force facebook like button to use fan_count as counter?


Is it possible to force the facebook like button to use the fan_count as counter? And also like/unlike (increase/decrease the fan_count) when clicked? I have been browsing forums and read most tutorials but i wasnt able to get my question answered. It seems like the standard like button uses something complete different.


Solution

  • What you can do is to configure a Facebook URL as URL source to the Like Button, such as https://www.facebook.com/nike

    Then, you're able to like the Page via the Like Button, see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button
