Question

Background: I have implemented a normal Facebook Like Button to my page using XFBML. This is the button.

<div class="fb-like" data-send="false" data-width="450" data-show-faces="false"></div>

I left out the src because the page is dynamic and I bind the src using jquery while the page loads.

$(".fb-like").attr("data-href", document.URL);

I subscribed an event to the button to do some data processing.

FB.Event.subscribe('edge.create',
    function (response) {
        console.log("like: " + response);
        LikeUrl(response);
        console.log('like: ' + location.href);
    });

Problem: I have click the like button to like for example this url: http://www.google.com/. Normally when I execute the following FQL

https://graph.facebook.com/fql?access_token=access_token&q=SELECT url FROM url_like where user_id=me()

it will return

{
   "data": [
      {
        "url": "http://www.google.com/"
      }
    ]
}

instead it returns empty data

{
  "data": [
  ]
}

So I checked

https://graph.facebook.com/me/og.likes

and it is found there.

This is my first question on stackoverflow. Please tell if the information is not sufficient.

thanks!

This could be related to the Like Button migration that was recently announced. You can read more about the Like Page Migration on Facebook. I think it’s basically FB seperating Pages from Likes on the Open Graph.
