Facebook Share Button does nothing

Open NickHodges opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

As far as I can tell the FacebookShareButton does nothing.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Go to the Demo: http://nygardk.github.io/react-share/
  2. Click on the Facebook icon

Expected: Window pops up enabling share to Facebook Actual: Nothing happens

This happens in my application as well. Surprised to find it true in the demo.

I am running this with Version 116.0.5845.59 (Official Build) beta (64-bit) on my HPx360 Chromebook

Hi, it probably is something specific to your os/browser, it should work fine and open:

https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com&quote=GitHub

Can you try it in various os/browsers and try to identify what is the combination that fails?

(it might be as well that your chromebook doesn't allow to open new windows?)

It "works" on another computer with Mozilla, but I get this:

Twitter, LinkedIn, and Email all work on my Chromebook.

Happy to say this is a Facebook problem...

@NickHodges - It works just fine. Make sure you are giving the correct url. Including the https and www.
