facebook like box not visible in sidebar, how do i fix it?

  • Unknown's avatar

    my facebook like box isnt visible in the sidebar of my blog
    this might be because Facebook updated my page today, or because I changed my facebook and wordpress passwords recently
    I have also tried reducing the width of the box, but its still not visible

    Hi!

    I just visited your blog and the Facebook widget was visible. There’s a chance this was a temporary problem with Facebook, as we only “retransmit” their embeddable widget, meaning that we don’t really generate anything ourselves.

    If you had changed your password, there’s also a chance that your browser had trailing cookies or login information that was confusing the Facebook services for pages.

    Are you still seeing this problem? If so, can you reproduce it with Chrome, or Internet Explorer?

    I hope this is no longer an issue, please let me know if it is!

    thganks, it is now appearing in the sidebar on my tablet (android version), but only as a very narrow section, with no visible like button, and the grey border on the right of the box takes up more than half of the width
    on my pc it still only appears as a heading, without any scrolling content, no profile pic, no like button
    Im away for a week now, but will get back to you on 23rd June if its not better
    thanks

    Hey there.

    When you are back, and if the problem persists, do you think you can upload a screenshot of the problem into your Media Library?

    The page at the following link has some helpful tips for taking screenshots:

    I’ll be able to take a look and give you some better advice. I suspect it might be lingering cookies, or a cache problem, but we better take a closer look.

    Cheers.
