adding a ‘simple’ plug-in for facebook ‘like’ button
It must be because it has been a long, frustrating week. Why else would something that is called a ‘simple’ facebook plug-in for word press be anything but simple. The author’s site even says “Facebook Connect is somewhat difficult to integrate with WordPress sites. Many plugins exist to do this, but they are overly complicated, or have security problems, or just plain don’t do the things you want them to do. It doesn’t have to be this way.”
He’s right. It shouldn’t be. After all, this is supposed to be the enlightened age of computer where everything is quick and easy.

If you find a post of mine that you like, just share it in your facebook link. Thanks…
Update: I hate leaving things unfinished. So I deactivated all the ‘Simple Facebook Plugin” modules, logged out, rebooted, logged in, reactivated the plugins. TA-DA! A Facebook ‘Like’ button appeared. It was so #$%#&#$%%# simple ….
