An International Facebook Like and Send Button Plugins can not directly be created at Facebook Developer page however we can tweak the code to change the language of the buttons to any country we choose. I previously shared a tutorial on how to add Facebook Like and Send buttons in blogger but those buttons were by default in English USA. Now suppose you live in England but run a Spanish blog. When you go to the Facebook developer page, you will be given a code that will let your users to share your posts in English but your users are from Spain and they will be much more satisfied with your work. In order to make things smoother for your visitors follow the simple steps below:
Facebook Like and Send Button in Different Languages
The Default button style and code for the XFBML version looks like this,
<div id="fb-root"></div><script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"></script><fb:like href="" send="true" layout="button_count" width="450" show_faces="false" font=""></fb:like>
The only part of the code that you will need to change is the language code en_US . Replace it with your local language code may that be Spanish, Urdu, Hindi, Turkish, French, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic or Romanian.
If you are using the Iframe version then you need to include a locale parameter with the proper country code in the src URL. For Example,
src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?locale=en_US&..."
Again you need to replace en_US with the local code.
PS: To accommodate different languages you will also need to change the width of the button.

ReplyDeleteThanks to you for the idea. Could you kindly share the Iframe version code for both like and send button here?
The problem is that it's not as simple as it sounds to add it to a standard web page. The "Send" button will only work if you use the XFBML version, not if you use the iframe code and most people don't have the ability to use the XFBML code because it requires adding some extra code in a couple of other places on the page as well.
ReplyDeleteIt's very misleading on the Facebook page and clicking the "Send" button box when you fill out the form for the iframe code will display the Send button on your page next to the Like button it won't actually work when someone clicks it
actually after little research i found we cannot use the iframe version of the send button because facebook does not support it. You have to use the javascript api and fbml version. Their documentation is a bit misleading. After this research and going through other sites info i have found and confirmed the iframe version of the send button is not yet supported.

ReplyDeleteI checked the codes in my test blog and found that whatever you said is undoubtedly right. I searched for a solution to the problem and came up with only one thing that the plugin Api were set to old Facebook's algorithms and with the recent change in plugins codes most library tags are not functioning as they previously did. I will wait till I find a better solution and will update the post. Thanks for confirming the problem.
Great help. Thanks
ReplyDeletethanks very much
