Conditionally display Genesis Social Share, e.g. not on a specific category

The Genesis Social Share plugin is one of the must have plugins for Genesis sites. See https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-simple-share/

I wanted to display these icons (just like the ones on this post) except on posts in a specific category.  I had to read the plugin code to work this out. Fortunately the code is an example of beautifully written code. However my first attempts didn’t work, there was some trial and error required finding the right hooks and I’m still not 100% certain why this works and my other attempts didn’t.

So add this code to your functions.php (suitably modified for your specific conditions) and I hope it will work for you.

add_action( 'genesis_before', 'myfunc_genesis_before' );

function myfunc_genesis_before() {
    // check to see if a single post and in a category (changes as required )
    if ( is_single && in_category('my-category')) {
        global $Genesis_Simple_Share;
	remove_action( 'genesis_loop', array( $Genesis_Simple_Share, 'start_icon_actions' ), 5  );
	remove_action( 'genesis_loop', array( $Genesis_Simple_Share, 'end_icon_actions'   ), 15 ); 
		}

}

About Alan

I'm Alan from Fullworks Digital Ltd, where I develop WordPress Plugins .

My day job consists of developing new code and solutions along with support my WordPress plugin user.

I started as a professional programmer in 1979 and had been involved with the IT of business technology in virtually every area that exist.

Badlywired.com is my technical notebook, my aide memoire of the many interesting facts that I come across and 'how to' recipes of things I do infrequently. As I spend a lot of time gathering parts of solutions from the internet and assembling them into my own solutions, and also just learning how to do things, this blog is one way of giving something back to the online community that has helped me extensively.
