Hi

I enabled this module, add contentype for like button (blog, and some others), but nothing is shown for me on the nodes.
Doesn't matter if the like button is in the node or in the links.
Here would be like button, but it isn't: http://www.somvprahe.sk/blog/truli/pravda

Are there any other necessary steps? There are no permissions for this module, so I am really lost why it doesn't work at all for me.

thanks
Igor

I found that problem is with IE 8. With Firefox it works nice.

You (in fact module) should include this code in page.tpl.php to work with IE. Do not remove other xml related things in html tag if exist, just add this two xmlns defs then.

<html xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/"
      xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">

Hope this solves.

@chawl thanks for the tip. The module actually cant easily add that information in the page.tpl.php

Yes ferdi, sorry for the typo, I meant the documentation in fact. Tx for a great module btw.

igorik CreditAttribution: igorik commented

thanks chawl, now it works for me. But in IE 8 it is shown in the node before the content, and in the Firefox, it is show after the content. I suppose that in the Firefox it is right.
Any ideas why it is wrong in IE?
You can test it on the same url: http://www.somvprahe.sk/blog/truli/pravda

thanks

By the way, I think IEs are right for the first time in the history #792192: Like button shows up in a different place in IEs than others

Even a broken clock shows the right time twice a day. I think this is a JS issue that FB should fix.

Is the documentation lacking or I am not doing something correctly? My "like" buttons do not show either in IE or Firefox. Here are the steps I took:

1. Installed and enabled the module(s).
2. Enter the application ID for my site, gotten from Facebook Developers site, Adjusted all the settings under "administer".
Still do not see any buttons on my site. I do see the fb:like tags in appropriate places though.
Where else should I look to troubleshoot?

The site is www.victortsaran.net.

Thanks,
Victor

I'm guessing (from #804994: Can I get user email and password when "map account" is enable?) that you have enabled some other drupal modules that are using the old version of fb api. See http://drupal.org/node/784872#comment-2909838

If you are using drush to enable the module, you might want to look at the admin/build/modules page and you need to enable the other modules associated with the fb_social module. There are 3 other modules that needs to be enabled.

sorry to re-open but there is still an issue with this solution.

YES - adding this to the top of page.tpl 

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="<?php print $language->language ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir ?>" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">

does allow the FB Like button to show in IE8 but it causes IE8 to popup a XSS warning.

Compel’s picture

Compel CreditAttribution: Compel commented

I don't get page errors.... or the LIKE button in IE8.

Everything is working in FF.

I tried the snipped versions in #2 and in #17 with no luck. I can understand how this might not be possible to address in the module itself, but if there is an undocumented fix it would be helpful to document it.

For purposes of testing, I am using 6.19 fb_social.info,v 1.3.2.1 2010/07/11

my issue with FB Like and XSS was caused by incompatibility with with this module and the FB Connect module. This issue has since been fixed (not sure of commit status) with an update to the FB Connect module.

not sure if you are seeing the same issue.

Re #20 This may sound obvious, but apparently wasn't to me: check user permissions. I was reminded of this as I run Admin in FireFox so I can see what's going on and Authenticated_User in EE. Authenticated_User didn't have permission set to access the Like button.

Fix #17 worked for me. Be sure you are adding it to your opening tag. I've just had some problems with getting this fix to work, but then I noticed I din't had have enough coffee, I'd added it to my DOCTYPE. Dow!

When I push the search button i get the search resultpage for about 1 second then I´m redirected towards a wsod page. Checked the errors and its the following (not an exact copy but my translation so there might be some differenses)

Normally the like button shows on IE if the page template is modified similar to #2. Closing this ticket.

Actually added the code to the html tags, but nothing works.
This is in html tag.

No permission problem, cause checking this under admin FF works, IE not.

I'm having a problem using this with an Artisteer generated theme. I'm not sure exactly what I should add and where. This:

xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/"
xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"

looks a lot different to this:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="<?php print $language->language ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir ?>" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">

Here's the first 20 or so line of my code without adding anything. 

<?php

	$vars = get_defined_vars();
	$view = get_artx_drupal_view();
	$view->print_head($vars);

	if (isset($page))
		foreach (array_keys($page) as $name)
				$$name = & $page[$name];
	$art_sidebar_left = isset($sidebar_left) && !empty($sidebar_left) ? $sidebar_left : NULL;
	$art_sidebar_right = isset($sidebar_right) && !empty($sidebar_right) ? $sidebar_right : NULL;
	if (!isset($vnavigation_left)) $vnavigation_left = NULL;
	if (!isset($vnavigation_right)) $vnavigation_right = NULL;
	$tabs = (isset($tabs) && !(empty($tabs))) ? '<ul class="arttabs_primary">'.render($tabs).'</ul>' : NULL;
	$tabs2 = (isset($tabs2) && !(empty($tabs2))) ?'<ul class="arttabs_secondary">'.render($tabs2).'</ul>' : NULL;
?>

<div id="art-main">
<div class="art-sheet">

    <div class="r"></div>
    <?php if (!empty($navigation)) : ?>
    <?php echo render($navigation); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

So, how should my page.tpl.php code look AFTER I add the Facebook Social code?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Not sure if this will help anyone but I was also having issues with this even after trying all the suggested fixes.

The way I got it to work was to remove all print_r() debug code I had. The moment I removed it, it worked perfectly fine without any errors - in all browsers! Must be something to do with the headers being altered before output or something along those lines...

Anyway, hopefully this helps someone else out!

Works fine in FF, Chrome IE8 but not in IE6 & 7 and Safari

IE7 Reports the problem lies here in the last line of this code

     window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
       FB.init({
         appId: "00000000000000",

         xfbml: true,
         channelUrl: "http://bla-bla.com/fb_social/channel",

It is having problem with either the } or the ) in that last line

Same as #33 here. I have a Zen sub-theme that doesn`t have the page.tpl file.
Where should I add the code then?

harris_david’s picture

harris_david CreditAttribution: harris_david commented

I was able to make this work in ie 6 & 7 by removing a comma in the fb_social.module file. I removed the comma after the channelUrl line ;

$output .= "

window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId: " . drupal_to_js($appid) . ", status: true, cookie: true, xfbml: true, channelUrl: " . drupal_to_js($channel_url) . " }); Once I did this, the buttons began appearing in 6 and 7 (I.E 8 was never a problem). I'm using Adobe Browser Labs for testing, so I can't speak to the Java errors.
harris_david’s picture

harris_david CreditAttribution: harris_david commented

As for the Zen Sub-theme, you just need to copy the page.tpl.php file from the Zen Templates folder into the root of your sub-theme.

Zen >> Templates >> page.tpl.php

You may have to clear caches to recognize the new file. Also, clear caches after making changes to the page.tpl.php as well.

You should check how metatag does it:

function metatag_opengraph_preprocess_html(&$variables) {
  // The RDF module adds the Open Graph namespace itself.
  // @see rdf_rdf_namespaces()
  if (!module_exists('rdf')) {
    $variables['rdf_namespaces'] .= "\n  xmlns:og=\"http://ogp.me/ns#\"";
  }
}

Version: 6.x-1.0-beta8 » 7.x-2.0-beta4

What I've found to cause problems is loading the FB Javascript at the bottom of the page causes the button to not load on Firefox (confirmed in Firefox 8, possibly other versions too). Changing fb_social_page_alter() from:

  $page['page_bottom']['fb_social'] = array(
    '#markup' => $output 
  );

to

  $page['page_top']['fb_social'] = array(
    '#markup' => $output 
  );

makes it work. FYI the Facebook JS API documentation specifically states

The best place to put this code is right after the opening <body> tag.

@ferdi: Sorry for changing the status.

Further research uncovered the fact that the themer on our site had munged up the CSS which was causing our problems with the block hiding. I think everyone should try testing the fblike button plain & without any CSS tweaks in all browsers before blaming the plugin.
