Remove facebook fan page profile picture on like box plugin - facebook

I just want to ask a simple question about facebook like box http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/ I just want to remove the fan page profile photo.. Is there a solution for this? Thanks!

First: It is against the facebook rules to change or hide things in the social plugins.
That being said, afaik it is not possible anymore to use custom css in the social plugins. A long time ago you could pass the absolute URL of a css file to the plugin code but it does not work anymore.
I would recommend using a simple Like button. If you really need the stream of the page too, you could just use an app to read them by yourself, in that case even with your own design.

I just thought to answer this question as someone else might need this information in the future. All you need to do is reduce the width of the facebook like box. That’s it. I have done that in my website www.bringhopes.ca.

You can add the following CSS to hide the image
img.profileimage
{
display:none;
}

Facebook Comments sometimes not loading

I kindly ask you to advise why Facebook Comments sometimes do not appear on my site.
I use standard code generated from Facebook Developers site.
Please note that the Comments box is located under the colored frame. Usually, it appears after reloading the page. Real site examples:
http://wakemovies.com/?ND201206190204
http://wakemovies.com/?BL201206190157
If I recall correctly Facebook comments require a bit of customization to the dock-type they have special format.
You should add this line tou your dock type
xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"
One more thing you are overloading your page with Facebook like buttons. I think one is more than enough considering most people have sharing plugins installed int they browsers.
I solved this by adding a setTimeout with a delay of 1 second
example:
setTimeout(function() {
// Your Facebook Comments JavaScript Code Here
}, 1000);

customizing the facebook registration widget with javascript

Is anyone aware of any restrictions Facebook places on modifying the look and feel of their registration widget?
We'd like to use the FB Registration widget on one of our pages, and then use jQuery to hide certain divs, text, etc. to make it a bit more compact and fit aesthetically better into our site.
Is is 'legal' or acceptable to do? I'm attempting to read through all of their documents to find out, but if someone already knows, that would really help.

Facebook uses iframes to load the registration plugin on your website. So there is no way you can change the looks of it with css or jQuery.
You can just customize however you want according to guidelines present here.

FB.provide is not a function

I'm developing a WordPress plugin to show above or bottom the posts Facebook like and send buttons.
Unfortunately when is also activated a plugin for Facebook share button there is a Javascript error (FB.provide is not a function) and like and send buttons don't appear.
For example this happens in this page: http://www.pasqualepuzio.it/2011/04/plugin-facebook-like-and-send-button/
How can I solve this issue?
Thank you very much
I ´ve faced the same problem and it happens if you add the script twice on the site (http://connect.facebook.net/sv_SE/all.js)
I understood that part that we cant have all.js twice but I want to have Facebook Share Button and Facebook Like Button.
According to Docs, I need to include these two JS Files.
https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js
http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share
Now, If I include both Firebug will give me same error "FB.provide is not a function". If I remove either of them then Like or Share button wont work.
I can do iFrame version but I have HTML Encoding issues with iFrame Version. I am programmatic generating HTML Response.
Any idea, how to approach?
There is a workaround for this: instead of placing the javascript Fb.Share within the same page where you are loading the Javascript SDK, use an Iframe with the first and set it in the second.

How can I distribute a bookmarklet in FBML?

I have a JavaScript bookmarklet that I'd like fans of a certain page to take. Unfortunately, the only way I've found of distributing it is giving them the raw JavaScript source, which is then problematic to add as a bookmark.
Ideally, I'd use
Drag this to the bookmarks bar
But FBML filters out the JavaScript href.
Any advice?
If it is not possible using fbml, I would share a link to a web page where you put the actual bookmarklet. It is the opportunity to display on this page a tutorial on how install/use the bookmarklet.
Huh. Looks like dragging the bookmarklet in text form is sufficient to create a bookmark.

How do you remove the "box head" in a Facebook application?

I'm currently developing a Facebook application which will eventually end up on a Facebook Page. The problem is that I don't know how to remove the box header (handle?) with the application name and the close-button.
I've seen other applications on Pages being able to remove the header. Look at Apples Page here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Apple-Students/11147074409
Is it because they use an IFrame? I've tried that as well but I still need to call setFBML and embed an IFrame inside it.
I think you're right about the IFrame in the Apple page. It looks like the entire left column is a single IFrame. Still, it's not clear how they managed to get rid of the handle bar. Now I'm curious too...
Is is possible that Apple paid facebook to remove the header you are talking about?
Maybe it's a special case and they have a special API/UI for people who are willing to give them cash money?
I wrote a Facebook application a while back and I do not believe it has what you are calling a box header on it: http://apps.facebook.com/photoisland/. The application is configured to run entirely in an IFrame and I am not using FBML at all.
I've finally found out how to get an IFrame without a header just like Apple does.
You have to sign a special deal with Facebook to get it... however this deal doesn't come cheap so it's out of question for most companies. :(
