Getting closer Eric. Since the string is a link it must be embedded in the Facebook thumbs up image on a page to work. However, when the button image is clicked on, the viewer is taken to another page where the LIKE Box appears all by its lonely self.

Tested in both IE and FF. Same result.

Tried some other options today. I inserted the "my-site" version and the "my-page" version from above in this thread. Then added the "try this" version. The only one that remotely worked is the my-site version. Again, using IE and FF.

I now discovered that inserting the "LIKE" code into my page causes everything AFTER the code to disappear! Remove the code and the text or images return. Getting very frustrated! Social media is a big deal now and being able to offer links to the various sites is extremely important.

Hi Robert ...

Do I have on this page what you are after, at the bottom (I'm learning stuff as well)

This is the coding I have used... I think it works




personalised to me obviously , but I have this

HEADER OF HTML BOX
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

BODY OF HTML BOX
<div class="fb-like" data-send="true" data-width="450" data-show-faces="true" data-font="tahoma"></div>

Hiya Robert,

Most likely if things are disappearing it's because you don't have the tags inserted correctly or haven't closed some that need to be. check your code and also Steve's idea there too to make sure it's setup correctly

Missing iframe end tag in the facebook code. </iframe>

I'm having problems as well adding the like button to my website using VSD, Since Facebook did their update. The new code they gave is:
<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FFossilRidgeAnimalHospital&amp;width=90&amp;height=21&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;layout=button_count&amp;action=recommend&amp;show_faces=false&amp;send=false&amp;appId=384201941648818" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:90px; height:21px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

I put it in the HTML body section and publish nothing happens?

Did you look at your site after publishing?

Yes I have refreshed a few times now. There should be a box counter under the like us on facebook text: http://www.fossilridgeah.com/information.html

I see the recommend button.
Try this.
