I have recently installed this facebook badge as a widget on my forum. It worked fine for a few days but since today it first wants to load and then doesn't it just shows 2 links (text). One for the facebook group it used to show and one that says Promote your page too.

Does anyone know what causes this and how do I get the badge back?

Look where you got it to see if they updated the code or something.

Will do. I don't know but I think my computer is blocking it tho, as it seems to want to load and then stops. Could be because of all the blocks I put on for the FM ads.

Just tried that, code is the same, have copied and pasted it in just in case, makes no difference.

It's over 24 hrs ago time for a reminder.

Does anyone have any idea what can cause this. It worked fine for a few days and suddenly it stopped working.

I used the code from facebook, it worked fine for a few days and then suddenly stopped working. I also added illiweb (forumotion) to the exception sites of my ad block programme in case that made any difference.

Can anyone help? Any ideas what happened and how I can return the badge instead of just a clickable line?

I have never had any help or understood why it suddenly stopped working but today I tried the 'Like box' and copied the code into the widget on the forum and it works perfectly. You can choose to have it with or without the text stream of your fan page. There are a few options you can personalise to suit your forum. Fingers crossed this one stays working.

Go to your fb page and 'edit Page' -> 'marketing-> Add a like box to your website. Worked for me. You need to change the code given and insert the name of your page after 'www.facebook.com/...[your page name here]... Easy. I used the top one of the two codes given (no idea what it means but no need to know as it works).
