Facebook quandary

The default Facebook widgets in Muse are:   Like, Follow and Comments
Recently, I launched a new website for an artist. The new site was built with Muse. www.matthewmenger.com
The site makes use of a custom Facebook icon. It was drawn with Illustrator to match the color scheme of the site. The image is linked to the artist's Facebook page...pretty basic stuff. With that in place, the artist asked to have a Facebook "like" button on the page.
My question is this... Is it unheard of to have two Facebook icons side-by-side? One which links to the Facebook account, and the other that functions as a "Like" button?
Is there an industry standard for this?
Thanks!

It actually isn't that uncommon as it actually serves two purposes.
One (your custom link): Sends the user to the FB page where they can like the Facebook page.
Two: The Like button allows them to like the page and also post a link on their timeline to the web page.
Not sure I would put them next to each other but that would be a design preference more than anything.

  • Can creating a seperate user protect my info on my device from Facebook?

    As someone who is still coming to terms with the rate of privacy degradation and technology I have concerns about using social media. My quandary is I believe morally & legally I do NOT have the right to give Facebook access to info from personal & business contacts that are on my device. Will setting up a seperate user resolve this issue.

    MMy apology. My intention is to keep my info from being accessed. I wish to limit Facebook to as little amount of info as possible. I refrain from any sharing. I have been informed by a pro photographer to keep my pics to a minimal size, Kb if possible. I am of the opinion the agreement Facebook requires allowing access to ones device is asking someone to do something illegal. I have Not been given permission by all person on my device to allow their particulars to be accessed or used by others. This is especially for business info. In Australia new laws protect images of children so I see this too as an issue. I closed my FB account because Of my concerns And after FB used my mobile to send msgs deleted my funds so I couldn't make a call. I promptly removed FB from all mobile devices. I am an Aussie living in the arctic and FB is very good for keeping in touch with family and friends. But has gone too far and is now only interested in making money. Good idea gone bad. I have applied for proton mail. I am hoping Apple has or will produce hardware& software that allows us to protect that which we choose to keep private. I still use external hard drives for storage & only use cloud based storage when necessary for work commitments,ie Dropbox.
    hence I wonder if having a user just for social media will protect all other data on that device from FB. i am considering a seperate iPad for the same purpose as both my partner & I have families abroad. New technology can be so useful however most of us don't understand the implications or know fundamental strategies or ways to protect ourselves given our ignorance, my field is health, not IT.
    HOpe me this explains fully.

  • Facebook Scam Apple pages...who do I contact at Apple to tell them.

    https://www.facebook.com/ApplePr0ductGiveaways
    This is one of many Apple Scam pages saying they will give away
    a lot of Apple things.
    Its all a scam but I can't find who to tell.
    They are getting tens of thousands of 'Likers' as people think
    they are getting something....

    I believe the quandary here is that it was not an email. These are ads within the Facebook pages for which Facebook is responsible and, since they are in the business to make money (by selling advertising space and selling your information), they do not care about the legality of an ad as long as it was paid for.
    I just had to report two fraudulent transactions on one of my credit cards - and they were both for "advertising" processed and charged by Facebook. That is hilarious as I do not have (and refuse to have) an account there. I tried to find a way to contact them (and let Mr. Zuckerberg know what I think of that, LOL) and the only one I found is their physical address.
    @ RUTH2802:
    So, the best thing might be for you to put something on your page warning others about the scam. There is also some way to report something; however, I could not get there because I do not have an account and couldn't sign in. So see if you can find how to report fraud.

  • HT1338 I keep trying to post things to facebook via iphoto and everytime I try to set it up it tells me an error has occurred and to try again later. I try later and it still says this, it's been saying it for the past week now.

    What version of iPhoto?

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 for mac: export modules, facebook export module gives an error every time i try to sign in

    in the export module for facebook every time i click "sign in to facebook" it gives the following error: "An error occurred while request facebook connection"

    "An error occurred while request facebook connection"
    The export module has been discontinued in Bridge CC and as long as it has been there the option for social media has worked only for FB in a few countries. Due to rights management (as we where told) there where restrictions for most other countries. But if it did work for you in the past you should try click on FB in export module or use the tiny menu icon in the export panel for preferences and try to set up a new connection.

  • Facebook Notifications and email notifications on ...

    Hi
    Is that possible Facebook Notifications and email notifications on sleeping screen nokia 808 like it had on N9..
    On my 808 it shows only msgs and miscalls....any fix??
    Thanks

    not possible unless the app supports that behaviour. but email notifications and on notification lights has been broken on Symbian for a while, and as Symbian is in maintenance mode, is unlikely to see a fix, possibly ever.

    Hi, Ashneedshelp. Let's try to work it out. Aside from uninstalling and reinstallling those apps, you may also consider the steps given here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA143998. The page will work regardless of your location. Also, see if the apps are allowed to run in the background under the Battery Saver app. Keep us posted.

  • Facebook and skype notifications

    I have a lumia 920 and can't get fb and skype notifications work.
    The worked just after the installation of the apps, but then they stopped working.
    The apps are fine, I just don't see toast nor tile notifications.
    Any ideas? This isn't a borderline issue for a smartphone..
    Fabio

    I'm not talking about FB chat. That is ok on my phone.
    I'm referring to facebook notifications instead (comments, likes and so on):
    Me tile has too much limited functionalities (for instance no groups notifications..), thus I installed FB Microsoft app.
    In the app notifications are sometimes working. But most of the time I couldn't get them, even after a long time after their publishing.
    It seems to be a facebook app issue in this case, but is it possible on a smartphone to lack social functionalities like this? I'm not talking about minor socials web sites, but Facebook.
    The forum is plenty of topics describing exactly this issue, but no solutions yet.
    Does someone have any news?

  • How can I use more than one Facebook ID in Photos? (Plus, Flickr upload issues!)

    I'm having problems with the new Photos and ability to share images from the application. It seems I can only have my personal Facebook ID, and can't add a second ID (which is my business page, which I also like to post images to).
    Any idea how to add a Facebook Page ID?
    Also having major problems with Flickr. Seems inputting my user name (through System Preferences) does not match my actual user name in the Flickr app, so I can't upload images. UGH. (Why was this okay in iPhoto, but not now?) The only way to access Flickr is inputting your Yahoo ID, but if your Yahoo ID is different than your actual user name on Flickr, you're screwed.
    Any ideas? I tried deleting the profile, but I still can't input my Flickr name.
    Thanks.

    So, after trying to upload an album four times, it seems it finally kicked in/made the connection on Flickr. MAGIC.
    A second Facebook ID, however, remains a mystery.

  • How can I delete my old facebook account under a different name and password from settings?

    my old facebaook was hacked. I created a new account. I cannot post pictures from my iPad 4 to new facebook because I am using a new facebook account with a new password. the system is still storing my old facebook username.

    Assuming you are using the FaceBook app: Settings App > FaceBook > [your name] > Delete Account. Then sign in with your new account.

    My iPod touch is stuck in landscape view.  Even when held vertically if I open facebook or safari is rotates to landscape.  Have tried turning on and off, same results. Any ideas to fix?

    Try switching it back from landscape to vertical. Or, go to settings and see if you have any special setting turned on that enable only landscape view. Also, try hooking it up to your computer and charging it to see what happens.

  • How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its backround color from white to black just in my view not for all

    How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its background color from white to black just in my view, not for all. Cause I really hate some site with white background because as I read for an hour it aches my eyes but not on those with darker background color.

    You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.
