Breaking Change about absolute URL in Social Plugin

I got this alert from facebook:

... is currently using the following deprecated features: Social Plugins (Like Button, Like Box) without absolute URL's in their href parameter.

The fb like and fb comment box is used on a Sharepoint site, and the URL in the href parameter is absolute.

Anyone have ideas why facebook is complaining about the code? or have a safe approach I can use to test if the code will work after the change without downtime on the plugins.

Solution

  • Just as @Anvesh says, I checked that my URLs was absolute, enabled the migration, waited a few minutes and tested and nothing breaked.

    They should rephrase the message.
