I am trying to get the Activity Feed Social Plugin to display on this website: http://wrdtempsite.com.au/qualdes/
(It's WordPress run and has the WordPress SEO plugin installed which has FB meta data)
Nothing shows at all, but I get no errors. (It should display on the right hand side of the homepage).
Code below:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=XXXXX";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
<div class="fb-activity" data-site="http://wrdtempsite.com.au/qualdes/" data-app-id="XXXXX" data-width="300" data-height="600" data-header="true" data-recommendations="false"></div>
I cannot see what is wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
It was a css rule that was basically 'hiding' the widget from view.
.fb_iframe_widget iframe {position:absolute;}
I changed that to position relative.

I have implemented the Facebook share button as follows:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.0";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/bookf1" data-layout="button_count" data-share="false" data-width="180" data-show-faces="false" data-font="tahoma"></div>
<div class="fb-share-button" data-type="button"></div>
It appears on my website as expected and clicking it brings up the sharer.php with the expected display. However, when I click the 'Share Link' button it shows the 'thinking' animation for a second then nothing happens. The sharer.php pop-up just remains on-screen.
If I try and share the link via a private message I get an error saying "The Attachment Could Not Be Found".
This is running on a publicly accessible URL.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I can't seem to find this issue anywhere else.
Thanks!
I ran into a similair issue with exactly the same symptoms and wasted some time here.
After clicking my share-button the expected popup opened. In the url it was visible that sharer.php was called with an unknown (to me at least) app-id as parameter. After creating a facebook app for the website in question and putting the newly created app-id as parameter ..
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/de_DE/sdk.js#xfbml=1&appId=MY_APP_ID&version=v2.0";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
.. it worked.
For debugguing purposes it could be helpful to put another source for js.src:
[...]
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/de_DE/sdk/debug.js[...]
[...]
This will log debugging messages to the js-console. (As can be read up here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/javascript/quickstart/v2.0#advancedsetup)
I looked at previous asked questions about the facebook like button and didnt see anything that was wrong with my code. Here is what I have:
<body>
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}
(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
</body>
After adding the code for initializing the Facebook's Javascript SDK you also have to add the code to display the Like button at the required place. The generic code for it is
<div class="fb-like" data-send="true" data-width="450" data-show-faces="true">
</div>
If you want you can further customize it by checking documentation here.
Had the same problem, once I published the page, the like buttons showed up
facebook page : settings : Page Visibility : Page published
(the page was "unpublished" by default even after I did publish it for the first time)
I know topic is old but still coming up in searches.
Here's the initialization code I used:
(function(d, s, id){
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));
Important:
By default Facebook auto-configuration tool (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/follow-button) does not prepend "HTTPS" when exporting the js.src element.
If testing this on localhost host you will run into problems with the button visibility (c.f. v2.9) Either use a https tunnel service such as ngrok or deploy to valid https server.
Adding version to the url js.src = "https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.11"; helped in my case.
I am trying to use the facebook like plugin which has a like and send button.The source code of my page is as follows-
<html>
<body>
hello
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=138876406236026";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
<div class="fb-send"></div>
</body>
Why is it not working?
it wont work on your local system ,you should put it in your website ,
ex: www.sample.com ,
The facebook social buttons work locally on a computer.When you put them online on your website,they will work :)
I see a weird kind of fail working with like box... I can't see the like box, but the address looks fine:
<div class="fb-like-box" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/instituto.vannghiespana"
data-width="292" data-height="570" data-show-faces="true"
data-stream="true" data-header="true"></div>
I have tried changing the “http” for “https” and still doesn’t answer. Even when I try to generate the code on like box facebook developers site, the validation says the code is ok, but I still can’t see the site.
But... When I use the older website:
data-href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Instituto-Van-Nghi-Espa%C3%B1a/133758943312622"
Works fine.
Thanks for your time.
(EDITED)
I already include the facebook sniplet after body
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/es_ES/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
even I try changing js.src = "//connect for js.src = "http//connect
Any ideas?

The Facebook Like Box plugin is for liking Facebook Pages.
The example you listed, instituto.vannghiespana, is a (fake) profile, not a page.
The like box plugin cannot be used with profiles. If this is your profile you should convert it to a Page (for one thing, a profile can't have more than 5000 friends)
You're forgetting the JavaScript code:
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1&appId={{APP_ID}}";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
Look more carefully in the documentation.
do you have the required fb-root html tag:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
as well as the corresponding javascript code?
I want to include Facebook share button and comment box to my website.
I have a code for share button:
<script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share"
type="text/javascript">
</script>
<a name="fb_share" type="icon" share_url="www.example.com"></a>
For comment box:
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=258471354227171";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
<div class="fb-comments" data-href="www.example.com" data-num-posts="3" data-width="600"></div>
Separately it works perfect, but when i put it in one page just one of them is working. What is a problem?
I think the solution you need is here:
Facebook Like button sometimes appears sometimes not
Basically you need to add the FB.share script after all.js.
