Which possibility to share the survey with Facebook and Twitter? I am not aware of such a feature.

Can you show me where to find this?

That is what I assume, but then why ask us and not the person who did it? ;-)

Thanks Joffm. I had looked around my LS5 installation but couldn't find anything like it.

Looked again and I don't have this "sharing panel" button. Is this something that needs to be configured?

I think the survey has to be activated.
Because I am writing on my smartphone I can't check.

That makes sense. Just did a quick test and once the survey is activated the sharing panel appears. No idea on how to avoid it though, as I just found out how it appears... ;-)

Hey Joffm,

you are totaly right with youzr screenshots.
That is what i'm looking for.

I also checked the possibility to hide it via a custom theme, but i'm not good to read/write code
Any idseas how to hide it? 
We are concered about the possibility to publish the survey Headline and local URL on social media so easy because of privacy.

Thank you
Toby

OK, I understand that you are concered that someone might publish the survey (URL and Headline) on social media.

However, to be honest, this is more a soft skill issue than a technical issue. Yes, these sharing options make it a little easier to share on Facebook and Twitter, but hey, copying the survey URL and pasting it on Twitter or Facebook is not really rocked science, is it?

So if you really don't want someone from your institution to post on social media, you might have to tackle this in a different way anyway, right?

It's not implemented in version 3.x.
Started in 5.x.

So you have to publish it manually.
