I had the same problem and this is how I fixed it.

First of all, the Page ID is a string of numbers. It is NOT a URL or a username. It is only numbers. The easiest way to get those numbers is to click on your fan page’s profile pic and grab the numbers from the address bar.

Secondly, I had to fill in both my Canvas URL and my Site URL (a.k.a. Callback URL) on my Facebook App settings. Simply put in your blog’s URL into these fields.

Then I saved changes in my app settings, entered the ID, Key, and Secret into my WP-FB-Comments settings, and saved there. Then I clicked the Connect Admin FBacc button at the bottom and everything filled in.

Remember, your blog comments will jump to Facebook automatically but your FB comments take an hour or so before jumping to the blog page.

One other thing. Is there a way to limit the number of posts/excerpts that show up? Currently, my app is loading a lot of posts which slows it down a bit, I think.

Oops. I didn’t see that you had just posted these answers Bandon. Sorry. Oddly, Thumbnails for Excerpts didn’t work for me. I wonder if I did something wrong.

I have answers to most of these questions now.

1. Excerpts instead of full posts – edit the index.php inside wpbook/theme/.

At line 123 (in the current version) replace:
get_the_content();
with:
get_the_excerpt();

You may also need to eliminate or comment out line 124, which applies a filter to the content, as that is already applied by get_the_excerpt();.

3. There is a style.css inside plugins/wpbook/theme/default which controls the full app view. There’s also, at lines 7-47 of wpbook/theme/index.php, a set of inline defined styles, which control the tab view.

4. Impossible. Comment section is disallowed.

That leaves me with the final issue of including the thumbnails. Every one of my posts have a “featured image.” Why is that not showing up?
