How do I share a post in the Facebook app for iPad?

My mom uses the Facebook app for iPad and wanted to share a post, such as on the web interface:

How does one share a post within the app?

You cannot re-share posts from the iOS Facebook app.

You can re-share posts if you:

• Browser to https://www.facebook.com/ in mobile Safari
• Log in
• Click the three bar icon in the upper left hand corner to bring up the side bar
• Scroll to the very bottom of the side bar
• Click the "Desktop Version" link at the very bottom of the side

This will give you the full Facebook desktop web view and from here you can re-share posts in your timeline.

Unfortunately, the Facebook for iPad app does not allow this in the native app.

One way to do this on the iPad is to log into Facebook from Safari and share a post as you would from any web browser.

Another possibility is the Friendly Plus for Facebook app. I'm not sure if it allows sharing of posts, but it does say in the release notes for version 3.5.3 that it "fixed share issue" so it's a possibility. Worth $.99 I'd say.
