Facebook Like Field

Microsoft Office SharePoint users who handle multiple document libraries or listings might be on the lookout for a solution that could allow them to integrate the Facebook “Like” button in such scenarios.

Facebook Like Field is an application that was developed in order to provide people with the means to add fully-functional Facebook “Like” buttons in their SharePoint listings or document libraries.

It will allow them to add columns to the said lists or document libraries, where a “Like” button is assigned to every corresponding list entry or document.

Featuring a straightforward installation process, the application offers a dedicated settings module where one can configure the characteristics of the “Like” button to the specified requirements. To this end, the developer advises users to refer to the Facebook Development guide, which can assist them in the process of customizing the buttons.

Facebook Like Field permits people to access three separate layouts for the “Like” buttons, two different color schemes, configurable fonts and several other options. In an attempt to facilitate the implementation of “Like” buttons for such items in Extranet scenarios, the utility will allow people to perform the “Like” assignment process without having write permissions.

Users have the choice of displaying the “Send” button and configuring the width of the profile images of those who have liked the selected content. Experienced users might be happy to know that Asynchronous AJAX loading is also supported by the application.
