Hi,

Setting the Facebook Like widget to "Recommended" on the widget settings page (admin/settings/service_links/widgets) doesn't seem to have any impact on the generated widget. That is, the displayed widget says "Like" both before and after I change this setting to "Recommended".

The widget services module uses "recommended" as an action for the Facebook Like widget. However, my reading of the Facebook Like button documentation suggests that the proper action is "recommend". Manually setting the service_links_fl_action variable to 'recommend' changes the text displayed on the widget to 'Recommend', which seems to be the desired behavior.

Thanks for the Service Links module!
-G

This patch worked for me, although I also had failed to check "Show Facebook Like link Widget Services" on /admin/settings/service_links/services. Checking the box was what got the widget working with the "recommend" functionality (vs. the built-in share button). Perhaps that tip will save some time for others who come across this page while searching for the service links facebook widget in the future.

I confirm that it works. Also, it is so simple and straightforward that believe it is ready to be committed.
