I am having the exact same problem. I have tried 3-4 different plugins and 2 different themes (including Twenty Ten)… When I click the Like button it first apperars to register the like but when you refresh the page it’s like nothing happened.
Seems like it’s happening everywhere… I’ve just tried it on another site (problogger).
Helo,
Have you already find the solution? I’ve the same problem.

I believe it was indeed a problem at Facebook’s end. Issue is fixed now.
I got the same problem, tried the same problem but it didn’t help. It turns out to be a bug in the plugin.
Before passing the URL of the post to the like button that URL needs to be encoded.
Here is the fix. Edit the plugin and find the following code:
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href='.$link.'
Replace it with:
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href='.urlencode($link)
As you can see it works fine now, see example here:

Here is the fix. Edit the plugin and find the following code:
<iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=’.$link.’
Replace it with:
<iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=’.urlencode($link)
Still having this issue in latest version of this plugin.
I tried the above but it doesnt work, are you sure the code detailed is exactly correct?
Hope someone can help,
Thanks

It fixed the issue in my case. Once again the code:
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href='.$link.'
Replace it with:
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href='.urlencode($link).'
So basically the only thing you need to do here is replace the “$link” with “urlencode($link)”.
Hope it helps.
Thanks again Radek I’ve tried your suggestion and edited the code but the “like” still isnt registering.
The “1” shows then quickly disappears.
Can you provide a link to your page?
today same problem on my site… tried all plugins but nothing hppnd..
having the same problem on http://grolschblockparty.se/
you click “like” but nothing is logged on facebook
Try Shareaholic! Is not the like buton, but works for fb. It’s a nice tab, that can be customized.
Hi all,
release 1.6.2 of the Really Simple Facebook Twitter Share Buttons plugin is out, fixing the Facebook Like button recent issues.
Many of you noticed that the button wasn’t always working, due to an update on the Facebook side, which has limited the accepted url format.
As Radek Maciaszek (thanks!) correctly figured out, the issue is solved encoding the url. Please update your plugin… and forgive our delay, we’re on vacation!
