Please add a "none" option to the facebook likebox background (color scheme)

    This is a change request, not a bug.

    The facebook likebox widget in jetpack is amazing. I use it on all of my clients’ websites. The issue is, I would prefer the background to be transparent, so it can sit on top of any colour the website uses.

    Currently, you have color scheme options of “Light” and “Dark”. These are still useful, depending on the background, but I would also like to choose “no background” instead of being stuck with black or white.

    Right now, I manually remove the background from the iframe, as outlined in this thread:

    The trouble is, whenever jetpack is updated, I will lose this. This becomes painful when i maintain 30+ websites.

    Can you please add the option to remove the background colour?

    Thanks again for a great plugin!

    Cheers
    Tim

    Jetpack includes a filter allowing you to specify a custom background color for the Like Box. Try adding the following code to your theme’s functions.php file, or to a functionality plugin:

    function jeherve_custom_likebox_bg() {
        return 'none';
}
add_filter( 'jetpack_fb_likebox_bg', 'jeherve_custom_likebox_bg' );

    Thanks, Jeremy! That worked perfect!
