For what it's worth, I've been having problems installing the Like button even before I found this mod. I pretty much did everything they instructed at Facebook before I read the install instructions here, and it appears to be the same problem. "Like" does not like vBulletin threads. At least not vB3 threads.

Code:

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.YOURDOMAIN/forums/showthread.php$session[sessionurl]?t=$threadid" &amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=350&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=dark&amp;height=30" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:350px; height:30px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

edit YOURDOMAIN to be your web domain...

Additionally I put it in an if tag:

Code:

<if condition="!in_array($GLOBALS[forumid], array(2, 3, 6, 15, 24, 45))">

 -iframe code- 

</if>

Where the numbers are the forum id's of private forums that aren't viewable by guests and therefore useless to add a 'like' button too.

Finally I moved this to under where the page navigation menu would show if it was a multiple page thread on the showthread template... I moved the <td></td> tags out of the built in <if> statement so the table will be there regardless of whether the page nav menu is displayed... the code for everything now looks like:

Code:

        <td align="$stylevar[right]"><if condition="$show['pagenav']">$pagenav</if>

<if condition="!in_array($GLOBALS[forumid], array(2, 3, 6, 15, 24, 45))">

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.YOURDOMAIN/forums/showthread.php$session[sessionurl]?t=$threadid" &amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=350&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=dark&amp;height=30" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:350px; height:30px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

</if>

</td>

Anyway this all works fine (for me), you can see a demo at:

Okay, made the updated changes. Still giving me the iframe error, even though I'm not using an iframe. Really, I don't see any reason why this shouldn't be working. Everything is as Facebook says it should be done.

What is your site URL?

I've implemented facebook plugins in dozens of sites and they all seem to be working great.

I believe some javascript on your site is interfering with facebook plugins.

Are these random numbers made up by us or are they generated somewhere? How many digits- does it matter?

Those numbers are your facebook profile ID, you'll find this in the address bar when you sign in to facebook.

If you have assigned your profile a custom "name", please read this:

Replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
<br /> 

<!-- Facebook Comment --> 

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid],array(2,6,7,5))"><else /><div align="center"> 

<fb:comments numposts="3" width="800"></fb:comments></if></div> 

<!-- / Facebook Comment -->

With:

PHP Code:


		
			
<br /> 

<!-- Facebook Comment --> 

<div align="center"> 

<fb:comments numposts="3" width="800"></fb:comments></if></div> 

<!-- / Facebook Comment -->

Now all members and guests can see and write in the comment box.

Thanks for the reply, but I guess my question is why would I only want to show the comment box to guests? I think I'm missing something because wouldn't everyone want a comment to be entered by anyone, member or guest alike? If I don't show the comment box to registered users, like you originally coded, then how would registered users leave comments- is there some other way for them?:confused:

BirdOPrey5

You say:

Quote:

Code:

<br /> 

<!-- Facebook Comment --> 

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid],array(2,6,7,5))"><else /><div align="center">

<fb:comments numposts="3" width="800"></fb:comments></if></div>

<!-- / Facebook Comment -->

*This will place the Facebook Comment box below the last post, you may change the width to your liking.
*The comment box will only be shown to guests.

But that code shows it to anyone not in the registered users, mods, admins, or supermods group. Many people have additional usergroups besides these. If you really only want to show to guests you should use:

Code:

<br /> 

<!-- Facebook Comment --> 

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid],array(1))"><div align="center">

<fb:comments numposts="3" width="800"></fb:comments>

</div></if>

<!-- / Facebook Comment -->

You also have the start of the <div> inside the conditional and the end of it outside, so the </div> will always be output even if the beginning <div> isn't.
I'm starting to think this is something different then the box where users enter a comment to be posted to their page- maybe this is where comments are left for the thread it's showing?
EDIT- I see this is a completely different thing then simply the 'Like' button... OK, not sure if I need it but will try.

One more thing- I tried this in IE, FF, Chrome, Safari, and Opera- and it worked in all of them but Opera- in Opera I just get the 'loading' graphic and the comment box never appears- but I don't care about Opera anyway- just an FYI.

You may not need it, others may.

Personally, i would recommend it, why force someone to register if he/she is only going to post once and never come back? You may "lose" that one registration but in return you will get 3 more to replace him/her.

Let visitors drive you more traffic. :D

Yes, that is correct :up:

Hehe, that, too, is correct.

Also I agree with your logic of showing it only to guests but I would suggest also at least the admin, if not mods, in case there is a comment that needs to be removed- I don't usually visit my board as a guest and I may not even be aware of a 'bad' comment otherwise.

OK, I made a comment with the comment box, it showed up on Facebook but after I left the page and returned to it the comment on the page was gone.

Actually, I just installed the Wibiya toolbar, so I'm think going with the Like button on that. Thanks, though.

Make sure you replace YOUR PROFILE ID with your actual id:

If you don't know what your ID is, log in to facebook and look in the address bar, you will see a set of random numbers.

Delete that meta tag, you don't need it.

PHP Code:


		
			
<meta property="fb:admins" content="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000107178422"/>

Replace the above with:

Everything else seems to be fine, except for the like button which you haven't added.
