This is a known issue with JomSocial and how it sets some Open Graph tags incorrectly. We've reported it to them and I think they have fixed this is a newer release. Not sure if you're on the latest.

Either way, you can read about the problem and how to fix it in this thread .

I hope that helps get you going,
Alex

I did the edits that mel explain in other post.
But the error is still there on profiles that dont have a URL in contact details...
At the profiles that have URL in contact details- its looks good on my website but there is no activity on Facebook. All in all I would say it completly doesnt work...

Ahh.. You didn't mention before that it's the users without the URL set. Update the code like:

$cuser = CFactory::getUser(); 
$data = $cuser->getInfo('FIELD_XXXX'); 
if ($data != "")
  echo "{SCFacebookLike href=" . $data . "}"; 
else
  echo "{SCFacebookLike href=https://facebook.com/sourcecoast}";
?>

That first 'if' statement will check if the field is blank. If not, it will use the profile field. If it is blank, whatever URL you put will be used. You can leave the else and 2nd echo off if you only want the Like button to display if the user has set the URL field.

I hope that helps,
Alex

I just noticed that you're calling:

CFactory::getUser();

This returns the currently logged in user. I believe that you should be able to pass in the ID of the user whose profile you're looking at, such as the following:

CFactory::getUser($id);

However, you'll have to figure out how to get the ID of the user you're viewing.

They are the ones that supplied the original code above for getting the user information. Yes, I'd recommend asking them how to get the user ID of the profile being viewed, not the ID of the viewer.

Thanks,
Alex
