``` * and hit “Update File” * 4.) on your dashboard go to `WP-Connect -> Like Box` and set `http://www.facebook. com/pages/The-4th-Official/194869573877259` as the `Like Box URL` * and hit “Save Changes” Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘[Plugin ; WordPress Conect] – incorrect Like value’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/wordpress-connect.svg) * [Wordpress Connect](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-connect/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-connect/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-connect/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-connect/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-connect/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-connect/reviews/) * 7 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [scibuff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scibuff/) * Last activity: [14 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-conect-incorrect-like-value/#post-2111715) * Status: resolved
