This add-on for [Shared Counts](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shared-counts) allows you to share a different image on Pinterest.

Shared Counts uses the post's featured image for sharing across all platforms. But given the unique display of images on Pinterest, it's useful to specify a separate, Pinterest-only image that's formatted for that service.

This plugin will only work if [Shared Counts](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shared-counts) is active. It does not work with any other social sharing plugins.

## Installation ##
1. Download the plugin [from GitHub.](https://github.com/billerickson/Shared-Counts-Pinterest-Image/archive/master.zip) or from [WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shared-counts-pinterest-image/).
2. Activate plugin.
3. When editing a post, use the "Pinterest Sharing Image" metabox in the sidebar (see screenshot).

## Customization ##

By default the Pinterest Sharing Image box is only added to posts, but you can use a filter to add support for other post types.

The following code will add the box to pages. Add it to your theme's functions.php file or a [Core Functionality plugin](https://www.billerickson.net/core-functionality-plugin/).

```php
/**
 * Pinterest Sharing Image on pages
 *
 * @author Bill Erickson
 * @see https://github.com/billerickson/Shared-Counts-Pinterest-Image
 *
 * @param array $post_types
 * @return array
 */
function be_pinterest_image_on_pages( $post_types ) {
	$post_types[] = 'page';
	return $post_types;
}
add_filter( 'shared_counts_pinterest_image_post_types', 'be_pinterest_image_on_pages' );
```
