If you facebook tab shows the following error message your Facebook ID is incorrect:
Could not retrieve id for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in.
Check that you are using a facebook page ID and not your facebook profile ID – the like box is specifically for facebook pages.
To get the page ID, browse to your facebook page and check the URL in the browser address bar. The ID is the last number in the URL:

Hi Lee,
I had the plug in working and when I updated it I lost everything. Now, when I try to put my Facebook id or Twitter info in, it won’t take it. Please help.
Thank you,
Tammy
I do have a Facebook Page ID but still get the same “Could not retrieve id for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in.” the page is facebook.com/cadhac
Hi,
what ID are you trying to use?
I’m using “cadhac” since the URL for the FB page is
https://www.facebook.com/cadhac
But it doesn’t work
If you use the URL given in the FAQ – Getting your facebook ID using your facebook username you get an ID of – 114117618700959
I love this plug-in!! The one glitch I’ve found is that the client I’m creating a site for has a personal Facebook profile page, and not a business page. Is there any way to have that kind of page work with this plug-in, or do I need to have him create a business page?
Thanks!
Hi,
The facebook like box is only for facebook pages. Unfortunately they arent for individual profiles
Thanks — and no way to make this work with the new subscriptions feature?
As far as Im aware the new subscription button is only for your facebook profiles, not for use in other websites. I may be wrong however!
In addition the button is only valid for profiles, not pages – the facebook like box used in this widget shows facebook pages
I had to click on ‘edit page’ to get the ID number to come up, but I FINALLY figured it out (thanks to you!)!!! Now, to just figure out how to configure my RSS feed…
Hi to configure the RSS feed you just need to enter the feed URL in the text field in the widget control panel
