  Hi there,

  I have been having on-and-off issues with “facebook like button” on posts. When you click, it shows 1 like for less than a second, and then goes back to 0 again.

  It works on most posts, but today’s wont work (http://wp.me/p1pJ6P-cJ).

  It’s run on a wordpress.com blog.

  (I have seen this issue posted on several forums, so I cleared cookies and cache, and also tried in it: Chrome, IE, and downloaded FireFox – works on none of them.)

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Well I’m using Firefox 5.0 and your Facebook like button works for me. Also note I have replied to you in the other thread you posted into.

  Thanks, time theif. I have tried those options and still have not been able to ‘like’ the post. Neither have several readers who tried. Some went back and liked the link posted directly to Facebook. Is this a Facebook error that will be cleared up? Is there anything else I can try on my end?

  I’ve been having the same problem with my blog. Sometimes the like button works properly, registering the total number of “likes” on a post, but sometimes it will only show the number 1 very briefly when the button is clicked. The number then disappears and no total is displayed.

  Have you gone here > Appearance > Widgets and discovered the new Facebook like box widget for fan pages?

  Thanks! I am loving the new fan “like” box – any ideas why it is showing up a little funky though? http://besozo.wordpress.com/ (Last widget down on left sidebar)
