How to Add the Facebook Like Button Below every Post
1. First Generate the Facebook code using the options below. (Code will be updated with these details)
<div>
<b:if cond='data:post.isFirstPost'>
<script>(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk'; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
d.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(js);
}(document));</script>
</b:if>
<fb:like expr:href="data:post.canonicalUrl" layout='standard' send='true' show_faces='false' font="arial" action="like" colorscheme="light"></fb:like>
</div>
2. Copy the Above code. Login to your Blogger Account and go to Design > Edit HTML and click on the check box which says “Expand Widget Templates”
3. Look for <data:post.body/> and immediately below that place the copied code.
4.Next you have to add the fb namespace to your template tag.Your template should have the specification for the fb tag that you have used. The following namespace declaration will take care of that. To declare the namespace, find
<html
and change it to
<html xmlns:fb="https://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"
The following screenshot will help you out.
This is necessary for all FBML widgets using the fb tag. So if you have already added the namespace while adding some other FB plugin, then you can skip this.
4. Now Save the template and you should see the Like Button near each of your posts. You are done :)
