is there a way to change this string to the name of the website the post is shared from?

I changed the name of the App right now in FBShare by Service Links, if you want a custom app name apply the patch go to Adminster > Configuration > Service Links and switch to Widgets Tabs there are the info to build a custom Facebook App id for Facebook Share

patch won't work:

This may be crucial to most of you, but it's the first time i'm applying a patch,
the .patch is in the same directory as the .module
this is the error i get from terminal:

Roel-iMac:service_links roelwelters$ patch < service_links-2000510.patch
can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you should have used the -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

patch -p0 < service_links-2000510.patch

  1. Click on "create app" button;
  2. fill the form giving a name to the app and a namespace not yet used;
  3. solve the captcha ;
  4. disable the sandbox mode and take note of the application ID in the upper part of the page;
  5. Save the modifies;
  6. Done!

Hi,
now everytime i visit the site, the links are gone,
i have to log in,
go to admin/config/services/service-links

and the links are back.

Also the links are stacked, how do i put them on one line?

Kindest regards

Roel

is this related to anonymous user permissions? are you using some other social module?

here some suggestion to style the widgets links: http://servicelinks.altervista.org/?q=about/troubleshooting

I applied the patch
I made a facebook app
still the shared post says: Roel Welters heeft een link via FBShare by Service Links gedeeld.

you have to change the facebook app id in the service links configuration page... widgets tab... and go to facebook share settings

the patch is committed in dev so this should work without patch anymore if you have the latest dev

I did change the app id on the widgets tab, didnt work.
I'll start all over with the new dev version.
