  Hi, I’ve started writing on Environment, Energy and Sustainability domain from past 6 months. I’ve seen Facebook ‘Like’ widgets on sidebar on many wordpress.org blog and want the same on my blog too. I’ve searched on WP site but didn’t find anything. Can anyone suggest the best way to do the same. If WP is not offering such widgets yet, what are its possibilities in near future. (My blog: http://www.greencleanguide.com)

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

  If you wish you can:
  1. post a Facebook badge > http://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-badge/

  Thanks for the above information. I’ve another question, can I add Facebook ‘like’ and ‘share’ button in the post. I’ve share button in my blog. (http://greencleanguide.com/) but I could not add share and like button both at the same time. I’ve read some comments https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/its-possible-facebook-share-and-like-buttonsat-the-same-time?replies=88 but the share button doesn’t worked out even image of share button is not like Facebook (I’ve added the button image URL as mentioned on the forum. Please provide the solution.
