I am using the Internet Jobs Theme. For some reason, the forward link does not show on front page nodes. It only displays after clicking on "more"

This is by design, since the homepage isn;t itself a node, but rather a list of teasers. If you were to create a node and then assing that as your homepage (administer->settings), you would see the email this page link then. The forward module also has an e-postcard feature, whereby you can create a link anywhere on your site pointing to /epostcard and that will allow users to send a postcard style message without a specific node attached. That postcard is themeable independent of the page forward template. You can see an example of that in the right sidebar on this site:

Hi Seanr,

Is there a way that I could add a "forward this page" link in the $links variable for the teasers on the front page? When I used the Email this Page Module, I could switch this on in its settings page. Could you point me in the right direction? I'm not a coder. Maybe there is some code I can copy and paste from that module into yours?

The reason I'm asking for this is because I'm creating a Digg type of site where the teasers on the front page are the main content. My users usually will not click on "more"

thanks in advance,
Vincent

P.S. The dynamic form effect rocks!

I'll look into it. Give me a few days, though.
