Adding 'Join Group' button in wordpress website - facebook

I have a wordpress website and I have added my facebook group feeds to my wordpress site using custome facebook feed plugin. Now I need to add a 'Join Group' button to my website along with the group members face just like the facebook page like button. I need to embed my facebook group like that. Is there any way to do so? I have googled but couldn't find anything useful.

Share the group to your Facebook page, click embed post, and copy the code over to Wordpress. This will give you the entire header and join button in Wordpress. I know this is an old post but maybe useful info for someone.

Like button for Facebook page shows generic Facebook description in News Feed

I want a Like button on my web site that Likes my Facebook profile (rather than my web page), so that when a user clicks it they subscribe to my Facebook posts.
I've created the Like button using the tool at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/
Further down that page there is an FAQ entry:
Can I link the Like button to my Facebook page?
Yes. Simply specify the URL of your Facebook page in the href
parameter of the button.
So, I've edited the href parameter to point to my Facebook page. eg:
https://www.facebook.com/myfacebookid
When a user clicks the Like button it has the desired effect. The user ends up having Liked my Facebook page. This is easily verified by the user going to my Facebook profile and checking that the Like button has changed to Liked.
But. When the user clicks the Like button, and entry appears in their News Feed with a generic Facebook description. ie:
Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and
others who work, study and live around them. People use Facebook to
keep up with friends, upload an unlimited number of photos, post links
and videos, and learn more about the people they meet.
I don't want a generic post about Facebook to appear. I want the description to relate to my Facebook account and/or web site.
Normally, I could modify this behavior with the Opengraph og: description tag, but as the page in the href is a Facebook page and not my own, I can't control the Opengraph tags.
I'm pretty sure that this was working okay before I enabled timeline for my account, so maybe this is a timeline bug?
So, how do I add a Like button which a) Likes my Facebook profile rather than one of my own web pages, and b) Posts a description of my Facebook profile rather than give a generic Facbook description?
Are all your fields in the info part of your page filled in, and/or completed? I just tested your theory and it seemed to work as expected, only thing is I know all fields in "info" are filled it. Give that a try.
This may happen if you have filled invalid/incomplete/wrong og tags in past and later changed them. Facebook's cache creates problem sometime.
Try putting all the entries (i.e. all og tags) and then debug them here http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug. This debugger gives a detailed info about the url with og tags and also clears the cache for you.
This should solve the problem.
You have 3 important fields that used on page opengraph: Name,Description,Profile Image.
They are used when some one post your link on Facebook, or Google or some else web service that handle opengraph.
Actually, the suggested answers currently do not work and there is an open bug / ticket on Facebook for it. Up to now, there's no fix.
The problem is that you can not use simply https://www.facebook.com/myfacebookid. You should copy and paste the exact page URL. If you have a low number of likes it would look something like https://www.facebook.com/pages/[YourPageName]/[Your page Id]/, and this is the URL that you should use at this point.
If it does not work, try also https://www.facebook.com/[YourPageName]/[Your page Id]/.
In short, copy-paste the URL, do not type it manually.

Is it possible to use the Like Button Social plugin to like a feed from a landing page?

I have a Facebook feed that takes me to a landing page when I click on it. I want to be able to add Facebook's like plugin onto that landing page in order to like the feed I came from. This would be the equivalent of clicking like from the feed post itself. I don't know what to use for the data-href property in order to connect the like button to the feed.
I know the feed id and access_token and have tried the following:
https://graph.facebook.com/1608072154_362229823788663&access_token=...
http://www.facebook.com/1608072154/posts/362229823788663
So far I've only been able to like link urls and not the actual feed post.
Is what I'm trying to do even possible? and if so, how do I get the url?
Is what I'm trying to do even possible?
Yes it is possible, but not with the like plugin. I have a production app that pulls in a person's feed from multiple social networks including Facebook. I display a gray star for unliked content and a gold star for liked items. When the user clicks the gray star for a facebook item, I send an HTTP Post to the Graph API with /post_id/likes which likes it. If they click the gold star, then I send an HTTP DELETE to the /post_id/likes which removes it. See: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/post/ and the "likes" create/delete section near the bottom.

Facebook like button is not linked with the like in the fan page?

For example, I have an article in my site,
http://abc.com/1.html
and I put a like button plugin from Facebook in the website for this article (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like)
And I also have a fan page in Facebook and share this article (by sharing a link).
If I press the link button in my site, the fan page like for this article does not add up. And vice versa, if I click the like button of this article in fan page, it does not reflect on the website either.
So is it the default behavior? I thought the article URL is provided for the Facebook Like plugin, the info should be linked. Anything I am missing here?
Thanks.
When you put an Like Button on your website for this particular article,
it's usually linked to an "Open Graph FaceBook Page", not your regular Facebook Fan Page, with a wall page. Open Graph FaceBook Page will redirect users to your own website. The good part of it, is that you'll be able to post news in the fans news feed.
When you share that article on your Fan Page, fans would LIKE the news feed post, not your website's article.
You can link the like buttons to your Fan Page, but you'll loose specific article liking capabilities.
As described in the doc (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like) :
Can I link the Like button to my Facebook page?
Yes. Simply specify the URL of your Facebook page in the href parameter of the button.
The first like is for your site, the second like is for the feed story -- they are two distinct objects.

How to add Facebook 'Like' button on each article on a Joomla website?

I want to add Facebook's new 'Like' button on the articles on my Joomla website. When I tried, I could add the button for my website, but not for individual articles.
How can I achieve the integration with an individual article?
The end result should look something like http://mashable.com where 'Like' button appears on each article.
See this please.

You can use Spearhead Facebook like button module. It is very simple to use and it served my purpose, it has added language support for many languages including German, Spanish, Hungarian, Italian etc....
