Facebook Sidebox

Not really. You could use the Blank Sidebox mod, but one of the Facebook mods (like this one: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...oducts_id=1547) would do the work for you.

Well....in the end I just created a banner and pasted in the html.....no files to install/change.

Do you know anyone using this MOD?

Trying to add the Facebook Like Button code to the blank sidebox addon, but when I do, nothing shows up. Here's my code in tpl_blank_sidebox.php, is there anything wrong?:

  $content = '';
  $content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

This is my code for facebook sidebox (I wrote this code in languages - extra definitions - my template
<?php
/**

**/

define('BOX_HEADING_FACEBOOK', 'Facebook');
define('FACEBOOK_PROFILE', 'Cristy Adi');
define('FACEBOOK_API_KEY', '****');
define('FACEBOOK_LOCALE', 'en_US');
define('FACEBOOK_BOX_WIDTH', '200px');
define('FACEBOOK_BOX_HEIGHT', '180px');

// Show stream, facebook logo; logo and stream OFF - can be set to ON = 1 or keep OFF = 0. */
define('INCLUDE_FACEBOOK_STREAM', '1');
define('INCLUDE_FACEBOOK_LOGO', '1');

//Set the number of funs to show, set to 0 to not show
define('INCLUDE_FACEBOOK_FANS', '3');

?>

My site shows it but it says "Could not retrieve id for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in."
What's the problem?

Problem solved. You have to have a page on facebook so facebook like box plugin to work on your site.
