.fbplbadge {background-color:#3B5998;display: block;height: 150px;top: 50%;margin-top: -75px;position: absolute;left: -47px;width: 47px;background-image: url("https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxpgtmMpYS70rMZjtGDyQ6F-miahl-efEH1o7r97BiX38Yp-pTRkM4O5Y4lx7J8_EAF0-And8ir7J9Yq2lxCFQYZBXQWi187m9vulwTtpt3DBx1KlxLT9rPDUoOpdR6LCIPjG50Yrcarg/s1600/vertical-right.png");background-repeat: no-repeat;overflow: hidden;-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 8px;-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 8px;-moz-border-radius-topleft: 8px;-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 8px;border-top-left-radius: 8px;border-bottom-left-radius: 8px;}
/*]]>*/
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
(function(w2b){
w2b(document).ready(function(){
var $dur = "medium"; // Duration of Animation
w2b("#fbplikebox").css({right: -250, "top" : 100 })
w2b("#fbplikebox").hover(function () {
w2b(this).stop().animate({
right: 0
}, $dur);
}, function () {
w2b(this).stop().animate({
right: -250
}, $dur);
});
w2b("#fbplikebox").show();
});
})(jQuery);
/*]]>*/
</script>
<div id="fbplikebox" style="display:none;">
<div class="fbplbadge"></div>
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=YOUR-FACEBOOK-PAGE&width=250&height=250&colorscheme=light&show_faces=true&border_color=%23C4C4C4&stream=false&header=false" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:250px; height:250px;background:#FFFFFF;" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>
</div>
7. Replace YOUR-FACEBOOK-PAGE text above with the URL of your facebook fan page.
Also replace the : symbol in your URL with %3A and / with %2F
For example, my facebook fan page is:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Helplogger/120574614736021
After replacing the characters above, your facebook fan page should look like this:
http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2FHelplogger%2F120574614736021
Other settings (optional):
- to change the width and height of the facebook box, change the bolded values (250)
- to change the background color of the facebook fan box, replace #FFFFFF with the hex code of your color (you can choose it from here)
- if you want to change the color of the facebook badge (facebook button) replace this code #3B5998
with your own.
8. Now you can save your widget. Enjoy!
