tep 1 − Go to the Facebook Developer site https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button and click the Get Code button .
Step 2 − When you click the Get Code button , a window will appear as shown in the following screen.
Step 3 - Open the file i.e. /app/design/frontend/base/default/template/productalert/product/view.phtml in Magento and paste the code below on line 50.
<div class = "fb-like" data-href = "https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/" data-layout = "standard" data-action = "like" data-show-faces = " true" data-share = "true" > </div>
Step 4 − Go to the System menu and click Manage Cache to refresh the cache.
Step 5: In the Manage Cache Storage section , select the items from the Cache Type column for which you want to refresh the cache. Select the Refresh option from the Actions box in the right corner and click the Submit button to refresh the cache.
