You will have to modify the plugin file for that. Open fb-likes-list.php file and find this code:

echo '</a>';

After this add

echo '<div class="fb-like" data-href="'.$link.'" data-send="false" data-layout="button_count" data-width="450" data-show-faces="false"></div>'

Also make sure this javascript code is somewhere in your theme's header.php or footer.php

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

Hi, I haven't used this plugin, but you could try the html5 Like button structure:

<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://example.com" data-send="false" data-layout="button_count" data-width="450" data-show-faces="false"></div>

if you use:

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=xxxxxxxxxx";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>



So instead of the plugin code

echo '<li>';
echo '<a href="'.$link.'">';
echo ''.$title.'';
if ( $show_total )
echo ' ('.$total.')';
echo '</a>';
echo '</li>';


you could try

echo '<li>';
echo '<a href="'.$link.'">';
echo ''.$title.'';
if ( $show_total )
echo ' ('.$total.')';
echo '</a>';
echo '<div class="fb-like" data-href="'.$link.'" data-send="false" data-layout="button_count" data-width="450" data-show-faces="false"></div>';
echo '</li>';

@Navjot Singh, you beat me to it, I just saw your answer after I posted mine ;-)

<strong>ps:</strong> It looks like you have written

data-href="'.$title.'"


instead of

data-href="'.$link.'"


cheers
