What is different of having a facebook share button just by having an anchor tag:
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=<url to share>&t=<title of content>">
<img src="custom.jpg" />
</a>
than having one with the javascript provided by FB follow by the anchor tag?
<script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share" type="text/javascript"></script>
I just want to verify I'm not missing any of the basic functionality of sharing a link by using the anchor tag only because I want to use the anchor tag way to customize my button image.
The end result of the share is the same, as when you click the button it ends up taking you to the same endpoint. The difference is in how the button looks (and the count that shows up if that's the layout you've chosen).

I'm trying to make all picture posts on my homepage not clickable, so they can't link to the permalinks. (I just want them to stay as miniatures with the hover cycle effect already provided by the theme)
I've tried removing {LinkOpenTag} and {LinkCloseTag} from:
{block:Photo}
<div class="wide-sizer">
<div class="image">
{LinkOpenTag}
<img src="{block:PermalinkPage}{PhotoURL-HighRes}{/block:PermalinkPage}{block:IndexPage}{PhotoURL-500}{/block:IndexPage}" alt="{PhotoAlt}"
data-high-res="{PhotoURL-HighRes}"
data-width="{PhotoWidth-HighRes}"
data-height="{PhotoHeight-HighRes}"
/>
{LinkCloseTag}
</div>
But photos and photosets are still clickable.
This is my page: http://woodstudiofr.tumblr.com
I'm using the "Spectator Theme".
UPDATE: ok so i tried removing as data-permalink={Permalink}as lharby suggested, but now all the links redirect to /undefined.
Any ideas?
thanks again for your time !
As mentioned in my comment, the data-permalink attribute has been removed, but there is still some custom javascript which is casing the url to be returned undefined.
Go to the bottom of your template, before the closing <body> tag and add this code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.post').unbind('click').click(function(){});
});
</script>
(Basically instead of binding the post to a click function which is in the custom javascript we are now attempting to unbind it on click).
I tested it in the browser and it looks to be working (although a couple of other methods I thought would work didn't).
EDIT
In order to change the cursor on the post element. Remove the clickable class from the .post div from the template (if you can, if it is hard coded in).
Alternatively inside the style tags at the bottom, add the following css:
.post-grid .post.photo.clickable a,
.post.clickable {
cursor: default;
}
I have a tumblr blog. I want to put a Google Translate Tool & Button on my tumblr blog. How can I do? Unfortunately, I cant find it in tumblr help pages.
Go here: https://translate.google.com/manager/add
Follow all of the instructions and you'll get two pieces of code, one that looks like this:
<meta name="google-translate-customization" content="272b1f36bdc17cf1-0221013045ec1abb-gfd965ee1275b4499-14"></meta>
You'll want to place the <meta> code before the closing </head> tag, this will be at the top of your theme.
The other piece of code looks like this:
<div id="google_translate_element"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: 'en', layout: google.translate.TranslateElement.InlineLayout.SIMPLE}, 'google_translate_element');
}
</script><script type="text/javascript" src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit"></script>
For this piece of code you'll need to place it where you want the tool to appear on your theme, likely this will be near the top of your page, just after the opening <body> tag. Your blog will likely have some sort of 'wrapping' div, so you maybe want to place it inside of that.
You'll need to fiddle around a little bit to position it how you like.
To put both of these bits of code into your theme, you'll need to go to the 'Customize Theme' page and click on 'Edit HTML'.
So I am trying to add the following "Like Us On Facebook" code in the header of my website and have it be right justified, while the Title & Description remain left justified. Here is the FB code:
<div class="fb-like-box" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/HowToForiPad" data-width="292" data-show-faces="false" data-stream="false" data-header="false"></div>
I'm not the most knowledgeable about this type of thing so I'd prefer not to mess with the CSS and have been just trying to drop the code above into the appropriate place in my header.php file. The tricky part (for me) is making the Facebook Like right aligned while the site title and description remain left aligned.
Here is an example of what I want it to look like (ignore the underscores...had to do it to make it look right)
WELCOME TO WHATEVER SITE
The site does blah blah________________________________________Like us on facebook
Here is the relevant code from the header.php:
<!-- HEADER -->
<div id="header">
<div class="website-name"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></div>
<div class="slogan"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>
</div>
<!-- /HEADER -->
So basically I'd like the Facebook code to be in line with the site description but right justified (whereas the site description is left justified).
Greatly appreciate any help!
Using CSS is pretty much your only option.
You can change the slogan div to a span (or set a width on the div), add the fb like box below this span and float it right. That should do what you need.
If you REALLY don't want to touch your CSS file, you can add the styles inline, but I don't recommend this as it is not best practice.
The example Tumblr gives is
<html>
<head>
<!-- DEFAULTS -->
<meta name="if:Show people I follow" content="1"/>
<meta name="if:Reverse pagination" content="0"/>
</head>
<body>
{block:IfNotReversePagination}
Previous Next
{/block:IfNotReversePagination}
{block:IfReversePagination}
Next Previous
{/block:IfReversePagination}
{block:IfShowPeopleIFollow}
<div id="following">...</div>
{/block:IfShowPeopleIFollow}
</body>
</html>
For these meta-if tags, when I change content="1" to content="0" or content="" nothing seems to happen to the appearance of my tumblr.
I don't understand what these meta-if tags do.
According to Tumblr: By including the special meta-if tags in your theme, users can easily toggle options you define. This is useful for showing or hiding different widgets or design elements.
I understood this as you can show/hide different design elements by changing the content value ie. content="0", content="1", content="". But nothing seems to happen to the design if I do this.
I googled this and I can't find any explanation elaborating on what Tumblr says. Can someone please explain?
Tumblr uses meta tags to save preferences of the theme. Meta if will cause that user gets a new checkbox on the Appearance menu. If its checked than the
<div id="following">...</div>
will be shown on your page.
So there should be new div element in the page source and three dots displayed on the page.
What Bojan Dević said is correct. Although, I would like to address the other half of your question, as well. content="1" automatically sets the element to be shown, or as content="0" makes it hidden.
is it possible to create simple Like button for fan page? When I create official Like button, insert my fan page URL in form, it always generate button with image and page title as it is Like box not Like button. I just want simple Like button only with "Like" label and users count.
Is this an issue or default behavior, or just my misunderstanding?
Thanks for advice

Did you mean you want this button?
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like
Alternatively, you may use AddThis widget - They even provide analytics for you.
http://www.addthis.com/
I use the widget on this website: http://muamalat.com.my/consumer-banking/financing/mortgage/
I must have misread your question. In that case I've only come across this: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/
Uncheck show faces, stream and header; that's the cleanest you could get. Is this what you're looking for?
I don't think AddThis has that feature you speak of. :)
One way to only show the like button by itself is to hide the top part of the button by setting the iframe dimensions to the size of the button: 60x20.
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?&href=&send=false&layout=button_count&width=60&height=20&show_faces=false&action=like&colosheme=light"
allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"
style="width: 60px; height: 20px;">
</iframe>
If you are using Iframe you need to place an http or https: because >iframe starts as
<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href= ................></iframe>
and you need to place
<iframe src="**http:**//www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href= ................></iframe>
The above answer did help me in finding that out.
If i read this correct, then it is definitely possible:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/
Put in your Page URL, for example: https://www.facebook.com/bladauhu
(that is my own page)
Uncheck Send Button, use Layout Style "button_count", uncheck Show Faces. Leave the rest as it is and click on the "Get code" button. Use the HTML5 or XFBML Version.
For me, this works just like every other Website and it shows the correct number of likes from the Facebook Page. No additional Images, just the plain and simple Like button.
Adding data-layout='button_count' to the HTML5 version worked for me:
<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://facebook.com/wewantoo" data-send="false" data-width="90" data-show-faces="false" data-layout='button_count'></div>
