    Hi –

    I can’t seem to connect with Facebook when setting up this plugin.

    I’ve filled in the 4 boxes w/ ids, secret app, and api, but the only box that auto fills is the canvas URL – the rest are blank.

    When I click “Connect Admin FB Acct”,

    I get this error code:
    {
    “error”: {
    “type”: “OAuthException”,
    “message”: “Invalid redirect_uri: Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.”
    }
    }

    Can anyone help?

    I will be updating a new readme with details to resolve this issue..
    its basically about setting your website url in the facebook app settings.

    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.
