Share Buttons - How to tell Pinterest to not save an image with simple JavaScript code

To exclude all images within a section with ID selector called "sidebar" with jQuery:

<script>
/* Code by Shareaholic.com */
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $("#sidebar img").attr("data-pin-nopin", "true");
});
</script>

To exclude all images within a section with class selector called "sidebar" with jQuery:

<script>
/* Code by Shareaholic.com */
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $(".sidebar img").attr("data-pin-nopin", "true");
});
</script>

You can also combine the two into one simple statement:

<script>
/* Code by Shareaholic.com */
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $("#sidebar img, .sidebar img").attr("data-pin-nopin", "true");
});
</script>

The following would exclude all images from Pinterest:

<script>
/* Code by Shareaholic.com */
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $("img").attr("data-pin-nopin", "true");
});
</script>

Including the following meta tag in the </head> section of your template would also exclude all images from Pinterest from that page:

<meta name="pinterest" content="nopin" />

How to include jQuery in your template

Most sites already have jQuery available. In-case yours doesn't and you need to include jQuery, include the following in the </head> section of your template before you add any of the snippets detailed above. It is critical that jQuery is included before you try to use jQuery.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.4/jquery.min.js"></script>

You can grab the latest version of jQuery here: https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/#jquery

Whitelist select images

You can whitelist just the images that you would like shared:

<img src="https://blog.com/whitelist-image1.jpg" class="sharethisimg">
<img src="https://blog.com/some-other-image.jpg">
<img src="https://blog.com/whitelist-image2.jpg" class="sharethisimg bar">

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
 $("img").attr("data-pin-nopin", "true");  // blacklists all images
 $(".sharethisimg").removeAttr("data-pin-nopin", "true");  // whitelists all images with "sharethisimg" class
});
</script>

Instafeed.js

  get: 'tagged',
  tagName: 'awesome',
  clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  template: '<a href="{{link}}"><img src="{{image}}" data-pin-nopin="true"></a>'
});
feed.run();
</script>
