Problem/Motivation

Drupal Canvas currently exposes two "Share" entries in its component library:
the legacy Webshare block and the Share SDC. Editors get a duplicated, confusing
choice in the component picker. Behaviour, look, and settings differ between the
two paths.

The approved Figma design and the rest of the Vartheme/Varbase Canvas authoring
experience expect a single, themed Share component with predictable settings — not
a block-based control that exists alongside a parallel SDC.

Proposed resolution

  • Add the Share component (SDC) to Varbase and
    Vartheme as a first-class Drupal Canvas component.
  • Mirror the legacy Share block settings on the SDC 1:1 — Title, Display title,
    Alignment, Orientation, Mobile visibility, Native share button, Placement — so
    editors keep the same authoring controls.
  • Hide the legacy Webshare Share block from the Canvas component library
    (the block remains installed for backward compatibility; it is just not listed).
  • Have the component auto-fill the share URL and the enabled social platforms
    for the current page, so it works out of the box with no manual configuration.
