Hi, welcome.

Do you want to change the facebook like button?

if so, facebook has a predefined color scheme for black colored websites, open your /Sources/ShareThis.php file and find: colorscheme=light   change it with:  colorscheme=dark

That should take care of the like button.

For some time now, facebook has been pretty much ignoring their own code, that is, they do not recognize all the options they offer themselves.

It's a issue on their site, there is nothing you or the mod can do about it, we follow their rules but they aren't follow their own rules sadly.

It's not only for the button type, try any other option like hiding the user's images, changing the background color or changing the language.

$this->url is actually a variable, it means it will take any value, in this case, $this->url takes the value of each message's url.

This means that $this->url will hold the message url for each message. So it dynamically works for every message.

The url shouldn't interfere at all, php is on the server side, this means that, when you are viewing the page, the php code was already executed and served, thus, the $this->url var was printed already with the corresponded url value, if you view the source code for the page you won't see the $this->url var, you will see only the message value: example: http://missallsunday.com/modifications_and_packages/share_this_topic_84.msg616.html#msg616

Perhaps facebook doesn't like dynamic urls at all

I honestly don't like they work methodology at all, first they made you to register an provide a valid phone number to get your developer code and be able to working on their apps and stuff...  then they release a new API every 3 months or so and expect every one to do the change with 0 documentation on how to do it.

When I was making this mod I did saw this issue, when to the facebook dev forums and got 0 response, well, I got tons of responses from other angry devs but non from their staff, the only messages from the staff were some predefined replies with "good work guys, keep it up" which only annoys me even more.

Cool, can you share your edits?  I've seen the same request at simplemachines.org multiple times
