    The Like Module

    With the Like module, users can Like any Facebook Page you link to with one click.

    Adding Like Modules to Oracle Social Marketing Content & Apps Views

    All modules are added to a View in the same way with our drag-and-drop interface. To get more information on this, see the Building a View: Adding Modules and Content to Views in Content & Apps help article.

    Once you have added a module and given it a name, the module will open for you to edit it or add content. Back on the View layout, you'll see a callout bubble next to your module - click the triangle for controls for your module. This callout will not appear on your published View and your new module will not appear on your Facebook Tab until you click Publish.

    Adding Facebook Pages to Like Modules

    When you drag-and-drop a Like module onto a View, it will automatically open to the edit page for that module. To add a Facebook page to a module you've already created:

    1. Next to your Like module you’ll see a callout bubble. Click the green triangle next to the title to show your options.
    2. Click the Edit Module button. You will be taken to the Edit Like section.
    3. To choose which Facebook page you want the Like button to link to, select it from the drop-down menu next to Facebook Page. Only pages that you are an admin of will appear in this menu.
    4. If you want to change the style of the Like button, choose from the drop-down list next to Like Button Style. You can choose from three styles: standard (wide) layout, horiztonal condensed, and vertical condensed.
    5. You can choose to display the the profile pic of the users who click the Like button. Select the check box next to Display Profile Pic.

      Note: This only applies to the standard layout style.

    6. If you would like text before or after the Like button, enter it in the Preamble and/or Postamble text fields.
    7. Once you are finished configuring the module, click the Update button.

    Your module will now appear on your View with a Like button. If users have already liked the page, the number of users who have liked it will appear and up to five user pics will also be displayed.

    Customizing a Like Module

    All customization happens in the brand CSS page.

    All modules take up 100% of the containers they are in, so you can resize them to whatever size you need with CSS.
