Here is the Facebook plugin Discussion Forum - not showing up in Firefox: http://www.backwaterstudio.com/discussion-forum-and-feedback.html

Updated Flash and Java: No change Cleared Cache: No Change

They worked fine for two years and just quit a few days ago.

Chosen solution

Could you test your site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.

You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)

Any difference?

I get the icons -- mail, facebook, twitter, pinterest, google+ -- but some of the URLs look wrong:

That would be this image:


Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

That was exactly the problem.....an issue with the add ons I followed your instructions to the nth degree and, bingo, it was "fixed".

Interesting that I had not uploaded or changed anything prior - I am so careful about that. Something had gone corrupt though.

Your the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
