Help With New Facebook Like Button with SMF

[alphacaveman]

I've gotten the new Facebook Like button to work on standard webpages, but not with my SMF.

The button shows up but it either gives an error message once it's clicked or appears to do as it's supposed to by opening a pop up login box BUT instead of going away after you login it tries to open your Facebook account in that small pop up browser window.

Here's an example of it on a normal page (scroll to end). Please test that and then LOG OUT of Facebook so that there's a consistent test. Then see my forum thread template where I've put it.

Here's the code Facebook gives:

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?layout=standard&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=350&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:350px; height:px"></iframe>

I suspect there's a PHP or SMF tweak that needs to be made. I'd sure appreciate someone telling me how to do it. Thanks!

Ok, I have figured out that it has something to do with the process of getting the URL of the page being liked...BUT I need help to do that please.

Here's the code for a static page where you have the URL. I think a change needs to be made to have SMF get the url of the thread:

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gracecentered.com%2Fchristian_forums%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=350&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:350px; height:30px"></iframe>

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=';, $scripturl, '?topic=', $context['current_topic'], '&amp;layout=button_count&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=80&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:80px; height:21px"></iframe>
