Problem with Facebook Like Box

The IndiBlogger forum is now a read-only archive. Every public discussion is still here to read, but new topics and replies are closed.

My facebook like box which previously showed faces, suddenly started showing only like and send buttons(changed my template, can this be a reason?).. I tried adding new code, but now the new code is not getting saved... Even after saving the template, pressing Back button pops up with the message,"You have unsaved changes that will be lost".  Can somebody please help me with this??

Edited
Reason: Facebook Like Box

I dont see any like box on ur site.  What exactly is the problem.  Widgets do not cause a problem if you add them in layouts but if you had added it in the template edit button then they are effected.

Meghana,

Go to Layout -> Add a gadget and add the below code. Replace this part in the code - http://www.facebook.com/myyatradiary - with your own FB page address.

<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=http://www.facebook.com/myyatradiary&amp;width=300&amp;height=248&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;show_faces=true&amp;border_color&amp;stream=false&amp;header=false&amp;" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:300px; height:248px;" ></iframe>

Do let us know if it worked. Smile

Meghana it should work as Artijee has given above, I will only elaborate a litte go to layout > click on add a gadget > choose html from the gadgets list > and copy paste the Artijiee code replacing your own facebook page.

Oh yes Meghana, you will have to choose HTML/ Javascript widget from the list. Thanks Vijay for pointing that out. :)

Even after saving the template, pressing Back button pops up with the message,"You have unsaved changes that will be lost"

Sometimes, even after saving, the messages '.... unsaved changes....' appears. You can safely ignore it. 

suddenly started showing only like and send buttons

The like and share buttons that are shown are for pages on your blog and not your FB page. They have been added by the template.

Follow the instructions given by Arti and Vijay. Smile
