Facebook Widget Setup Error (in Pligg).

Well, I thought I had the Freaky Virginia presentation (Theme) tweaked out pretty well. The other night I was adding some RSS feeds to the site and had all four pages (main, Paranormal, UFO, and Misc) open at the same time and was looking at them when I noticed the Facebook Like Box was pointing to the wrong Facebook Page on the 'Misc' page.

Freaky Virginia's main pages run under Pligg CMS. Within Pligg is a Module to place a Facebook 'Like Box' in the Sidebar. I had used that early on then hard coded the like box into the sidebar itself. Somehow I had the module still enabled in that last page. Though the hard coding was there also, the module was overriding the settings and presenting the wrong Facebook page data.

Quick fix? Kill the module. While I was there I removed the calendar code from each page since I never built a calendar for Freaky Virginia and really didn't have time to maintain it myself.
