Most ECT Users will be including [url="https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/social-media.asp"]Social Media Buttons[/url] on Product and Article detail pages, particularly Facebook Like and Share buttons, the appearance of which is defined by adding this parameter to [maroon]vsadmin/includes.php[/maroon]

[size=3][font=Courier New][purple]$socialbuttonfacebook[/purple]='<div class="fb-like" data-href="%pageurl%" data-layout="button" data-action="like" data-size="large" data-show-faces="false" data-share="true"></div>';[/font=Courier New][/size=3]

If you look at a Product page [url="http://www.ectdemostore.com/cssecommplus/cssvirtualnatura/proddetail.asp?prod=pc001"]like this here[/url] notice that the right half of the Share button is chopped off. This is a bug in the Facebook embed code which [url="https://developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/793934047830484/"]has been reported[/url] and is under investigation. (The pixel width of the relevant table cell is wrong; should be auto.)

Anyway ... the point of my post ... my short term solution was to simply have a Like button only and omit the Share button, which is easily done [url="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button/"]as explained here[/url] by altering the [purple]$socialbuttonfacebook[/purple] parameter entry like so:

[size=3][font=Courier New][purple]$socialbuttonfacebook[/purple]='<div class="fb-like" data-href="%pageurl%" data-layout="button" data-action="like" data-size="large" data-show-faces="false" [red]data-share="false"[/red]></div>';[/font=Courier New][/size=3]

But did that work? NO

No matter what I could only get a button_count + Share button. Altering the [purple]$socialbuttonfacebook[/purple] entry is having no effect whatsoever.
My I.T.ZAP website is running ECT PHP v7.2.3. The [purple]$socialbuttontwitter[/purple] and [purple]$socialbuttonpinterest[/purple] parameters appear to work fine.

However, on another website running earlier ECT PHP v6.9.1, making the same alteration to [purple]$socialbuttonfacebook[/purple] works just fine

Much appreciate if you could please take a look at this issue Vince ?

P.S. Links to other pages in forum posts are now the same color as other text, [blue]not a color like blue[/blue]?

Hi Gary
I'm not sure when this changed but could you try $sbfacebook instead of $socialbuttonfacebook. Also, $sblinkedin and $sbtwitter should work but there is no $socialbuttontwitter etc.
