Facebook like button bug

by Knocks
4 replies
I want the Facebook like button on my site to function without popping up a dialog. I just want it to add a like to the site and not bug the user with questions about sharing etc as well as keep the layout of my site clean.

I added overflow:hidden in the button code, but it doesn't work. The dialog still pops up every time "like" is pressed. Is that a bug?

    You are confusing the share button with the like button.

    Here you go, this is to official like button creator https://developers.facebook.com/docs.../plugins/like/

    no pop ups with that.

    The share button has been deprecated, and the new like button includes both like and share functions. So yes, there is a pop up.

    Why is it a "bug" if it doesn't act like you want it to act?

    The "layout of your site" isn't affected when the box pops up.

    The best solution, if you're really worried about it? Don't use the FB like button.

      Yes, the layout is affected. The dialog pops over a border and is cut off. Hence the existence of the overflow: hidden function, which doesn't seem to work
