I am having the same problem. I do not believe it’s GoDaddy issue though, since this happens often but not all the time.

After a few refresh, I can load the facebook comment successfully without triggering the connection timed out error.

Fatal error: Uncaught CurlException: 7: couldn’t connect to host thrown in /wp-content/plugins/seo-facebook-comments/facebook/base_facebook.php on line 825

I have tried to increase the CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT but still it didn’t work ..

public static $CURL_OPTS = array(

CURLOPT_USERAGENT => ‘facebook-php-3.1’,
);

Anybody has solved this issue?
