Flagcounter on Facebook
Hi.....
I need some help....my flag counter on my facebook page isn't working at all...not sure how to fix it....
it tells me I haven't had a new visitor since September...I know this is not correct ....I have new friends posting every day almost.
I tried to click on the counter to access the flagcounter.com page with the updated list of my visitors and then click on the option "regenerate html". When I did this and then I chose the option to post the new list to my page, an old (not updated) version appeared. I repeated the operation adding the number of pages visited and so it worked. Unfortunately, now I have the same problem (no data updating) even if I add this last option.
Please help

Re: Flagcounter on Facebook
Facebook records only US visits. It has something to do with their policy or something...
251/251 countries and 3,860/3,860 flags collected.

Re: Flagcounter on Facebook
OK I failed to comprehend you entirely 
Are you saying that by regenerating the code and changing a parameter or two it started working again? 
I'm not familiar with flag counter & facebook, but I recommend you read the following (latest) topics about the problem:
Looks like visitors are recorded as if coming from the US, just like holland25h said.
But since it's been 2 months since those two last discussions on Facebook & Flagcounter maybe there's been some improvement/update/news on the matter.. for that I'll leave my forum colleagues to answer

They do not. The world flags probably come from other sites their flagcounter is posted on. Facebook records only US flag.
251/251 countries and 3,860/3,860 flags collected.

Re: Flagcounter on Facebook
Facebook loads external images, including Flag Counter, through a US based proxy, and then seems to serve a cached copy. For this reason, Flag Counter will not work there.
There used to be a way to add Flag Counter to a "box" on a Facebook "page" (not a profile), but that appears to have been discontinued.
