I know this question has been asked before, but no answer I've found here or elsewhere has resolved my issue.
I would like my Facebook Like-button to show faces of friends who have liked the same page. Now it does not. If I like the page it shows my facebook profile picture but no other.
I know I have friends who have liked said page. They cannot see my picture either
I have used the HTML5 implementation of the button with following html: <div class="fb-like" data-width="300" data-show-faces="true" data-send="true"></div>
There is no issue with the height of the container since it can show one face (my own)
The URL of the page to like is not set in the fb-tag since it's a dynamic like-button that's availible on several pages.
See it in action on the right side of this page: http://www.takespace.se/Campaign/Stoppa-slavhandeln-i-Sverige

Can anyone please explain how the addThis facebook like button works?
The code for adding the button is
<a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a>
I'm going through the code of a website with pages listing details of different products. There is this fb like button on each of those pages. What exactly is liked here? Since I don't provide any facebook URL which specifies the page or image or anything related to this product that I've already put on facebook, what is this like button liking?
I have added a facebook like button to my site at http://forkmyreligion.com. I have triple checked all the settings for the app on my developers.facebook page and I'm pretty sure its all correct - the domain is correct, the website url is correct and I have the correct app id for the application.
The problem though is that clicking on the like button results in the user liking the facebook social plugins page rather than my page.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks
The Like button on your page is Liking the social plugins page because the Like button on your page has a data-href parameter which is explicitly configuring the like button to like that URL:
You have this:
<div class="fb-like" data-href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/" data-colorscheme="light" data-layout="standard" data-action="like" data-show-faces="true" data-send="false"></div>
You need to set the data-href to the URL you want the button to display and increment the like count of.
This parameter is mentioned on the Like button documentation and the example in the documentation is the URL https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/
I have a large image gallery web page. I want to have a Facebook 'Like' button per image, so I set the API URL for each like button to be something like:
<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://mysite.com/gallery/photo1.jpg" data-send="true" data-width="300" data-show-faces="false"></div>
However, the Facebook API seems to not like this. The console says there is a mismatch between domains.
I am assuming this is because the actual 'Like' button is on one URL, eg: mysite.com/gallery whilst the URL it is told to like is diffent, eg: mysite.com/gallery/photo1.jpg as once I set them both to the same URL it is fine.
Does anyone know of a work around for this? Have a Facebook Like button on one page, but the page to like on another, separate page?
Yes, you can definitively add a like button for a content on another domain.
For the moment, there's a bug on Facebook Like buttons' callbacks, and likes are often not taken into account.
The issue should be solved soon : https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/457950334238629
Get the link you want to like working in the Facebook debugger and it should work:

Update: I don't know if the question changed or I was just zoned out, but you cannot like a JPG file.
Edit: +1 is working now.. only the facebook share is still broken
I've added some social buttons to this Website hgw-Hausnummern.de
The +1 button doesn't work at all and the Facebook like button only works for simple likes, but if i want to share the site (from within that dialog you see after a like) this share doesn't show up in my timeline.
What did I do wrong?
I'm not sure what's up with your Facebook Like button, but I do see one issue with your +1 button markup.
Your current +1 button markup looks like this:
<div class="g-plusone" data-size="small" data-annotation="none" data-href="www.hgw-hausnummern.de"></div>
You must specify the target website with a full URL. Try changing your code to:
<div class="g-plusone" data-size="small" data-annotation="none" data-href="http://www.hgw-hausnummern.de"></div>
I want to add a like/recommend button to a facebook tab.An example of facebook tab is this.
The problem with using facebook like/recommend is that if we have done fan gating and the user has to like the page before he/she can view the content of the tab, then the like/recommend will always be greyed out, since the page has been liked.
So in particular I want the user to like a section of the page not the complete page.
I have gone through the net and found out some hacks for it like this and this.
I don't want to use fb:comments or fb:share as they have been deprecated. Is there any other way around.
Place this code inside your page:
You need to specify data-href to your particular link.
Leaving it empty gets facebook to like the current page.
<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.google.com" data-send="true" data-width="450" data-show-faces="true"></div>
