Title: Facebook Block with show faces
Post by: scotchmonster on July 08, 2015, 03:19:28 AM
Hi all,
I have had an html block on my front page and its been fantastic.
Basically I had a right hand html block with 3 faces across and around 10 faces down with a like button

Now I just have a like button with half a face.

If anyone could help me to get this working I'd be really gratefull
This is the new code from facebook that doesnt work;

The new code supplied by facebook is <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_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3&appId=767399396641102";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

<div class="fb-like" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/TheJetSkiClub" data-width="185" data-height="650" data-layout="standard" data-action="like" data-show-faces="true" data-share="true"></div>

Hi, you didn't say when the block stopped to work. Did you do anything? Because otherwise it can be Facebook-side and we can't fix FB bugs (I wouldn't be surprised that they changed their api or something, they love to do it).

1. A link to your forum, would be most useful.
2. I see you have not updated the version of SMF in your profile, so please let us know what version you are running. ;)
3. Besides what my finely trouted partner said, there could also be a server issue at FB, causing the api not to load fully. When load the page, does it stay loading? You can check the browser's stop button to see if it's still active and the loading bar.

Hi there, thanks for the replies.

We're using 2.3.5 and yes Facebook did change their app about 2 weeks ago and the new one is terrible. I was just wondering if anyone has a way of setting up the show faces with the new Facebook app.

The url is www.thejetski.club

I have no idea I'm afraid other than asking them, but they won't reply as there is no Facebook support. I totally gave up on integrating Facebook with my forum, due to their "superstar" behavior of doing what they want when they want, completely ignoring bridges/plugins/whatever, not caring about breaking them at all.
