March 1, 201214 yr He guys, This is probably a very dumb question, but I can't seem to find the answer, so this is my last resort. I'm trying to place a Facebook Like button on my website. The only thing I want, is that when users click the like button, a message on their newsfeed appears with something like "Sam just liked this website..". The thing is.. I thought this happened automatically. ("The Like button lets a user share your content with friends on Facebook. When the user clicks the Like button on your site, a story appears in the user's friends' News Feed with a link back to your website." - http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/) But when I click my iframe button, nothing appears! What am I doing wrong? I have placed the following code in the <head> <meta property="og:title" content="title" /> <meta property="og:type" content="athlete" /> <meta property="og:url" content="mywebsite.nl" /> <meta property="og:image" content="image.png" /> <meta property="og:site_name" content="sitename" /> <meta property="fb:admins" content="myfbaccountid" /> <meta property="og:description" content="description of my website"/> My iframe: <iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://www.mywebsite.nl" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; width:300px; height:80px"></iframe> Edited March 1, 201214 yr by SamP

I found that it didnt always show on others news feeds, but I think its worth reading up on Facebooks Edgerank Algorithm. Although, if your button isnt changing, then something could be wrong (are you able to provide a link to your page in question?
