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.

HTML Code:

<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

Yeah, it is not showing in my recent activities on my profile which this mod is supposed to be able to do that if you look at the second image.

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.

Perhaps with a specially condition

PHP Code:


		
			
<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

PHP Code:


		
			
$templatevalues['forumid'] = $forumid;
vB_Template::preRegister('header', $templatevalues);

not testet. is an idea

Uninstalled because a lot of users access the forum from their workplace, where facebook is blocked.

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.

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?

It looks like this will be redundant on version 4.04, but I've enjoyed using it for the interim. Thank you for a great mod.

Any help with adding this Like button to only threads with certain prefixes?

For those trying to figure this out, use this code for the CMS articles section. What is shown in the first post wont work.

Code:

<!-- 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=450&amp;action=like&amp;font=tahoma&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:visible; width:450px; height:25px;"></iframe>

<!-- / Facebook Like -->

Can't you just change the YOURSITE text to {vb:raw vb.options url} ?? or whatever the code is. it will wol

the number of likes a thread gets is going to dictate the next thread started on my site. BUT, i do not want to force people to connect to facebook to "like" something. So:

Is there any way to allow non facebook connected member to also "like" something? Thanks!

This has to work with facebook? What If I dont wanyt my facebook having links to these posts/ Can't it just be for the forum?

adreen

07-29-2010 08:55 AM

some problems though:

1. only users with facebook can 'Like'
2. like only appears on the first post of the thread
3. after i click the link in facebook after it was integrated, it came out like this

No Topik specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

i checked the links, if i remove a character in this case '=', it'd work.
or else can't.

a lot of things you have to fix.
meanwhile i have to uninstall the mod.

Forgive me if this was already addressed; I didn't get anything when I searched.

Using method #1, is there a way to reduce the size of the margin it creates on the right side of the post?

Thanks.

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:
HTML Code:


<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}&layout=button_count&show_face s=true&width=450&action=like&colorsche me=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:px"></iframe>


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-lik...95/#post265997

Hello... I can't get this to work on a Blog post.
Neither can I make it appear on a CMS Article.
In the threads, it all works fine.

Should the procedure over here be used?
Or only what's mentioned on the vBSEO site? (we're running vBseo)

Should I do both things? What's mentioned here, and then what's mentioned over in vBSEO.com?

I'm at a loss... not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

I am currently running on vb 4.06 and have the facebook connect enabled and set up. I just HATE the location of the ("Like" Be the first of your friends to like this), which is above the first post on the page and off to the right.

I would really like it to be like in the example #3. How would you suggest I do this?

washingtonboise

11-21-2010 07:21 PM

At the bottom of posts would be an excellent location. (It's at that point that a user will know if they actually like what they just finished reading.)

A couple of things:
1) Instead of it being per thread, can there be a like button per post?
2) My site is in this format: www.DOMAIN.com/forums/showthread...
For some reason, when I put href=http://www.DOMAIN.com/forums/{vb:link thread, {vb:raw thread}}, it doesn't work and I get an error in the FB link. The keyword "forums" is missing from the URL and it incorrectly looks like this: http://www.DOMAIN.com/showthread...
If I put anything else except "forums", like "forum", then the URL with that word shows up.

Any ideas on why my URL wouldn't be properly generated?
TIA!
