facebookfacebook-like
For some reason when I like something on some webpage and click "post to Facebook", this is posted to my profile with a lock icon, meaning that only I can see it. I then need to manually go to Facebook, find this like on my profile page and share it.
Where can I set the default visibility of Facebook likes so that my likes are shared immediately, without the need to go to facebook.com?
I am not sure why they removed it but,
It is under the following format
http://www.facebook.com/posted.php?id=[YOUR_FACEBOOK_ID]
and your friends' recent links are http://www.facebook.com/posted.php
The above does not work anymore - Tuesday 15th November 2011
Here is a chart done by this page that shows recent applications that show links
The Facebook graph http://graph.facebook.com/http://rajitachaudhuri.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-year-new-start.html says you have 106 shares so that's your real count for the Like Button plugin.

The privacy of pages you Like is set on your timeline or profile. If you have timeline, go to your timeline and click on Likes, and then Edit in the upper right corner (Edit does not show up until you hover over it):
Then you can set the privacy of each category of Likes using the button to its right. Most of them are in the category "Other Pages You Like":
If you still have the old profile, go to your profile by clicking your name at the top, then click Edit Profile, then the appropriate category that you want to change in the left sidebar. "Other Pages you Like" can be found on the "Activities and Interests" tab. Change the privacy setting using the button to its right:
