Description: Add Responsive Facebook Like Box Widget into your Blogger blog. You can add Facebook like box into your Blogger sidebar and below to Blogger post content.
Do you want to add a responsive widget for your Facebook page like box into your Blogger? I am already using responsive Facebook like box into my blog. You can look over in the right sidebar under my social widget if you are a desktop user. If you are a mobile user, you can view my social widget above to the footer area. If you are a Blogger or have a small business, I highly recommend you to use your Facebook page like box into your website as it is the best way to expose your Facebook page in front of your audience, visitors and subscribers. The more exposure leads more likes and returns more fans. Today, users are more likely to visit websites using their Smartphone. You can't ignore your Smartphone's visitors because Smartphone has become the must have device for almost everyone. You should make your blog responsive so that different device's users can get better user interface. This blog has a responsive design so each section of this blog including widgets will also change its width according to the device resolution.
If you also have the responsive design, you shouldn't like to add fixed width Facebook like box. You can use responsive like box for non-responsive design too as it will calculate the width with the parent container. Therefore, if you have a responsive design you should use responsive Facebook like box so that it can fit in the parent container as the parent container is also responsive.
Go to Layout -> Add a Gadget (from sidebar or footer) -> Select HTML/JavaScript, and paste second code here. Finally click on save. Facebook like box added successfully.
If you wish to display your responsive Facebook box widget only in the post pages not in the homepage or label page, you will have to paste your second code within the line mention below,
If you want to hide your Facebook like box for other pages, here is a complete guide to hide or show any widget in Blogger.
