Wordpress has many built-in plug-in that enables this feature easily. But Google Blogger users have to do this manually by editing their blog's template. It is not a difficult task and if you know a little bit of HTML/XML then it takes a few minutes. You need to follow these steps in order to make it happen:

  • First of all, I recommend you to take backup of your current template so that you can avoid any loss.
  • For backup, go to your Blogger dashboard. Click on template and then Backup/Restore on top-right side. Click on download full template and save it to your computer.
  • Now that you have taken the back up, it is time to choose a facebook button. Visit Facebook Developers page, it will show like the one below:

  • Enter the Facebook page URL and customize your like button style.
  • If you don’t want the send button to appear with the like button, uncheck the send button from above form.
  • When you are done with the customization, you need to click on get code. It would pop-up a window like this one:

Facebook like button code
  • Now copy the code shown above, it is the JavaScript code you need to put in the <body></body> tag. Press CTRL+F to find <body> and paste this code just below it.
  • Now copy the second code, if you want to put facebook like button at the end of every post you need to find this code first <data:post.body/>, if it is more than once try finding the last one.
  • Just after the last <data:post.body/> put the code you copied from facebook developer page.
  • Click on preview and make sure that everything is fine before saving.
  • Now click on Save Template and view any post. You will find facebook like at the end of every post.
  • If you want to put the like button in the beigning of every post you need to follow the same procedure but put the second code after this line
<div class='post-body entry-content' expr:id='&quot;post-body-&quot; + data:post.id' itemprop='articleBody'> instead of <data:post.body/>. You can use both of them as well for displaying it in the beginning and ending of your Article.
