Forum:FB Like Upgrade

Currently, I have some JS that allows me to create an FB Like box here.('redwallfboxx'). However, today FB announced an upgrade to the code allowing the addition of a send button. I'm currently using iframe, FB advises using XFBML, can this be done? -- LordTBT Talk! 02:21, April 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * I did something like this over at Wowpedia (unfortunately, it no longer works over there), but I have not tried it on a Wikia wiki. It should work. I used an  also and I remember the XFBML wasn't possible when I tried it. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 26 Apr 2011 9:59 AM Pacific
 * As I said, the Likebox itself I've been using for a long time now, but the new Send button upgrade requires upgrading to XFBML... -- LordTBT Talk! 23:32, April 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Special:Version shows that Wikia does indeed support FBML, and if XFBML is anything like XHTML, then you don't need a technical upgrade to use it - just mind your p's and q's, and make sure you've properly nested your tags ( is wrong,   is correct). You may also want to look for documentation on FBML, and see if there's a specific tag or attribute you need. Also keep in mind that Wikia may or may not have the latest version of FBML, so what you need might not be there.


 * I've figured it out...I think it would make more sense to override Wikia's own Like Button and make it the Like/Send though. -- LordTBT Talk! 00:40, April 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Can you link to where you got it to work? -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 27 Apr 2011 5:20 PM Pacific
