway — but I went ahead and inserted relevant EME shortcodes there just in case. The addthis:url is the only important one.
