Hello there,

So, I'm integrating this module to my site and running some test. For what I have seen, the "like" button only shows up for users already logged in the website via facebook (I have "drupal for facebook" running and apparently working, so the facebook connect feature should be done).

Shouldn't it be shown to any user so everyone that has a facebook account can click on it?

This module does not need 'drupal for facebook' to work. The like button should show up for anonymous and logged in user. Probably there is some conflicts between two modules. Try fb_social in a clean install and feel free to report back.
thanks!

Thanks for your response,

I thought about that, but I need the DFF module since is the way I found to make the Connect work. If I don't use DFF I have to install anyways Facebook Connect... does that one work fine with Facebook Social Plugins Integration?

Hello all,

I tried to add the facebook social plugings module to my website...
Should I make any changes to the code or simply add the module to the site...If that is the case how come I can link my facebook page to the website..I am really confused in which part of the like module or any module I should make changes in order to link these plugins to my page on Facebook..
Actually I can see the like button appear along with all the nodes but when I click them there is no activity going on...
Please help me out..I am really confused with this matter..

Hi,

I was having exactly the same problem as the others describe so I decided to hack out my own solution. I've never done any work with Drupal extensions so no-idea if this solution is a bad one (but it works):

Commenting out the lines:

if (!user_access('access fb like widget'))
break;

in fb_social_like.module.php (lines 69-70) fixes the problem so that the like button appears even when not logged in.

Hope that is helpful to anyone out there who just wants this working.

I would highly discourage anybody from making the change suggested in #5. Instead, go to your Drupal permissions settings and enable the like button for anonymous and authenticated users, so everybody can use it.

Personally, I question the wisdom of locking the button behind a permissions check (does anybody really want to prevent people from Liking their pages?), but that's a question for another issue, as this started as an issue about Facebook authentication, not Drupal permissions.

There is no permissions involved in the beta5 version.
thanks!

I have the same problem. The like button and the comments box is not in nodes for anonymouse users, for logged users work perfect. I don't see any permission for fb_social. Where more i can see?
thanks

Fixxed.
Facebook 'Like' button doesn't show in Internet Explorer http://drupal.org/node/791228

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.
