Hi Dave, Nice modules you made there. it works pretty well and I have been trying all the settings I have only a few suggestions : 1) Would it be possible to add the button in the list of icons (view full size, slideshow, etc) ? ----------------- Gallery stats * Version: 3.0 (Santa Fe) remove Platform information * Host name: |

1) Would it be possible to add the button in the list of icons (view full size, slideshow, etc) ? I tried but most of the buttons are square and as far as I know the button that facebook uses is not customizable. It is a <iframe> and quite wide. Quote:
2) The button appears about ten seconds after the photo has been uploaded so I guess the users won't wait until then to use it. Is there a way to make it appear quicker I could investigate but if you have an idea why let me know. Quote:
3) Again and again, no thumbnail appear in the posts on Facebook, I know it's a FB problem, but it is still annoying. Is it related to this module? I don't understand. _____________________________________________ |

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like says it is a simple switch. So I guess U can fix that. I am not willing to make a admin option for this but you are welcome to code some if you wish. Dave |

Button works, but does not integrate nicely: And when I enable the normal style the text is half way out of the box (to the right) I am not sure if it is the buttons fault or the fault of the template, but I would guess the button does not take the template styling into account. Thanks for the nice work you have done. Cheers |

Sure. I was so obvious that I just forgot to post it. in views/facebook_like.html.php increase the value for height: By the way, why not add control options to the admin site for all changeable options facebook provides? This would also help to control the height and width for individual themes. Cheers |

Well, you could make it feature complete by adding all the attributes listed on http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like to the admin page. If you do so, keep the restrictions in mind like Quote:
Minimum width: 225 pixels. Default width: 450 pixels. Height: 35 pixels (without photos) or 80 pixels (with photos). You might consider to use the XFBML version. Cheers |

AddThis has a new option that combines FB Like, a Tweet button and the usual Share button for all other services. I copied that code and pasted it in place of the code in share_bookmark_block.html.php, but the FB Like count/balloon didn't show. Also, I need to widen the sidebar a bit to get it all on one line and couldn't figure it out in the css. |

I ended up doing the following to your share_bookmark_block.html.php file to get the long Share button and their FB Like and Tweet buttons: <script type="text/javascript"> The <br /><br /> is to place the FB and Tweet buttons on their own line, otherwise it looks unprofessional with Tweet alone below FB and Share. (I could've used one of their smaller Share buttons to get everything on one line, but I like their longer Share button.) http://www.blackboxnynj.com/gallery/ R |

I get images when I share your pages to Facebook; I actually get way more images to choose from than are on the page. (I think they're coming from the sidebar.) Doesn't work for you? |

Yes, indeed, to my surprise, the "share" module works fine in terms of images publishing on Gallery3 (not Gallery2 though) and that is a great news !!! But I was talking about the "Facebook Like" module, the topics of this post. This one does not publish the image, just a text, such as : Quote:
Petri likes Photo :: bougie on coquille.org. for this page : http://www.coquille.org/gallery3/index.php/Portfolio/Design/Color/bougie But maybe it is normal, Facebook like does not publish photos... By the way... about text... could it be possible to take away the double :: on the title of the page ?
----------------- Gallery 2 URL = http://www.coquille.org/gallery/main.php Gallery 3 URL = http://www.coquille.org/gallery3 |

@petri: It's normal; that's the way like works. As for the ::, it's controlled in your theme and I agree with floridave that you should start a new topic thread if you need help with that. @Jeeves_: Yes, the module works; the link is at the top of the page http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:facebook_like @floridave: Thanks for the module!! |

Of course I will. Any instructions? I have never done it. I had a look at that thread, but that doesn't look like a module. It's a script that hasn't been "modulized." |

I tried this on multiple different photos. At one point, it posted a photo from a completely different album but had the text for the photo that I had liked. |

The share button works; it's pulling an image from the navigator module because Facebook can't distinguish which image you want highlighted. @floridave: It may help Facebook know what thumb to use if the module can add |

I see the issue that lateatnight has but don't know how FB gets the image from the code. The code in the <i frame> that is generated looks fine to me and has the proper url. tempg; Dave |

Modules that I added are Adsense It likes to pickup the advertisement banner in my footer as the image on FB. Site can be found here. I'll reactivate the FB Like button. Is it possible in a future release to have the option to place Like button below the pictures? |

Seems to be working so far. Tried it on a few different photos. But when you click like, shouldn't you receive a popup box asking you for the share permission level on facebook? |

Unrelated question: is there a way of hiding the Like button for pictures in private albums? I havn't tried what happens when I click on such a button but I guess Facebook will create a link to a login box. Best, Roland. |

If you are not logged in I think there is a popup or some redirect for the user to login. Not sure if the user has some popup blocker what hapends. Atrus, Dave |

@floridave: Apologies for not getting back; overlooked it. @pintac: The new line works for you, but it's just coincidental because of the way your page is laid out. You're supposed to replace your facebook like module with the one posted by @floridave above: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/98752#comment-370082 |

I did replace it with those files and yes it works. The part about permissions was a separate thing. It posts to the profile but not to the news feed like everything else unless you click on share. |

What do you think of still having the 'like' button but only give facebook a generic thumb? Or is it better just to not show the like button at all? @ Floridave, I would prefer not showing the button at all, so that facebook never knows about private albums. Roland. |
