Title: [Plugin: Simple Facebook Connect] Extra http:// and trailing / Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Simple Facebook Connect] Extra http:// and trailing / * [geekgoodgirl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekgoodgirl/) * (@geekgoodgirl) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/) * I have installed this on 4 blogs. It works fine on the first one but the other 3 have an extra http:// and / for the facebook share button. Do you know what might be causing that? * Thanks Tanya Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * Moderator [Samuel Wood (Otto)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otto42/) * (@otto42) * WordPress.org Admin * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1826962) * Nope. I’d have to see the site itself. Got a link? * Thread Starter [geekgoodgirl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekgoodgirl/) * (@geekgoodgirl) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1826973) * [http://www.geekgoodgirl.com/](http://www.geekgoodgirl.com/) is where it is working fine. Here are 2 of the other sites where it is doing the extra: [http://www.gotbaddog.com/](http://www.gotbaddog.com/) and [http://www.gotbuddy.com/](http://www.gotbuddy.com/) * Moderator [Samuel Wood (Otto)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otto42/) * (@otto42) * WordPress.org Admin * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827150) * … Yeah, okay, that’s just weird. It doesn’t make any sense, because that broken URL isn’t on the page anywhere. The code being produced by the plugin is correct. Looks like Faceboook is messing up, but I haven’t the faintest idea how to fix it. * Thread Starter [geekgoodgirl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekgoodgirl/) * (@geekgoodgirl) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827165) * Thanks, that is what it looked like to me too. I will try deleting the app from them and start over. Strange that it worked for the first site and not the other 3. Also that the connect and like links work just not the share. * [sing2zing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sing2zing/) * (@sing2zing) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827269) * This is happening to me as well. The link is posted on facebook but with the extra http:// the link does not work. I’ve tried changing the location in the app removing the [http://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/?output_format=md), saving changes, but it comes back automatically. * [http://www.stoopphilly.com](http://www.stoopphilly.com) * Moderator [Samuel Wood (Otto)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otto42/) * (@otto42) * WordPress.org Admin * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827270) * It’s happening to everybody, and it’s not a problem with the plugin. I’ve seen it happen on many sites running the share button but not running my plugin as well. * In other words, it’s a generic Facebook problem and there’s nothing I can do about it. * [sing2zing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sing2zing/) * (@sing2zing) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827274) * I used the Share on Facebook plugin and it works fine. geekgoodgirl, your [http://www.geekgoodgirl.com](http://www.geekgoodgirl.com) site is inserting the extra http:// as well. * Moderator [Samuel Wood (Otto)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otto42/) * (@otto42) * WordPress.org Admin * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-facebook-connect-extra-http-and-trailing/#post-1827302) * Workaround for this, for now. If you use the non-XFBML way of creating the button, it seems to work better. Facebook isn’t supporting XFBML very well anymore, so they just aren’t fixing their broken code much. * Anyway, add this to your wp-config file: `define('SFC_SHARE_USE_XFBML',false);` * This makes SFC-Share use an alternate approach, which seems to work better and not have this problem.
