www.snowdaycolorado.com

I think you'll have to edit the Navbar template for that.

I'd like the extra buttons to appear along side the default vB 4.2 Facebook Like location. But I think that's too difficult if you also want it to appear on a bunch of other pages besides threads and blogs.

It was easy actually, I just had to remove the default styling and add my own and it fits nicely. Still playing with it on the test site though.

What's the difference as far as how the numbers are displayed for the different FB button options? For example, does the "Like" button with count only display likes from clicking that button on my forum, or does it count likes from clicking the button AND likes from people on Facebook.com?

The second one. You can only like something one time, so you want your users to like it as well. This will help your forum get more exposure from you users friends.

Awesome, I was hoping it would count likes from hitting the button on my forum AND people liking the forum's page on FB proper. Do I need to setup some kind of API with FB to make sure it shows counts from both places?

Edit: Looks like it will count them on different browsers without the FB Connect enabled. On the subject, is there a benefit to enabling the FB connect?

No, if they are going to use any of the options it will ask them to sign in at FB, Twitter, etc. If they don't have an account they have the option to create one.

So what's the point of using all the built in FB stuff?

You have to look at it a couple of ways. First if they did not use FB connect, then FB doesn't know who is selecting the recommend so a small window opens one time. After they are signed in Vb and FB knows who the user is. They have to want to select that they like it.

A good thing to do is at the top of your sig place a comment like, "If you liked this post please recommend us to FB or Twitter!" You use this kind of mod to help draw attention to your forum. It doesn't mean all users will use it.

Ok. This text here worries me. I have the FB platform disabled in Vb.

Quote:

For best sharing results the Facebook Platform must be enabled and you must have a Facebook App ID entered in your Facebook Settings:

Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> Facebook Options

If you do not have the above settings enabled/filled in then the open graph data Facebook needs will not be provided by vBulletin. Facebook will still try to gather the required information from your page so the share should still work but it is not ideal.
