Hey amiya, I am using this plugin on my website and it works very good there but on the same time it is very annoying that facebook popup pops up on every page I visit on my website. Can you introduce something in the plugin through which the plugin only pops up once a day (or doesn't pop up before some hours) for a particular IP. I know that I can also remove this popup through admin but I like this feature as well.

---

Ohh . This option is already there . Go to the option under Facebook likebox options - "Lifetime of the cookie (in days)"
This value is set to default 30 days . If you want to display daily then set it to 1 . It will popup once a day only . The Option "Display popup on every page load" is only kept for developers or if you want to see how it looks at the setup time . Not receomended on a live site .

---

this options is only depends upon browsers . Not IP addresses of users .

---

Will it popup for once a day for all users?? Like I visited the site then it should popup once and not again till a complete day but it should popup for other visitors for once as well...
I know I am asking stupid questions but I am confused between these...

---

I have set the value to 1 but still it is poping again and again...

---

Yes . Go to the option under Facebook likebox options - "Lifetime of the cookie (in days)" . set the value as 1 . It will show the popup once a day only .
And make sure you uncheck the "Display popup on every page load" option .

Thanks a lot amiya... Now its working as I wanted it to be...

Hi Ami,
Can you please help me with my issue? I want that the plugin displays the whole number of likes instead of 1K, 2K, etc. Here is my thread: http://www.question2answer.org/qa/57352/facebook-like-box-stuck-at-1k-likes

You are most welcome @rgd  .
I would like to Thank you for your feedback and I am glad that my plugin is useful for you .

Answer 2

It's good that you have made a Facebook like box plugin and have given all the adjustments in the admins panel only. But this can be done from administration panel before as well... But if you could introduce something like that we could have Facebook like box to be shown as a popup when someone visits our website then it could served as honey on pancakes.
Still its a nice plugin.

Comments

yes , you can place it anywhere you want from the Layout Admin Panel .
Facebook like box to be shown as a popup - I am working on this . Will be released soon .

Hi Gurjyot , Popup facebook like has been added . Please check .

If you are a programmer then it is not a big deal to add such features to your website . This plugin is made to help people who are not much familier with coding websites . So that they can add and configure it according to their needs .

Answer 4

Hi @amiyasahu .. Thanks a lot for giving such a nice plugin for free . It works fine on my site .  I liked the Modal that comes when a new user visits . And also lots of options are there to configure .

I would like to suggest one thing . Can you please add default options to the plugin so that it need not to be configured each time. When a new users installs , the defaults should work .  That would be much better .

Comments

Hi @Roberta . I am glad that this is helpful to you . I have added the default options in my last commit . Please download the latest version from github , the default options are included there . Thank you for your review .

Answer 5

Its really a useful plugin for me, thanks a lot @amiyasahu. I waited a lot some feature like the popup which is in this plugin of yours. And how many times the popup will take place in a day is also customisable that is just too awesome. On the whole this plugin is a great hit for me.

Comments
