Facebook Like-Box min-width changed to 292px. Any way to change this behavior?

Question

I've just noticed a change in one of my websites html layout.

Everything looked messy and after searching i found out that the cause was that the Facebook Like Box (which min width seems to have changed to 292px) was insisde a 250px container.

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/

I've had the like-box there for years widh a width=220px and it's kind of awckard that Facebook changed this "legacy" behavior. The box had its place on my site and now i need to figure out where to put it.

With my current website layout it's impossible to move the facebook like box in a different place; so i had to remove if for now.

Any ideas why Facebook did this and if there's any workaround?

Thanks,

Dan

I don't know why Facebook has done it, but you can easily set your own width using CSS:

.fb-like-box span, .fb-like-box iframe {
    width: 220px !important;
}
