 * being surfing a while on a topic.
 * site : [http://www.udaipurtimes.com](http://www.udaipurtimes.com)
 * The problem is, I have a WordPress site and I’ve used FB Share and FB Like plugins(
   free) for displaying on each posts. I also have a fan page of the website where
   I regularly update about every post I do on website. But for example if someone
   like that post on FB fanpage, then it dosen’t reflect on to my website’s Fb Like
   counter.
 * Example, If one post receives 10 likes on FB fanpage, then that same post on 
   my website just have 2 likes. Basically, I want to sync these like between my
   website’s post and the post that I link then to Fb fanpage.
 * Do revert back to this. Anything from your end would be helpful. Thanks in Advance.

 * Can’t do it. FaceBook has no way to sync it’s content on it’s site (i.e. your
   updates posted on FB) with your content on your site (i.e. your post).

 * Not their likes, they’re not.
 * As you described it you are:
    1) Posting an article on your WP site. 2) Reposting
   that (either as a link or a note) on your FB site.
 * And you want the likes from #1 and #2 to be combined? Ain’t gonna happen.
 * RIGHT NOW, HuffPo has an article on how the face of homelessness is changing.
   On FB they have about 90 likes. On their OWN site that same article has over 
   500.
 * If that’s not what you’re trying to do, then I apologize for misreading your 
   statement. Could you rehprase?

 * Am sorry.
    You are right. I also read Fb’s documentation and there is also no
   mentioning of any such thing.
 * But I can clearly recall a post somewhere on web which explained how the share
   button (on that post AddThis’s FB Share button was used) is summing up the Likes
   + Shares + Comments and showing the total in the counter. I guess, it would be
   some old news, right ?
 * And those Likes + Shares + Comments total was fetched from Fb Fan Page and the
   counter on the website was showing that total.
 * Example: Post titled “ABC” was posted on a website, then it’s URL was shared 
   on the website’s Facebook Fan Page. Now, if that entry on Fb Fanpage gets 2 Likes,
   3 shares and 5 comments; then the share button on the website would show 10 (
   2+3+5).
 * Just let me know if it’s possible, or am dreaming !
    Because I know it’s nearly
   hypothetical. But wanted to ask you (once again !) Thanks for your consistent
   replies.

 * I think you’re referring to what FB did. They merged their links and shares buttons
   so they use the same one.
 * The only way to have likes show the total for ‘multiple’ sites is if they all
   have the same web address. [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7021057/how-to-combine-likes-for-same-content-available-in-two-languages-on-bilingual-si](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7021057/how-to-combine-likes-for-same-content-available-in-two-languages-on-bilingual-si)
