Answer 1

You can create a custom link as described here using a small jQuery script

$('.linkPinIt').click(function(){
    var url = $(this).attr('href');
    var media = $(this).attr('data-image');
    var desc = $(this).attr('data-desc');
    window.open("//www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/"+
    "?url="+url+
    "&media="+media+
    "&description="+desc,"_blank","top=0,right=0,width=750,height=320");
    return false; 
});

this will work for all links with class linkPinItwhich have the image and the description stored in the HTML 5 data attributes data-image and data-desc

    Pin it!
