I can see those also, but those are only for functionality of the forum.
I have not found anything wrt FB, even tried different forum themes…

I am personally very anti-ads and tracking myself, so i have blocked some domains via DNS also :wink:
But even with that it should still show in uMatrix if they would try to contact offsite domains of FB…

If anyone cares about the site’s structure and value, I suggest filing question on:

What you have found is a a json settings file in which it is possible to set an app id - and that setting is empty.

the " are url encoded as \"

"facebook_app_id":""

And a setting where it is possible to set a share to social link

"share_links":"twitter|facebook|email"

Well in that case, i’m sure i speak for all when i say:
