Hello Oliver,

This is an Facebook issue and it does not depend directly on WebSite X5. IF you test the plugin directly on the Facebook Developer Site by adding your URL you will notice the same result:

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/

It seems that Facebook is not sending to the Like Box big images and they have to be reduced to max 300px to work.

Please feel free to write back if you need more information.

Hello Claudio!

Thanks for your reply. I found that images are displayed when the style is modified in this way:

.photoWrap {

  height: 100% !important;

  width: auto;

}

So any chance to get this implemented (by default) in WebSite X5 or shall I put it in the header of my home page?

Hello Oliver,

The code won't work because the facebook plugin is loaded into an iframe and you cannot style the content of it from your page but it needs to be done in the original page which is on facebook.

The issue you experience has already been reported ad bug to the facebook developers as you can see here:

https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/723454951004368

The only option is to wait that facebook fixes this issue.

Many thanks!

Hello Claudio,

OK, Thanks! There is a workaround: Images smaller than 390px will be displayed.
