Description
Some DevOpsDays events do not use certain social platforms (such as Facebook or Twitter) and would prefer not to display those share buttons on their event pages. Currently, the social share buttons (Email, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) are controlled globally in the theme partials (footer_scripts.html), making it impossible to hide or customize them on a per-event basis without editing shared theme files.
This limitation was discussed in #15295.
The core team advised against modifying the common theme files for individual event needs. Per their suggestion, I'm raising an issue/proposal.
Request:
Please consider adding a mechanism (e.g., frontmatter or event config option) that allows each event to specify which social share buttons should be shown or hidden. This would allow events to opt out of platforms they do not use, improving the relevance and professionalism of their event pages.
Example use case:
Halifax 2025 does not use Facebook or Twitter, so only "Email" and "LinkedIn" should be shown.
Other events may want the default set, or a different combination.
Thank you for considering this enhancement!
