How does Facebook like button work?

Hi,
I want my Facebook like button to "like" a page on Facebook, but when I enter a URL it doesn't work. Do I just go to the Facebook page I want to link to and copy what is in the browser dialog box there? Sometimes is has numbers in it. Do I need to be an administrator of the page to do this or something?
My website is www.layeredstyle.com
I want my Facebook like button to go to a facebook page called "Layered"
I have tried entering www.facebook.com/layered
Thank you

Hi again,
Sorry about this, but I'm not seeing how to make this work yet. My client
says everything is on for all followers, and when I put in the URL I just
get an error message when clicking on the button on the website.
I also have problems with the widget jumping around on the page....it
doesn't always stay where I put it unless there is nothing around it, like
the box can't be touching anything else. Is that normal?
The URL I'm putting into the Facebook widget is
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Layered/555042077944967
If I check the current page, the button "likes" the website page, not the
Facebook page.
Thanks

  • How does this radio button work?

    The attached code is from LabVIEW7.1 example. I just can't figure out how does the 'green' button connect with the 'case green'? Do I need to change the properties of the radio button?

    Just make the radio control a bit larger and drop in another boolean control (pick ANY!) from the palette. Repeat as needed.
    The radio button control automatically ensure that only the last clicked boolean is true. (see attached, LabVIEW 7.1)

  • How does RSS SUBSCRIBE button work?

    Hello folks,
    I am wondering, how do I input the information about my RSS feed, (like URL, etc.) into RSS SUBSCRIBE button. I insert this RSS BUTTON onto my podcast page, that's great. But how that button knows what URL of that feed is? What I mean is, don't I need to assign the information about my feed to that button somehow? I just don't understand, how would viewer be able to subscribe to my podcast by clicking on RSS SUBSCRIBE button when I did not assign feed URL to it. I have tried to find something in INSPECTOR, but I did not find any tools how to do this.
    Thank you so much for any input.
    Cheers

    Hi Tom,
    yes I had tried it on actual website, however, it was just very quick test, because I have that site for something completely different. But this is the scenario of what happened:
    website URL is www.icebergfilms.com
    on that server I have a folder named: PODCAST and inside there is the feed called: bcoutdoor.xml
    All podcast episodes are also inside this folder.
    So when I paste this URL: http://www.icebergfilms.com/podcast/bcoutdoor.xml into iTunes, it uploads and plays that podcast fine. But when I publish my site (into the folder) with iWeb, typing www.icebergfilms.com into that box, and then upload it onto that server, the feed does not work if you click on SUBSCRIBE BUTTON.
    That's what does not make sense to me, how would iWeb know to look for bcoutdoor.xml if I don't actually give it that information. (unless it just automaticaly looks for any .xml file on the server and makes link to it)
    I would expect to have some tool in iWeb, how to assign ot attach that feed to that SUBSCRIBE BUTTON, but there in none.
    Tom I really apologize for being such dummy and thank you again for your patience with me.
    Cheers

    select * from string_test where test_str like '%' || chr(32) || '%';But, i don't understand how this works. Won't the percent sign in single quotes ('%') be considered a literal ?

  • Facebook like button does not work in my FF 32.0.2

    Dear FF support-team,
    I've got a strange problem with the Facebook like button (in German called: "Gefällt mir") on my site and after some trying around myself, I need your knowledge, as mine seems not to be enough. :-)
    I have got a Facebook-Like button built in on my Wordpress-Site: See Reference: http://www.lifechange.at/kammel-scheck/ (at the bottom of the page).
    When I try to click it and I'm not logged in to Facebook, he opens up the popup and asks me to login. So far so got, but when I log in and try to "Like", he just opens the popup and closes it automatically after half a second and shows no like.
    When I open the "Like-Button"-Bar in an extra Tab (right click on Like-Button and select Current-Frame-->Open Frame in new Tab), then the Like-Button seems to work correctly.
    I have already cecked against all installed add-ons (deactivated completely, tested, reactivated). Especially AdBlockPlus. But I have deactivated AdBlockPlus on Facebook and on my Domain lifechange.at.
    Then I checked, if the Like-It - Link to Facebook was "https://" and not just "http://". That's also ok.
    On every other browser (Chrome, IE, Opera...) the Like-It Button works fine.
    And what's also interesting: the other FB-Button ("Share" ("Teilen") - Button) works fine even in Firefox.
    So you see, I will be lost without your help, for which I ask politely.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Greetz, Hannes

    Ahh, I forgot to mention: The "Google+" - Button also doesn't work. In all the other Browsers, it does. Thx, Hannes

  • TS4443 Facebook 'like' button not working in iBooks

    Hi,
    For some reason the Facebook 'like' button does not seem to work or do anything when in the iBooks store. When selecting the ratings and reviews tab the Facebook button that appears above the review section seems not to do anything? I've tried on both my iphone and ipad running ios 7.
    Can anyone please help?

    Hello jimmyfingers13,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the Facebook Like button is not working correctly in the iBooks app. I have a few recommendations to help troubleshoot the issue here.
    First, close all the apps that are running in the background with this article named:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, restart your device with this article then test again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next re install the iBooks app from the App store:
    6. Reinstall the affected app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
    Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the app and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you may be asked to purchase the app again. Learn more about downloading previously purchased items.
    From: iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store

    All the best,

    Hi KT,
    That was helpful, but I'm still having problems.
    I've plonked a Facebook logo on the page.
    BUT I can't seem to give it a hyperlink to my Facebook page.
    When I select the logo and then use the tool bars or the box thingy. It won't allow me to paste in the URL.
    It looks a bit ugly having a Facebook logo and the text of the URL beside it.
    Is there a way of making the Facebook logo have a hyperlink to its URL so you just click on the logo and it takes you to the facebook page.
    regards

  • Facebook like button integration after Facebooks July '13 migration

    I am trying to add a like button to blog posts at jayowenhouse.com. I am following the instructions here
    http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/add-social-media.html#main_Obtaining_the_plugin_code_
    Even using {tag_itemurl_withhost} the "like" button "likes" the entire domain not the individual blog post. It looks like this facebook social plugin update has messed up BC's system for displaying like buttons, comments etc. I am experiencing the same issue with the tweet button and facebook comments. Maybe Im doing something wrong..
    The Facebook developer page reads,
    "After July 2013 migration, the Like button required an absolute URL in the href parameter."
    The code in the tutorial does not have the absolute URL. How can I make my "like" buttons like individual blog posts with the absolute URL in the code that facebook gives me?
    I would appreciate any insight.

    I'm assuming your facebook module code looks like this then:
    {module_facebooklike,moduleTemplateGroup="Default",language="en_US",url="{tag_itemurl_withhost}",layout="standard",showFaces="true",width="300",verb="like",font="",colorScheme="light",s end=""}
    If this is not working i might suggest looking at the source code of the page you want to do this on. Check in the <head> tag and see if you have any <meta property="og:url" /> tags where the url provided is anything other than the specific url you want to like. If you do have such tag, remove it from your template, and only use it on pages you need the facebook like to work.
    If it's still not working I would suggest looking into http://www.addthis.com. It's worked better for me than the Business Catalyst social modules.
    I hope this is helping.

  • Facebook LIKE button(s)

    Hi All,
    I've been trying to use Muse's Social Widgets specifically the Facebook Like Button. I generate it put when exported as html the button is none apparent. So I tried via Facebook's developers page to generate and paste the code, it still doesn't work.
    Can someone tell me if they successfully placed a Facebook Like button and how they did it?
    Thanks a lot again!

    Facebook's embed code doesn't work when viewed over the 'file' protocol, which is what you're doing if you export to a local folder and then open the .html file in your browser. It should work if you use 'preview in browser' from Muse or 'Preview' because Muse hosts the html files over the 'http' protocol. It should also work if you publish to a temporary BC site, or publish to your live BC site, or upload to your non-BC host and view the site over http.

  • Trying to add Facebook like button to site

    Hi
    I'm having a bit of a nightmare
    I'm trying to add a Facebook like button with a direct link to like my facebook page
    I have read several posts on here regarding this saying how easy it is just copy & paste the code onto a html widget in iWeb
    Nothing I try seems to work
    I'm copying or have copied all the code into the html snippet but no matter what i try i cannot get it to work
    I noticed that most of the posts on this are a bit old 2010 ETC
    Has there been a change since these posts & has anyone managed to do it recently
    Any help here wold be great
