Add New Facebook "Like" button to your threads

[ericgtr]

Please remember to click Mark as Installed if you use this modification.

Facebook has just launched their latest "Like" button to developers to use on any site. What this does is utilizes the Advertising module to add the "Like" button to the first post of each thread. Please see screenshots to get an idea.

In your Admin CP go to Advertising > New Ad > Choose "Thread" from the dropdown and then select the first thread box. Give it a title (I called mine FB Like) leave "First Post Content" at default and paste in this code:

<!-- Facebook Like -->
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.YOURSITE.com/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}, {vb:raw pageinfo_post}}#post{vb:raw post.postid}&amp;layout=button_count&amp;show_faces=true&amp;w idth=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:px"></iframe>
<!-- / Facebook Like -->


Be sure to change YOURSITE.com to your URL including your forum.

The VBSEO team has instructions on how to make this work for their product here http://www.vbseo.com/f2/facebook-like-button-vbulletin-42695/#post265997

===========================================
Option 2 (different from above, do not use together) will show at top, see screenshot #3

In Postbit (or legacy) find:

{vb:raw ad_location.thread_first_post_content}


Add this after:

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND ($post[postcount] == '1')"
<!-- Facebook Like -->
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.YOURSITE.com/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}}&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=450 &amp;action=like&amp;font=tahoma&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:75px"></iframe>
<!-- / Facebook Like -->
</vb:if>


For additional information on this button and different parameters please visit http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like

=================================================

For those who have asked, here is the modification adds both the "Like" button and comments to a users profile https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=239424

=================================================
Additional locations to place this code:

For CMS, in vbcms_content_article_page add the code below this:

{vb:raw comment_block}


For pictures, in template album_pictureview add the code below this:

{vb:raw picturecomment_commentarea}


For Blog, in template blog_show_entry add at the very top.

I also get "error"

The page at http://mysitehere.net/showthread.php?t could not be reached.

Also it seems not to work with VBSeo

[Doctor Death]

Would be great to have a dislike button as well.

Can it also be tagged to each post in a thread or can it only deal with first post?

[saviola8x]

Wherever you want. :up:

[trackpads]

I changed the width to =50 so that it didnt push the content around

[trackpads]

Suggestion: Can you create a hack like this so users can like members profiles?

[ericgtr]

To anyone getting a submit error, be sure your URL is correct. Also, I have not tested with vbseo and it will most likely need to be re-worked for that.

@trackpads I will look into that, I'm sure the parameters will have to be modified for that page.

[PixelFx]

looks like sweet addon thanks :D

[wacnstac]

Can this also be used with 3.8.X?

i agree 100 percent. with out the thread title of what you are liking its not descriptive enough to get people to visit.

[ericgtr]

As it stands it will not work with 3.8 because the variable names have changed. I do not have a 3.x board to test on anymore.

Understood, let's see if we can get this working with VBSEO by presenting this question to them, we need to convert this to VBSEO:

{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}, {vb:raw pageinfo_post}}#post{vb:raw post.postid}


Please see if you can get one of their people to answer this and we can then add a VBSEO version of this mod here.

[wacnstac]

If someone could supply the variable names to make this work on 3.8.X I'd really appreciate it.

[wacnstac]

Even taking the stock "share" IFRAME from facebook, is giving me an error right now. Perhaps their system is overloaded?

[Da-Vinci]

Using the code from the 2nd post mine looks like this with VBSEO installed. and I think it's a pretty cool mod.

Obviously I'm using Adsense so it makes more sence to have the like button beneath the title, but I've found no problems with VBSEO.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

One question, I have though is there a conditional, I can use to exclude certain forums?

[ericgtr]

If it has the red "error" upon clicking then it most likely means the URL path isn't setup correctly. I would double check it.

I've taken the question to the devs.. it's odd. The link shows as the standard vB variable url inside the fb stuff, whether you use iframe or the js version.

Obviously the error is there to prevent people from having what they like link back to the wrong thing, but it's a tad annoying that it doesn't work with the way vbseo does it.

Does it work with the vB4 SEO options?

I'm afraid I don't have vbseo to test it on so I can't say. But yeah, like you say it checks the URL before it allows it which is good and bad I guess depending on how you look at it. The benefit to me for iframe is that it won't affect the board if it's slow for any reason.

Great effect! How you have done? Can you give me the code please?

[Da-Vinci]

Yes it's in the 2nd post of this thread.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2025432&postcount=2

Maybe the VBSEO problem is to do with the type of url rewrite you use, I use 002 - Hierarchic directory type URLs with content relevant threads (used at www.vBSEO.com) for my forumURL's, but obviously if your using a different type of URL rewrite it's not something you want to change.

Also not wanting to be a pest but can anybody answear this?

Is there a conditional, I can use to exclude certain forums?

The reason being we have a few private forums which I would prefer not to be displayed on Facebook, and although I can tell the members who have access to said forums not to click the Like button in the said sections, you will always get one or two, who will.

[hiker]

Nice mod. Will install it soon. I was waiting for this since the news of Facebook discontinuing the Facebook Connect soon.

[Alien]

On multi-page threads, it will put up the like text/icons at the top of every page.

Less than ideal, I'd like to see it only on page 1/post 1 of a thread...

Great work perfectly with vBSeo (with 002 rules like you). Thank you very much! :)

Cool glad it's worked for you, but I take no credit for any of the work, I just used what was available to me.

Here's the way around that:

In Postbit (or legacy) find:

{vb:raw ad_location.thread_first_post_content}


Add this after:

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND ($post[postcount] == '1')"

<!-- / Facebook Like -->
</vb:if>

This will only show on the first post no matter how many pages there are.

[Alien]

Excellent, eric. Thank you SO much. I'll just add an additional conditional to exclude some forums and we should be all set!

[ericgtr]

Excellent, eric. Thank you SO much. I'll just add an additional conditional to exclude some forums and we should be all set!

Nevermind, couldn't wait. Had to install it now. :D

Working perfectly!

Very cool! I've done in like it post 29 and edited it so that the height=30 instead of 75 and it looks really good.

Would you put that forum conditional right underneath the code from post 29?

Thank you Eric, but as for the conditional, is there not a way to just exclude certain forums rather than only show to certain forum as I have many many forums and sub forums that I would like to display the Like button on and only say 4 forums and 7 subforums I would like to exclude lol. I am just finding my way around conditional at the moment and will try to refer to the article that details the conditional to work this one out on my own, but any help is greatly appreciated.

Shouldnt :

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND ($post[postcount] == '1')"

be

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND ($post[postcount] == '1')">

I don't want to look stupid here but are those 2 conditionals not identical?

Sorry, as stated I cannot test on 3.8 because I no longer have that version, chances are the URL is not correct though, to double check view the source of your page to see the output URL.

There is supposed to be a bug in 4.0.0 - 4.0.2 in which ads won't diplay at all if you set them for certain forums: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/project.php?issueid=34416&page=2

TimberFloorAu, could you do me a favor and test your script on your forum. It's not working for me.

[ericgtr]

Correct, but with 400 million people using FB most who visit forums will probably already have it.

vBSEO owners can use the following fix http://www.vbseo.com/f2/facebook-like-button-vbulletin-42695/#post265997 to get this mode compatible with vBSEO

[War.Frog]

I'm not really concerned with the private forums - when I create a Like link in one of those, it just says I like my domain (XXX likes www.domain.com). Not an overly bad thing IMO!

Thanks! Updated the first post with this.

[dirtycrow]

OK, so i don't have VBseo installed, i've tried with both "basic Friendly URLs" and "advanced Friendly URLs" in my Server Settings and Optimization Options panel in the admin cp and on my facebook wall it displayed "likes (the forum name)" as opposed to "like (thread title) on (forum name).

is this how its supposed to work? it there something i'm missing to get the title of the thread to display? please advise.

[dirtycrow]

i run a private forum, is that why my thread title are not being shown? my forum is set up so you have to have an account before you see any content.

To be clear, this modification is setup to work with out of the box VB without VBSEO, that takes a separate plugin to work. As for it now showing the titles properly I would make sure that you don't have any other SEO mods/plugins running.

That will do it, remember that FB has to be able to read the thread as a guest in order to display its title.

[NFLfbJunkie]

I inserted the code so that the FB Like will only show in certain forums, but it continues to show in all forums. I have seen this code in two different ways in this thread. Is either one correct.

<vb:if condition="in_array($forum['forumid'], array(2,14))">Show this to forum 2 and 14</vb:if>

<vb:if condition="in_array($forum['forumid'],array(2,14))">

This is what I have and it doesn't just show these two forums:

<vb:if condition="in_array($forum['forumid'], array(2,14))">

Maybe my screenshots will help. If you're not logged into facebook, you'll see this:

http://www.bogley.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=33334&stc=1&d=1272003191

And when you are logged into facebook, you'll see this:

http://www.bogley.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=33333&stc=1&d=1272003174

Obviously, the above examples are using Option 2.

Option 1 would look like this, and I didn't like the way it was wrapping the text.

http://www.bogley.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=33327&stc=1&d=1272003056

And here's option 2 on the same thread:

change show_faces=true to show_faces=false

[worried]

Marked as unistalled. Although there seems to be no danger, it serves no purpose in a inaccessible forum.
EDIT: Installed. Having the code to specify forums changed my mind

[dirtycrow]

damn. no work around huh?
why doesn't it pull from the URL in private forums? the url's are supposed to be SEO friendly after all.

[ericgtr]

why doesn't it pull from the URL in private forums? the url's are supposed to be SEO friendly after all.
Because FB cannot access the URL as a guest. Try to think of FB as a guest on your site, if a guest cannot access a forum it cannot see the title.

[AURFSCAN]

I disagree.

From my knowledge of conditionals, even with multiple and / if / else statements inline. To display in particular forums the correct conditional is:

<vb:if condition="in_array($forum['forumid'], array(1,2,3))">Show this to forum 1, 2 and 3</vb:if>

[AURFSCAN]

$forum does not work for me


this does



<vb:if condition="in_array($thread['forumid'], array(1,2,3))">Show this to forum 1, 2 and 3</vb:if>

[AURFSCAN]

just try $thread

[CoZmicShReddeR]

On dark themes the part where it says "likes this.Be the first of your friends to like this." is too hard to read... Is there a way to color code that to a lighter color?

[TimberFloorAu]

Its an iframe, so apply a class to a div. Then add that class to your css

FB has been really slow for me but since this is iframe it still doesn't slow the site down but may affect the formatting a little bit. I think they are making site updates and it probably won't last too long.

Hi

I want to ask, the script works fine, it displays fine on peoples wall on facebook, but in VBULLETIN, different to how many people clicks on LIKE, it still displays , LIKE 1.

Only 1 not acumulate, any help would be appreciated , thanks!

[ericgtr]

I have this installed and working fine for forum posts, but how do I go about adding it for CMS articles, blog posts, and albums/pictures?
Here's some suggestions.

For CMS, in vbcms_content_article_page add the code below this:

{vb:raw comment_block}


For pictures, in template album_pictureview add the code below this:

{vb:raw picturecomment_commentarea}


This gives you the idea, I haven't added it to the blog yet but it's just a matter of locating the right template.

I click like, it shows up with the proper article title on my Facebook profile, however it links to the corresponding forum post for the article: http://www.npac.ca/2010/showthread.php/17-Article-Q-amp-amp-A-with-Rod-MacIvor

The 'like' does appear in both the forum post and article though.

How can I make it link straight back to the article? I'm not familiar with the {vb:link} stuff, so I don't really know what else to try instead.

Thanks again for your help!

That usually means something isn't right with your forum path, I would double check it.

have installed this. cheers.

how do you include tweets like in my attached image?

[wIrEs]

any way to display "Be the first of your friends to like this." in a different language ? like spanish or french. What i am trying to say is when a user changes the Forum Language from the bottom of the page, the phrase "Be the first of your friends to like this." should change accordingly.

This doesn't seem to work for me. No like button appears in the CMS article. I tried changing "THIS_SCRIPT == showthread" to "THIS_SCRIPT == content" with no luck either.

Any tips?

[unfv]

It worked for me, I have VB 4.0.3

[RockstarNetwork]

Okay I got it to work by removing the first and last lines containing the "<vb:if..." and "</vb:if>" code. Now to reposition it somewhere that's a bit more appealing...

Also, I'm having the same issue as on the previous page where it links to the forum thread for the article instead of the article itself. Any ideas on how to change that?

Edit: Resolved the above with this code in the cms article template:
<!-- Facebook Like -->
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href={vb:raw page_url}&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=45 0&amp;action=like&amp;font=tahoma&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:75px"></iframe>

Using this code it posts to facebook however the title is wrong, and it doesn't go to the specific blog, but rather all of the users blogs.


Is there a way to use the PostBit Legacy version you posted of the mod but make it work for blogs in the exact same way? (ie. posts blog title on FB and connects to the right blog?).

I know your other mod where you add the FB comment box has a "like" button that accomplishes this. I would like that basically without the cumbersome comment box (only like button).

Thanks in advance.

How can i add this to my CMS 2 ?

[ericgtr]

How can i add this to my CMS 2 ?
This code can be used pretty much anywhere, so it's just a matter of finding a location in your template for it. Not sure about CMS2 but what I normally do is find the template then look for keywords on the page that correspond to that template for placement ideas.

I just took a look and can't see why that's happening either, I even tested your code here http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box I wonder if there is a problem with that right now on their end.

[gyaronn]

should it be an static HTML or something deferent ?

[gyaronn]

ok got it working the idiots on FB wrote the wrong code dont know how i did not see it before :-(
they wrote: profile_id=XXXX but its not a profile so if you delete the "profile" and stay with id=XXXX than it works perfect :-)

this is the corect code to use (you need to change the XXXXXXXX to the page id):

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=XXXXXXXXXXXX&amp;width=223&amp;height=295&amp;c onnections=6&amp;stream=false&amp;header=false" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:223px; height:295px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

you can see an example at my site :-)

When we see the on and off (sporadic) behavior it could have to do with FB being overloaded and not loading. That's one of the benefits of iframe, it lets the rest of the page load around it.

Okay, just a couple of basics just to double check things. First we want to make sure you are sure the template is for the style you are using (even I overlook this sometimes) what I like to do is just type in "test" or something that will stick out where you would normally put that code and see if it displays.

[Cadellin]

Firstly this is a great mod - my members love it already and I'm expecting to pick a lot of traffic up from it so thank you :)

Secondly I can't get it working on albums. Using the {vb:raw page_URL} in the href attribute results in the following error from Facebook

You must specify an URL as part of this widget or API.

What should I be using as the href for albums?

[salvador21]

Okay, just a couple of basics just to double check things. First we want to make sure you are sure the template is for the style you are using (even I overlook this sometimes) what I like to do is just type in "test" or something that will stick out where you would normally put that code and see if it displays.

OK I tried it with "test" and it showed up fine. Then I tried the code and nothing.

Then I tried the code with the vb:if and it works.

Maybe I missed it before in the CMS because it is positioned at the bottom of the article. I now have the code at the top of the article, after

<div class="article cms_clear restore postcontainer">

[salvador21]

I can now get it to show in a blog by using the code without the "vb:if etc", but when you click on it the link in Facebook is going to a thread in the forum instead.

Is there a way to place this under the thread title at the top of the showthread template (above the first post and below the top reply button). I'd like to have it on every page since it's not convenient to go back to the first post to click "like." When I try it I get a big gap under the FB button/text.

you will get a big gap under it, Thats the code ( the facebook members Avatars show after they click it)in this space

[ericgtr]

Right, it's the iframe container. Additionally, that could be a modification to the showthread template instead of the postbit and I'm not sure the URL code will work in that template.

Where you have in the Like link www.YOURSITE.com you should replace that with {vb:raw $vboptions[bburl]}

Fantastic mod :D Works great, tho I'm trying to figure out how to get it to post to the stream. Plus it doesn't say "likes this thread at mywebsite.com" it just says "likes this thread" and links to it.

I've only been able to get it to show up on my personal page, it doesn't show in the newsfeed nor relates the actual website name.

Believe it has to do with the facebook connect and the new opengraph they got goin on, they don't talk quite right. Theres certain tags missing in headers that have to be added.

So I got the button to work, but why doesn't it show up on my Facebook wall when I like a thread? (like in picture #2) This will showing in your aktivities. What you mean ist the share button

try this code in the postbit/_legacy Template btw. use the vb ad system for this.

<a name="fb_share" type="button_count" share_url="{vb:raw $vboptions[bburl]}/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}}" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php">Share</a><script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share" type="text/javascript"></script>

then the Post will appear on your FB Wall. btw I think this function will be included in vb 4.0.4

[hiker]

Would it be possible to only show the Like button on threads with a certain prefix?

For instance, we've got a "Trip Report" prefix that works very well with the Like button. But it also shows on every other type of thread on the forum which is kind of a wasted space, such as questions about a trail or a shoe...

I see how it can be limited to certain forums, but we post "Trip Reports" in most of the forums, as well as general questions and discussion.

[hcmagix]

Perhaps with a specially condition <vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND ($post[postcount] == '1') AND ($forumid == 'XY')


for this conditional u must create a plugin in global_start with
$templatevalues['forumid'] = $forumid;
vB_Template::preRegister('header', $templatevalues);

not testet. is an idea

This is one of the reasons I don't want it on every thread, because of the ugly "blocked" box, but it is working wonderfully on the desired Thread Prefixes, I'd love to limit it to just those type of threads.

im struggling to get this working correctly as per the screenshots in OP.

When i click "like" it on my fb newsfeed it just says "xxx likes xxx forum"... does NOT say "xxx likes xxx on xxx forum" as per the screenshot. any help?

That usually means something isn't right with your forum path, I would double check it.


For whatever reason, it has started showing up on everyone's facebook walls. But now I have the same issue Red Spider was having.

For my forum path I have http://members.lovingfromadistance.com/forum.php

Am I missing anything? Did I do anything wrong?

i checked the links, if i remove a character in this case '=', it'd work.

Please remember to click Mark as Installed if you use this modification.

Facebook has just launched their latest "Like" button to developers to use on any site. What this does is utilizes the Advertising module to add the "Like" button to the first post of each thread. Please see screenshots to get an idea.

Here's the fix that seems to have worked for me.

In the SHOWTHREAD template, edit the following line:

From this:
<link rel="canonical" href="{vb:raw thread_url}" />

To this:
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.domain.com/forums/{vb:raw thread_url}" />

Even though you pass a url to facebook, they still scrape the page to get the url apparently. This fixes it.

When I "like" something on our site it just appears on facebook as "...likes yourdomain.com at yourdomain.com" rather than the specific title such as "...likes apples thread at yourdomain.com" - is this a permissions issue?

Moved this template modification to the appropriate forum.

Just installed this, works good however I have one issue.

The layout style won't stay set at Button_Count or Box_Count, it defaults to standard.

All I want is the Like Box and Counter, not the text (makes it to wide).

Code Below:

<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.MYFORUM.com/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}, {vb:raw pageinfo_post}}#post{vb:raw post.postid}&amp;
send=false&amp;
layout=button_count&amp;
width=85&amp;
show_faces=false&amp;
action=like&amp;
colorscheme=light&amp;
font&amp;height=21" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:55px; height:21px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

Any ideas??

Hi,

This method is for adding the button to the first message only.

Is there a way to add LIKE button to ALL posts in a thread?

Thanks :)

Plus one on the above question, but this iframe, has to be moved to the right side of the postbit window, above the postbit content perhaps.

I've managed to put it under the thread title, but that's not where it should be, if we were to have it in every post.

Hi,

I managed to add LIKE button to the post.

BUT - I want to add LIKE button to EACH post in thread so users can like specific answer/comment and NOT the WHOLE thread.

How can it be done?

Thanks :)

[sv1cec]

I am looking at doing the same thing. Putting a like button in every post, but so far I haven't managed to do it. I am waiting for some help in here, if I manage to do it, I'll let you know.

[Savy83]

anyone successful with getting on every post?

[ramesh_umk3]

Remove template condition to get on every post just add facebook like code to template

Stupid question but if we are serving ads in that spot, this won't work, right?
