<h3>Extending the Plugin</h3>
<p>Social Bridge supports extensions for additional social media platforms. Developers can create add-on plugins that register new platform integrations using the provided API.</p>
<p>To create an extension:</p>
<ol>
<li>Create a new plugin that depends on Social Bridge</li>
<li>Create a class that extends <code>Social_Bridge_Integration</code></li>
<li>Implement the required abstract methods</li>
<li>Register your integration using the <code>social_bridge_integrations</code> filter</li>
</ol>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>`php
</code></pre>
<p>// Register a new integration<br />
function my_plugin_register_integration($integrations) {<br />
    $integrations[‘twitter’] = new My_Twitter_Integration();<br />
    return $integrations;<br />
}<br />
add_filter(‘social_bridge_integrations’, ‘my_plugin_register_integration’);<br />
    `</p>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>Social Bridge includes built-in integration for two social media platforms: Bluesky and Mastodon.<br />
When enabled, Social Bridge interacts with the APIs of these platforms to retrieve data<br />
from social media posts specified by authors on your site.</p>
<p>These integrations do not transmit any user data from your site to the third-party<br />
platforms. However, they will use the authentication or API credentials you provide<br />
in the Social Bridge settings to access the respective platforms.</p>
<p>The plugin will only communicate with these platforms when explicitly configured to<br />
do so—such as when a post on your site includes social media links in the Social Interactions metabox.</p>
<p>After configured both in the plugin settings and on individual posts, Social Bridge will routinely<br />
re-communicate with these platforms, in order to update its cache of social media comments, likes and shares.</p>
<p>You can review Bluesky’s privacy policies <a href="https://bsky.social/about/support/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a><br />
and <a href="https://bsky.social/about/support/network-services-privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>.</p>
<p>For Mastodon, each server maintains its own privacy policy. You should review the policy<br />
of the specific server you use. As an example, the mastodon.social policy is<br />
available <a href="https://mastodon.social/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>.</p>
