comments not sync'ing between wp and fb

  • i have enabled comment handling, scheduled for every 10 minutes. i have selected both import/push to/from fb, and selected auto approve. i see the fb comment box on my post now, and posted a comment, however the comment is not showing up on the fb post, despite several hours having gone by.

    what am i doing wrong?

    for example’s sake, here’s a post i successfully pushed to my fb page, but the comments are not showing up (please delete the link after referring to it)

    Thats because the FB comment box is NOT part of WordPress. Wordbooker synchronises comments between FB and WordPress using the WordPress commenting system.

    Version 2.2 does pull FB comment box comments into the WordPress comments which theoretically means that they would sync. The FB comment box is there because some people expected it to be there – personally I don’t use it and it has a lot of problems if you do things like change your permalinks.

    I cannot edit your posts on here….

    sorry for my ignorance, but i think i misunderstood something. if wordbooker uses the wp commenting system, how come it inserts a separate fb comments box at the bottom of the wp post?

    It only does that if you say you want to use the FB comment box – its not a default selected item.

    Some users of Wordbooker wanted a FB comment box and didn’t want to install a separate plugin so I added it as an option.

    so if i want to sync comments i need to disable the fb comments box on my site and just use the wp comments? ok i’ll try… please correct me if i’ve misunderstood again

    That’s correct. Version 2.2 does more with the FB comment box but really that’s just there to allow people to move off it.
