Is there a way to remove like count in Facebook Like Box widget?

I kn开发者_StackOverflow中文版ow that tampering with their widget isn't allowed but how do sites like these hide their like counts and it doesn't seem like the widget has been edited. Is there a proper way to do this?

They're adding a height=427 parameter to the IFRAME URL, which results in the "faces" area at the bottom, and its accompanying fan count, being hidden from view. They're keeping show_faces=true because otherwise the Like count will be written next to the Like button.

There's a slightly weird double-line at the bottom as a result of this approach, but while earlier I wrote it was undocumented, the doc actually references the height param (it's just not in the plugin generator form), so it appears this is supported.

To make Like Boxes I still just goto Facebook's "generator" here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/.

When your putting in settings you uncheck "Show Faces".

This changes the resulting code they give you to: show_faces=false.

It's because they're using a Like Box, not a Like Button.

These are two different things, and the individual like buttons in a Like Box don't have the counts when "show faces" is enabled (though the counts are instead displayed elsewhere in the box).

Note: This answer is assuming you mean the Share Button, and not Like Box

They used a Facebook provided CSS to make the elements have a CSS property of display: none;.

On the span elements with the classes:

fb_share_count_nub_right
fb_share_count

Add the class fb_share_no_count on both of them.
