How to Insert Facebook Like Button in Every Blogger Post

Add this code after the <body> tag in the template (Template -> Edit HTML):

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
  js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>


Find this line:

<div class='post-footer'>

and insert this code after it:

<div class="fb-like" expr:data-href='data:post.canonicalUrl' data-send="true" data-width="450" data-show-faces="true"></div>

    1. Search for <body instead of <body>.

      Sometimes this tag contains attributes (see example above).

  5. Hi! I already have a twitter like button in my footer, so when I try to add the FB Like button there also, it doesn't show up and cuts off some of my Twitter button? Could you tell me how to post things side-by-side in the footer? Thanks!!

    1. Maybe you should try to add <br /> tag after the code you add to the post-footer. Also you may try to add the code before the <div class='post-footer'>.

  20. After changing my template, it took me a long time searching for info on how to bring back the FB like and share button on http://mommywrites.blogspot.com. You know, yours is the only blog I saw that is easy to follow and has codes that work.

    I wonder why Facebook's explanations on its page seem very complicated and hard to understand. Anyhow, I'm glad I saw your blog. Thank you very much for the helpful instructions!

  22. Hi there - I'm having some trouble. I think I must have other code that is "blocking" this from working somehow? Any suggestions on what to search for and perhaps remove? If it helps determine the problem, my feed button at bottom of each post seems to just be decoration. Here is link to my blog if seeing it helps. Thanks so much! http://www.myrealitybit.com/

  23. Hi Mary, You can add the same in Header as well! . Search for "div class='post-header'". You may find more than one times in the HTML template. Just paste the code below the second or the last post header

    You can check www.recipelisted.com for ref.

  27. By Default, the theme I used has a "Share Button". Should I still implement the first part?
    I tried to use the code given above but had no luck on making it a success. Any ideas on this?
    Also tried AddThis or ShareThis just to come up with a like button but had no luck on that as well.

    Thanks!
