Facebook widget breaks css in sidebar - dikkewalter - 2015-03-16

I am using the awesome Grill theme and I added the facebook widget code in the sidebar thru a component and when you are not logged into FB the css breaks.

FB component:
Code:
<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/nl_NL/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.0";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

<div class="fb-like-box" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/youalex.social" data-colorscheme="light" data-show-faces="true" data-header="false" data-stream="false" data-show-border="false"></div>

sidebar:
Code:
<div class="advertisement">
    <h4>Volg ons op Facebook</h4>
          <?php get_component('facebook'); ?>
</div>

I've tried setting the width in the FB component like data-width="100%" & data-width="300" with no difference.

Any suggestions?

Does it use an iframe ?

If not you can maybe set the wrap settings in css
for whitespace and word break

or search google i am sure someone has a solution already

ok, I found some sort of solution but its more of a hack anyway:

sidebar:
Code:
<div id="likebox-wrapper"><?php get_component('facebook'); ?></div>

css file:
Code:
#likebox-wrapper * {
   width: 103% !important;
}

Why the 103% you ask? because somehow 100% broke the FB internal padding or spacing and it looked ugly:

103% when not logged into FB:

It'll have to do for now.
