[Plugin: Simple Facebook Connect] can't get anything to show up besides like btn..

I’m actually having trouble getting a lot of the widgets to show up.

The “Text only connect to facebook problem” is usually caused by not having wp_footer() code in your theme’s footer.php file.

Edit the footer.php of your theme, and add this right before the ending </body> line:

<?php wp_footer(); ?>

Thanks for the response. I realized that everything with SFC works fine in other themes just not the one I’m using. It totally breaks everything except the Login which is the default WP admin “theme”. So basically it’s the theme’s fault. Nothing from SFC works with the theme so there’s something killing it. I’m not sure if it’s killing something in the Base plugin or with xfbml or what.

sonicparke: Did you fix the footer of the theme, like I just suggested?

I did and most of it looks like it’s working now. I’m having issues with the upcoming events plugin though. Using the user ID it displays only dates and not the same ones that I see on the actual FB page.

Thanks for the help!

Hi everyone,

I’m new to wordpress and simple facebook connect. I have managed to set most of what I need at the moment with SFC and so far it seems awesome. I however seem to be having the problem of not receiving comments made on facebook on my blog.

I have trawled the internet and read as much as I can into the problem so that I dont bother anyone with unnecessary question. I am however stumped.

My theme is based off of the Daydream theme and I’m guessing its comments area was written before the twentyten theme. I have checked that the footer of the theme is correct. I first placed [div id=”comment-user-details”] [?php do_action(‘alt_comment_login’); ?] in front the Daydream code and added [/div] where it should be but no dice.

I have now got rid of part of the Daydream code and used the code @sonicparke wrote above. I still dont get a comment on the blog if a comment is writen on fb.

I have disabled and enabled SFC-comment before and after editing the comment.php

Am I missing something? Should I be looking somewhere else or should this be working? How long should it take for a comment posted on FB to appear on the blog?

Thanks Otto for writing this plugin and thanks to everyone in advanced for any guidance and help.

Cheers

The comment plugin doesn’t pull comments in from FB to your site. It allows users to comment on your site by using the Facebook connect button instead of typing in their name, email, etc.

Ahhhhhh…….Well dont I feel smart! I miss understood that! Thanks for the reply Otto! Carry on….nothing to see here ??

I really want a plugin that does this also! I’ve been searching the web for one, but it doesn’t appear to exist.

It shouldn’t be too hard for Facebook comments on a blog post to appear in blog comments section also, right? All you would need is some sort of RSS feed for comments on individual Facebook posts. I’m surprised no one has made one, or if they have, I’m surprised Facebook is blocking such an application.
