Facebook Like Button

seanruk:

Hi

I found the problem...

I had to change
<meta property="fb:admins" content="174717399208075"/>

to
<meta property="fb:admins" content="entered email address"/>

This still gives an error when using the developer tool but the add-on works.

Cheers

That's interesting! With your implementation it's going to be absolutely impossible to update the pages that are created by Facebook (for your liked pages). I doubt that FB is even able to create the pages. You can't administer a page that doesn't have an admin or application.

Just wanting to let y'all know - that bug we found has been corrected. If you commented out that line (was it the meta tag for type?), you should be able to remove the comments. (so says the bug forum)

As far as changing the display, it might well not be possible. Facebook puts its own css on these things. Try putting the code into a division with a css class with a color of white and see what happens.
Finally got around to doing this and found it to be quite simple.
All I did was add the following to the fb:like code in tpl_product_info_display.php

Oh, and so far the aforementioned FB bug does seem to be fixed.

You can also change the standard style to box_count or button_count

I installed it and have checked everything several times, but when I like a product it posts a link, but not an image or the comments. Any ideas where I might have messed up?

I installed it but it is not working!! It gives an error which is :

The application ID specified within the "fb:app_id" meta tag is not allowed on this domain. You must setup the Connect Base Domains for your application to be a prefix of http://bellissima-scarves.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=49&products_id=175.

What shall I do??

One more time:

the only way an image gets posted is if the person comments on it - just liking doesn't do it.

Make sure you have your application id placed in the two files. Make sure you are using the correction id.

What is the correction id??

Think it's working correctly....only way to know will be when someone clicks on it.

My question has to do with the width of the inserted column. Any way to shrink that down, it's throwing off my right columns.

Here's an example...

Cool addition, thank you.

Hi,

Looks like a great mod and very easy to install.

Just wondering if the fb_xd_fragment issue is still a problem or if that has been fixed by Facebook?

Many thanks,

Ed

I'll catch this one, then maybe the next guy showing up on this thread will tell me how to size the box a bit smaller. :)

From what I've read, it looks like the issue is still there, and the Facebook people have it on a TODO list that's pretty long.

The fix is reasonably simple, just go to your webmaster tools at google, yahoo, bing, etc and exclude that fragment from being indexed. Couple clicks and you should be good.

so once installed and checked out with chrome's Inspect Element feature it would appear this uses iframes after all?

That's possible. It's their api.

well as long as it doesn't caust the iframe error :smile:

Thanks for the amazing mod! EXACTLY what I was looking for. I implemented with no problems. A few ccustomizations:

• I didn't like the extended text of 'be the first one to like this...', I removed it by adding in an attribute called layout="button_count", it looks like this: <fb:like layout="button_count">

• I placed the button below my image on the product page by inserting your text into tpl_modules_main_product_image.php instead of tpl_product_info_display.php . Seems to be working.

small typo in the readme.txt - tpl_product_info.php should be tpl_product_info_display.php ? (maybe this is some type of customization in my template? but it threw me off until I figured it out)

Thank you again!!!

Thank you for this excellent addon!

SyberTemplates saved me because a had the same error:

The application ID specified within the "fb:app_id" meta tag is not allowed on this domain. You must setup the Connect Base Domains for your application to be a prefix of .

One more thing I did and worked for me:
Needed to add a '/' at the end of this: Site URL HTTP://WWW.YOURDOMAIN.COM/

I hope this can help someone else!

Did that shorten the overall length of the button? Looking to cut a few dozen pixels off the length so my sideboxes go back where they're sposed to be.

I have spent many hours to solve this problem, but no luck!

b) there is not thumbnail
c) I get this message from facebook: "Could not post to Wall The message could not be posted to this Wall."

2.If I try to post a product link to facebook wall:

I used the URL Linter but that didn't helped much..
I have also installed a facebook fan box and my site is only in greek language.

This facebook behaviour is my fault?

Thanks in advance!

Happy new year to everyone!

I followed this tutorial and everything works fine, except one thing: I cannot post any link to my facebook wall from my site.
I have spent many days looking for a solution...:(

Could anyone help me solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

If you are going to do by Kerrin's instructions instead of using this mod, I suggest you ask Kerrin for help. He's a really nice fellow and did respond to my email.
