Here is a site that I'm upgrading for one of my clients:
http://home.minitraper.pl/
As you can see, rolling the mouse over the facebook icon on the right, the LikeBox panel shows only 2 faces/connections but there are 5 people who like the page. I was playing around with various versions of LikeBox code (the current one is the iframe version) but it didn't change a thing.
What can possibly be wrong?
It could be that these people have set their FB preferences so you cannot be seen here unless you are that person's friend. You can't do anything about this.
This seems the most likely answer.

When a visitor click on Facebook comment box to write comment, Mobile Chrome browser zooms entire page to max level as seen in the video.
I noticed same thing with many websites using Facebook comments, however I also noticed some websites including Facebook demo did not behave like that. I compared code but couldn't find the reason why its behaving like that.
Does anyone have a fix? I tried viewport meta tag as suggested on some relevant questions but it didn't help.
How do I solve an issue where the Facebook comments plugin seems to be completely broken? Please see the screen shot.
When I am logged in to Facebook, I see what you see there. Where the plugin HTML is meant to be, it says "skin must be one of the following values: light, dark".
When I am logged out of Facebook, it is completely blank. I am seeing this error on all browsers, on multiple test computers (including various configurations on browserstack.com), on every website that I can find that uses the Facebook social comments plugin - including Facebook itself!
It looks like Facebook have dramatically changed their comments plugin code. All sites using this plugin will probably have to update their code ASAP because the old code doesn't seem to work any longer.
To get Facebook's own page working, I just had to type in "light" in the Color Scheme box.
For my website www.donelli.nl im using the Facebook likebox.
It worked good for a few weeks but now something strange has happend.
Since yesterday the likebox is not showing pictures anymore. I have changed nothing in the settings, it just happend.
So now when im placing a post on my Facebook everything is fine on Facebook. But its not on my website. In the like box only the text appears and not the picture.
Can somebody please help me?
Kind Regards,
David
This is "by design". The limited space of social plugins like the Like Box and Activity Feed means FB has to display 'compact' versions of large stories like photos. If you look at the CSS, you'll see the DIVs are tagged '!important' (not important).
I had an application on production, ~900 MAU, linked with a fan page. Through the Facebook search box, anyone could find the application typing its name. Note that the Fan page and the application have the same name.
Recently (2 weeks ago), I had to change the application "Display name" with something totally different, and since that day, the search box does not find our application anymore. Note that the fan page has not been updated, so the title is still the old name.
I've probably missed something in the documentation, but it looks like if an app is linked with a fan page, the Facebook search box uses the fan page's name & descriptions for the application itself.
Can someone confirm?
Thank you for your help.
It has been experienced by me much times that some stuff (Pages/Events/Apps) don't appear at the search box. A friend suggested giving it some time to update and it worked. Probably it's the same problem, it just needs some time to be cached
I use fan gates on a lot of different fan pages. The idea has always been you land on the page and see a like us to gain something after clicking like the page reloads and now the user sees the content behind the fan gate.
I noticed today that after liking a page it immediately goes to the wall, is this a bug? Is this feature deprecated? I don't have much wall activity on my pages, I'd rather users see our portfolio or special deals.
This is a bug on facebook right now, described here - https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/110015112440103
It'd be great to have an interim fix but since the code for the Like button is outside of what's accessible to the page tab, I'm having trouble imaging what a solution might look like, short of removing the address from your page to make it not a "place", which seem to be the only pages affected.
I've been having this problem for the past few days, but today I found the solution. It seems the problem lies with the new recommend dialog box on pages. This box only appears on pages for places and prevents the page from reloading. If you have a address assigned to your page then remove it and your fangate will reload in the window when liked and not redirect to the wall page. I know this isn't a preferred fix, but until Facebook fixes the new dialog box it'll have to do.
