Is anyone familiar with Facebook social media plugins, specifically creating Like Buttons that included Open Graph tags? Familiar in this case means…tell me what I’m doing wrong. Compared to what I’ve done on The Athenaeum, this should be so easy, but… to quote a movie, “This damn thing doesn’t work at all!”
I’m investigating the possibility of putting FB Like buttons in stories…probably new ones only, with the writers approval, and only if there is little or no additional work to do it. I’d like to set it up so that when a person clicks the like button on a story, FB ‘story’ will appear on their newsfeed complete with Title, Author, Site name, and description/teaser.
I’ve created a test page: http://xenafiction.net/test/Story_Test_7.cfm
When I click the Like button, it flashes the comment box for an instant, and then I get a red Error linking to a page that reads “Sorry, this feature isn't available right now: An error occurred while processing this request. Please try again later.”
It’s been doing that for about a day now. I've searched for solutions to this problem, but...so far nothing has helped.
Here’s the link to the FB Debugger for the test story –

Any help would be appreciated.
...or is the whole idea not worth any effort?
