[Plugin: Facebook] Comments showing on blog template page

I never got a response to this, so I had to put a work around in place myself.

Basically what’s happening is the Facebook plugin is auto-injecting itself to the_content – which is fine on single pages, but on a page that is a blog template you end up with all the comments showing up after each post in the loop – it’s a cluster.

Ideally it would be nice to either 1) fix this 2) provide a function that can be called in the template to manually place the comments, alas since those are not options at the moment here is what I ended up doing.

In my blog template file I placed:

/** Remove Facebook from auto-injecting comments after each post */
remove_action( 'init', 'fb_apply_filters',                40 );
remove_filter( 'the_content', 'fb_comments_automatic',    30 );
remove_filter( 'comments_array', 'fb_close_wp_comments'      );
remove_filter( 'the_posts', 'fb_set_wp_comment_status'       );
remove_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'fb_hide_wp_comments'   );
remove_filter( 'comments_number', 'fb_get_comments_count'    );

That fixed it.

Hi @jaredatch,

From all this code I′m using only this remove_action( 'init', 'fb_apply_filters' ); and applying like this

But my problem now is I need to show the like button and figure it out this hack also affects the view of the like button in single post.

Any idea how can I keep using this hacks and also show the like button?

Thanx.

Hi @jaredatch,

I found a way, just inserting this code <?php echo fb_like_button_automatic(''); ?> I can show the like button in the any position of the single.php.

But seams the plugin options don′t work when the button is added in this way. And I really want to take out the option to add a comment when you like the post ??
