Why are you asking it twice?

Facebook "Retweet" Feature Demonstration on Vimeo


Is a video that shows you how to use it.

And read this comment:

I don't think most of the features that Facebook is rolling out can be termed as "twitterfication." Although I do see that they are getting idea from Twitter, the way they are implementing it is commendable.
As you already know Nick, this little feature can be huge, especially for Facebook fanpage as it add a huge element to viral growth. Before this anytime someone shared something from a fanpage or profile, they would have to manually give credit which many didn't even know how. Now it will give credit by default and funny thing is although there is an option to remove the credit, many won't know how. So it's a good thing cause just like in the world of blogs an article should link where it's due, in the world of social networks and information exchange, credit should be give in any form and this new feature certainly make it easier.
All in all, I think Facebook isn't trying to be Twitter or take their thunder. They are just choosing the best aspects of it and how it can complement their business model. After all, although Facebook has over 350 million members, their main core revenue target is businesses which usually comes through fanpages and with this feature the visibility is much more than what it used to be.
Sorry for the long comment but just had to share my thoughts on this. If anyone thinks Facebook is stealing from Twitter, they are doing it very well and doing it in a way it compliments their business. What makes Facebook what it is today is the compilation of these little features, they are gold for small businesses and brands.






So you still have to use the "share" feature.

Also check the above link out. That may be the application that is needed, if the share button thing doesn't work.


Other than that, I have to advise you not to post the same thing twice or more on the forum, just because others did not respond right away. that can get all of your threads removed, and if you continue doing that, could get you banned for spam. So watch out for that.

Alright. Give an example of a facebook page that has this thing you are talking about, so I can take a look at it directly, because I'm not going to search around facebook for pages, just to find a button.

I see your problem is applying the code, not finding it. The only way I can think of to do what you're talking about is maybe to place the button within an RSS feed and then post the RSS feed onto your fan page. I haven't tried it so I can't guarantee anything but it might work.

Have you tried this?
here it tells you EXACTLY what to do:

This is for WORDPRESS. You keep on jumping around from facebook to wordpress to all kinds of things. That link and it's advice is pretty straight forward. You are trying to add it to the RSS, you should be adding it to your " /wp-content/plugins/ directory" by the sounds of it. Then you should activate the plugin, using the steps mentioned in the link there.


This also tells you how to integrate that into the posts directly:

Alright, last night I made a facebook fan page just to test out all of these codes and whatnot else. And after reading this post a few times:

This Is How You Retweet On Facebook – Can You Do It?


I am beginning to think that this may be true, that this application was being tested and may not be available just yet for you or me. Much like youtube now has a new user interface, that many warriors have yet to see.

You tube changed their entire interface, it's completely different, but many people haven't seen it yet. So it's yet to get around.


But this post is from January, so it's a few months old now. So that either means that facebook removed this from testing, and may put it back later, or that I am wrong here on that.

the closest I have gotten so far is finding the widget to create the button in the first place...


Sharing Widget, Sharing Button, Sharing Plugin - ShareThis

Now im just trying to figure out if the code can be added and applied to facebook or not.

I have also figured out how to add a widget to facebook, so now all I need to do is find that widget code, and figure out how to get the code working on a facebook fan page.


Once I have done that, I think it will finally work, and then I can finally tell you how to add that to your page.

It sounds to me as if people are doing this through their blogs, by uploading blog posts that have the re-tweet installed there, then the image itself is showing up as the re-tweet me image.

Here's another thing to try: Get the Facebook app Social RSS, you should then be able to create a feed which (hopefully) would include the widget.

Alright. The page you showed is obviously complex. I have now even been reading about creating a facebook BUSINESS fan page, and the images and everything else on that page, are COMPLEX. I mean this chick has a squeeze page and everything on there. She has many things going on, so whoever made her page, has obviously been working online for a while with design.


Is it possible to get this chick to at least tell you who designs this page? I mean how can a person not at least find out the company who creates stuff for them? ?!?!


I'd like to know about it too, because they have all kinds of things going on for that page, that even twitter doesn't have on their own page on facebook. So whoever designed this is definitely advanced, as it's difficult to even find such intricate information for creating pages on facebook online even without the re-tweet button!


So don't feel dumb, that's a really good question here, getting this stuff done. It also hasn't really been addressed anywhere else online, and I have concluded that after reading and reading and reading some more and finding nothing even close.

The retweet button you have seen is a Wordpress plugin. It doesn't exist on Facebook. nuff said!

LOL Jason, get your mind over here and help her out again! LOL... please?

Jessica,

I'd be happy to take a look inside your WP Dashboard and install the plugin for you. Are you allowed to send a PM? If yes, send over your WordPress URL and details and I'll get right on it.

Nothing better than helping a fellow Warrior

Here ya go:

Check here for info:

TweetMeme Blog More Buttons, More Retweet

Check Here for the Code:

Email Buttons | Tweetmeme Help

They aren't status updates. They are Facebook Notes. So you write a note with the code you need from the second page on the top of the note. I tested it out and the button showed up just fine.

This would be the code you want to use.

Go to Facebook and create a new "Note". Give it a title and in the "Body" section copy this code. Now you have to replace the 2 instances of:

...with your actual URL you want retweeted. What that person is doing is writing a blog post. Then they are making a note on their Facebook profile with that same blog post underneath that code from above (you can use HTML in the body of a note). The retweet button isn't retweeting their status but the blog post itself.

I suppose you could retweet your Facebook note but you would have to create it first, get the url of the note, go back and edit it again putting the code above it with your new url (not tested but should work in theory).

I just noticed you want this whole thing automated. Hmmm, well that is a different story then. I would have to look into it.
