With version 2.1 the Like Button can be inserted anywhere in the post or page, most pre-set parameters can be overridden. If you prefer the classic before/after positioning you can disable the display of the button with the new Facebook Like Button Box edit screen.
Internationalization came with this version as well, right now English and Deutsch are supported. Please help to make Kouguu more international by submitting your language .mo file.

Seems to be an excellent Plugin, but I get a fatal error when activating the plugin (WP 2.92):
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘{‘ in … kouguu-fb-like.php on line 26
I think the reason is PHP 5?
thx and best regards, Johannes
Hi Johannes, as you already guessed this error is thrown when you use PHP 4: The try{} catch{} block is not recognized by PHP<5.
If you want to fix this you can delete lines 26 and 80-82 and the plugin should work, please let me know if this fixes your problem, maybe I will change it permanently for the sake of backwards compatibility.
Hi, sorry no, I’ve tried, but next fatal error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in …/plugins/kouguu-fb-like/library/kouguu/form.class.php on line 5
but looks a little bit better
thank you!
Oh, sorry, now I’ve changed to PHP 5.2.11 and all works fine
thank you once mor!
herzlichst johannes
Glad to hear that, Johannes!
Hi,
very nice plugin. Is it possible to insert the shortcode into the home.php of my theme? I have inserted it after the post date code, but is doesn’t work.
Hi Davis
The shortcode is only rendered if you include it in your post/page, not in the template files (*.php). I will expose a function you can use in the template files with the revision of the plugin so stay tuned.
Best, Nicolas
First of all: Thank you for sharing!
What I would really like to see is an option to show the button only with »posts«, on »startpage«, »pages« and so on. Even better if one could define to show it only in certain categories.
A refinement of the standard-placement would also be fine (padding aso.)
Dear Harald
You can change padding etc. with the css file in /kouguu-like/css. You can set the button-display of a particular post on the post’s editor screen, but I will include the idea of mapping certain categories for the next version.
Thanks for your ideas!
Show Friends Faces does not appear to be working (showing their photos) on my site. This was working before we updated to the latest version. Is there a known issue here or should I reinstall?
