That's a really nice feature that I wanted to have on my site. I downloaded the new plugins for Joomla 1.5 and installed them ... How do I get them to show up like that?

Right now, the extra social buttons are only available in the content plugin for Joomla articles and K2 items. You can enable them in the Social Configuration area in the "Content Plugin - Like" and "Content Plugin - K2 Like" tabs.

For the 4.1 release, we're planning to add the ability to include those buttons either through the JFBCLike module, {JFBCLike} tags, or something similar.

Hope that explains, but if you need anything else, just let us know!

Alex ... thanks so much for the great upgrade! I have enable the buttons but they are staking on top of each other instead of left to right... see example link (bottom of page) I also added a screenshot:

Thanks again and keep up the excellent work!

Mark,
It's likely the width of the Like button that you're using. In the content plugin, change it's width (I think it defaults to 250) to something like 100. Even though, in your picture, it looks like it can easily fit, since it's in an iFrame, the extra width is reserved for the widget anyways and the browser's automatically bringing it down to the next line... I think :)

Let us know, and thanks for compliments on 4.0. We're excited to finally get it out, and already planning 4.1 :)
