Jax2 on "Trying to get a slide-down facebook share box on my posts"

Hi all,

I am currently using 2 small plugins to try and achieve my goal of making a slide-down facebook share box that users see when they scroll to the bottom of a post: WP-insert and End Page Slidebox.

With WP insert, I add the tags from end page slidebox ([epsb] [/epsb]) in the "after content" section. It works as it should displaying whatever I have between the tags. So far so good.

Now, the issue I am having is that I would like the box to show the image from the post, title, and a small snipet from the story.

I have tried to use <?php the_content() ?> as well as the_title() ...etc etc, in the code box, but because these only work in the loop, nothing is showing up.

Can anyone suggest how I might create the share box code so that the user gets a preview of what is being shared? It's kind of driving me crazy. The only thing I have managed so far is a small facebook share button, just the standard one, it's not what I'm looking for.

Thanks in advance!
