Unfortunately, it's hard to say what is the reason of the issue without investigation. So it will be better if you submit new ticket in HelpDesk with the access to your store, our support team will help you.

Ideal Responsive is a cool idea, but has issues. I already found a few issues and reported them. For a while I do recommend precaution in working with this X-Cart Template. A great feature, but ...

Karina - I will send you on Monday or Tuesday a few ideas related to functionality of this module (PopUp Anywhere).

FYI, the Pop-Up Anywhere module is currently NOT working with Facebook and hasn't for about a month. Something about Facebook changing their codes....

While this mod was working with Facebook, it was doing a very good job of getting me many new fan "likes" so will be happy when they get that fixed.

Could you please check this now? I've checked it on my dev version and coupon is generated successfully when I click 'Like' button in Facebook plugin.

There was some issue with this plugin, clicking 'Like' button in 'Like Box' didn't fire 'FB.Event.subscribe' event. Customer were able to 'like' your page but no coupon was generated. I've been searching for a solution, but yesterday it started to work again, without any changes in the module's code.

The Facebook, Twitter and Google plus functionality only work if you have X-Cart V4.5+ - correct? The module required is Socialize which is not in 4.4.X Unless custom coded of course.

The social buttons are depend on Socialize module which is available as a built-in module in X-Cart 4.4.4 and later ( http://help.x-cart.com/index.php?title=X-Cart:Socialize ). For other X-Cart versions it is possible to install Socialize module or make these social buttons available for Pop-up Anywhere module only within our custom development service or you can do it by yourself. Short instructions are below.

If you have v4.4.3 or lower:
Administrator can modify the templates via 'Edit templates' page, remove condition for 'Socialize' module and add links and images for social buttons manually. The following files use 'Socialize' condition and social buttons:
<xcart_dir>/skin/common_files/modules/Popup_Anywhere/predefined/notification_bar.tpl
<xcart_dir>/skin/common_files/modules/Popup_Anywhere/predefined/minicart_bar.tpl

To make Facebook 'Like Box' plugin working without 'Socialize' module it should be enough to edit '<xcart_dir>/skin/common_files/modules/Popup_Anywhere/predefined/social_plugin.tpl' file and change '{$config.Socialize.soc_fb_page_url}' to your url like 'http://facebook.com/xcart'

Still doesn't work for me...not generating the coupon, customers complaining because they click on the "like" then don't get the coupon.

Kevin, I've just liked your page on your site and the new coupon 'bhSR**8S' with $2.00 discount was successfully generated (you can delete this coupon in admin area).

Facebook team have updated the status of this bug yesterday:
https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/508219649233845
"This should now be resolved. Thanks for your patience.
Status changed to Fixed"

When your customers inform you about not generating coupon last time? The status of the bug on Facebook was changed yesterday at 11.35 PM, may be your customers liked your page before this time?

I just checked this, it's now working again. Thank you!

If you've got a competitor who you are trying to pull ahead of on Facebook, this is the mod for you. Last month before the problem, i was generating 10 likes for every 1 of my competitors.
