Hello,
I have setup one facebook request link,
but nothing happens when I click the link, test here: infinitemandala.com/index.php?option=com...&view=article&id=150

the code I inserted in the page is this one
{JFBCRequest request_id=1 link_text="La Sfera di Energia" - il potere delle energie sottili al servizio dell'essere umano}

I also have the {JFBCLogin} tag in the page, but the login

I ran autotune and everything seems fine there,
I attach the error I see in Google chrome console.

I have nonumber modal installed, not sure if this can cause a conflict for the facebook popup window

Thanks

First, please note that Facebook changed how requests work last year and your site can only send them if the Facebook Application you created is in the "Games" category. Any other category and Facebook will not allow requests to be sent. It's an annoying change, but not one we have control of.

If you are in the Games category, then the Javascript error you show is part of the problem. You can't use double-quotes in the link_text. Can you update that tag to:
{JFBCRequest request_id=1 link_text='La Sfera di Energia' - il potere delle energie sottili al servizio dell'essere umano}
See if that works? If you still get a JS error, remove the single quotes altogether, just to test if that works.

Thanks,
Alex

Pity :-(. I changed the category to games, although my app is not a game, let's see what happens.

I removed completely the quotes, still not working.

Can you go into the Request in the backend and see if there are any quotes in title field? Looking at the source on the page, there are still extra quotes coming from the request title somehow.
