Default Facebook Like Box problem

Hey, guys!

I'm making final adjustments on my blog before officially relaunching it. I've just created a fan page for myself and added a facebook like box on a sidebar. The problem is that it doesn't work for some reason: instead of an actual fb like box, I get this message:

"Could not retrieve id for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in."

I'm not sure what's the problem, because it seems like I'm adding a correct url (Agota Bialobzeskyte | Facebook). Any ideas how to fix this?

Thank you!

Agota

I've been having issues with the Like button for my site, too. My site's page unpublishes itself every day, and the Like button stops working (it started doing that after a year of working consistently, I even got to 350 Likes). It's bad programming, and I think I am going to have to start a new page.

Maybe you have ideas how to fix this?

Are there any other plugins very similar to facebook like box?

I've fixed it using this:

Like Box - Facebook Developers

It generates two pieces of code which I put in the text widget on my sidebar (I added HTML and BODY tags to widget as well) and voila, you can now become my fans!

Thank you eveyone!

glad you got it fixed.

just... remove those html and body tags from the text widget. they don't belong there.
