[Forum] facebook connect button not displaying on certain templates

[zippys]

So the F Connect button appears on the default template and a few others. Ive read that you have to register the variable. Not quite sure how to do this or if this is the problem. I noticed that the header code is the same and I see the facebook statement, so I have no idea why its not showing up. Any help?

Please see this tutorial on how to do register variables for use in other templates:

thanks for the reply, ive actually read this post, thats how I know that i probably had to register the variable. the huge missing part of this thread is where to do this to? is it a file? ive seen to add it as a plugin? Im very new to this in vb4. I tried adding
vB_Template:reRegister('header',array('facebook_header' => $facebook_header)); to my global.php that ive seen someone suggest, but I still do not see the facebook button
