Hello.

I am looking to now add a facebook link into the footer.
For example, click here to like us on Facebook.

What would be the best way of accomplishing this?

Thanks
Paul

This is the code fb gave me.

<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=standard&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

I just have no idea where to put it.

Hi there 🙂

First go to the wordpress dash board.

And go to the widget area and put the ‘text widget’ on the footer widget area.

If you make it done, insert the code and then ckeck it on your operated web site.

Thanks.

That seems to work, but its not centered.

Do you know the iframe code that I need to make it centered?

Thanks

I tried this in the iframe code, but it’s not working

<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=button&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true";align="center"></iframe>

add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );

function function_name( $return_value ) {

	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center">hello world</p>';
	$html_after	 = '<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=button&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true";align="center"></iframe>';

It works until I add the content from the existing function.php file

Old file was:

<?php
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );
function function_name( $return_value ) {
        $return_value = '';
	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center;color:red;">©2014 ALL-Serve Niagara</p>';

	return $html_before . $return_value ;
}

So I merged the two and made this:

<?php
// facebook code start
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );

function function_name( $return_value ) {

	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center">hello world</p>';
	$html_after	 = '<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=button&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true";align="center"></iframe>';

	return $html_before . $return_value . $html_after;
}
// facebook code end
?><?php
/**
 * functions and constants for Raindrops theme
 *
 *
 * @package Raindrops
 * @since Raindrops 0.1
 */
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {

	exit;
}
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );
function function_name( $return_value ) {
        $return_value = '';
	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center;color:red;">©2014 ALL-Serve Niagara</p>';

	return $html_before . $return_value ;
}

But then I get an error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare function_name() (previously declared in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas04_data02/42/2342542/html/wp-content/themes/raindrops-child/functions.php:5) in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas04_data02/42/2342542/html/wp-content/themes/raindrops-child/functions.php on line 31

Each code on its own works fine, put them together, and somewhere I am messing it up.

Thanks for all you assistance so far.

You should learn the basics of PHP

SO, I merged the code into the functions.php
Receive an error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare function_name() (previously declared in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas04_data02/42/2342542/html/wp-content/themes/raindrops-child/functions.php:5) in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas04_data02/42/2342542/html/wp-content/themes/raindrops-child/functions.php on line 33

Can I just add a “1” to the end of the function name?

Heres my new functions.php:

<?php
// facebook code start
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );

function function_name( $return_value ) {

	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center">hello world</p>';
	$html_after	 = '<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=button&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true";align="center"></iframe>';

	return $html_before . $return_value . $html_after;
}
// facebook code end
?><?php
/**
 * functions and constants for Raindrops theme
 *
 *
 * @package Raindrops
 * @since Raindrops 0.1
 */
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {

	exit;
}

//remove start
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );
function function_name( $return_value ) {
        $return_value = '';
	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center;color:red;">©2014 ALL-Serve Niagara</p>';

	return $html_before . $return_value ;
}
//remove end

Many thanks
Paul

Ok ,nobita.

Did some studying.
I was able to trim the code to this:

<?php
add_filter( 'raindrops_footer_text', 'function_name' );

function function_name( $return_value ) {
        $return_value = '';
	$html_before = '<p style="text-align:center;color:red;">©2014 ALL-Serve Niagara</p>';
	$html_after	 = '<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fallserveniagara&width&layout=button&action=like&show_faces=false&share=true&height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true";align="center"></iframe>';

	return $html_before . $return_value . $html_after;
}
?>

And it all seems fine, however, if you look at the footer:
allserveniagara.ca

You will see the FB iframe is not centered?

Any ideas how to adjust that?
