The new VB 4 has the Like feature on all the forums but how can we place a LIKE button for the actual facebook company?

So no matter where people are browsing, they can click LIKE from the header and it will like their forum/business fan page.

Has this been done, if so how?

It's very easy. you can follow Facebook's own instructions...

here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like

There's also at least 2 Facebook Like mods for 3.8 (that would work on any 3.x version) in the mods section- although they instruct you to use the showthread or postbit template so you can like the thread or post rather than the whole forum, either can instead be used in the header. Plus the official Facebook site gives instructions so you can specify the URL shared by the Like button, you can make it your forum homepage if you prefer.
