Hi,

The Facebook social button is missing in the K2 article. How can I solve this? Also the page is loading constantly.

Hoi,
maybe you disabled , what is strange FB code is still there but not active.
Missing from beginning or just it happen...

I was missing from the begin. I also thought it was a setting. In the K2 settings Facebook is enabled in the categories and general settings. I can't find it to get this working.

1) Did you added URL with FB page in template settings, I'm trying to find out.. what is missing.
2) You're using current version of template, yes?

BTW
You can improve "Referenties" using those : OT testimonials slider or RokSprocket extension.
Do not worry they works with GK template also, I used them.

Hi.
I had the same problem.
You got gk_cache enabled?
Try disabling it.

exactly, sometimes social icons or other "small" elements needs cache refresh, system --> clear cache

Hi,

I have this problem when JFBConnect is enabled on the template.

Supportdesk JFBConnect:
There isn't a fix we could provide for that problem. Whatever is inserting the Facebook Like buttons is using the very old Facebook Javascript library (//connect.facebook.net/nl_NL/all.js#xfbml=1) which Facebook has deprecated and not recommended using for over a year now. The new Javascript library, which JFBConnect properly uses, is not compatible and cannot be loaded at the same time as the old Facebook Javascript library. If you want to use any Facebook functionality from JFBConnect, you'll need to disable the inclusion of that other library. You can still leave the buttons that the other extension is adding, but the Javascript must be removed. I hope that helps explain, Alex

How can I fix this for this template with a new javascript library? I need to use JFBConnect and the social plugin of the template?

Regards,

Bruce

I guess first step will be removing / disabling all social elements from GK template --> gk_events\layouts\blocks\social.php
and maybe somewhere else also.
Then, you can use want you need for example JFBConnect.

But in general we don't help in php customizations.
