Hello,
ive just bought JFBConnect and im pleased by what it offers and slowly getting into it. I have just 2 problems now which might be caused by my low knowledge of using these modules, still im rather asking.

1) JFBCLike - as far as i could notice, if im not using SEF, LIKES are not sepparated for different pages, but for whole site in global - meaning that if i click LIKE on some sub-page, it still displays on every page on website. Ok, so i turn on SEF for friendly URLs and its ok. But, im using Virtuemart component on my site and common Joomla SEF doesnt work for Virtuemart - so i installed JoomSEF + VM plugin so i got friendly URLs for whole Virtuemart eshop. But then, when im trying LIKES on some product page it gives me "error" sign - saying that the page isnt available - but it actually is working in web browser and it makes the LIKES sing on Facebook - however the error sign on my site is problem - how to solve that?

2) JFBCComments - here i got simple problem to describe. I turn on module for comments on every page - then i make a comment on website on some sub-page and the comment shows in every other page on website. How can i make it make comments just for particular page? I believe it must be possible, just that i dont know how:p

Thank you in advance for reply and help with these problems!

I have the same question about the comment module being page specific. As far as I can tell the comment thread is site-wide.

We'll look into both of these. The knowledge that you're using SEF helps to narrow down the issues, but in general, you're correct in your thinking:
JFBCLike - Page based, not site based
JFBComments - Page based, not site based.

It's possible these are bugs, so you may not be doing anything wrong. We've entered it into our tracker and are shooting for another big release of the extensions later this week (or weekend).

Thanks for your effort. I hope ull figure out where is problem.

JFBClike - Meanwhile i found there might be some major issue about Likes in Facebook forum.developers.facebook.net/viewtopic.php?id=60241&p=2 .. dunno if it helps

JFBCcomment - seems i figured it out. Module contains this code in default.php for facebook comment - <fb:comments xid="<?php echo $uniqueId;?>"......... and the $uniqueId is defined in module administration, which (if i get it right) means that there is just one ID for this module for whole site - therefore all comments are displaying on all sites in this module. So i would have to make theoretically for each page its own module with setting the unique id for it. So i edited the code and added function for generating the $uniqueId variable from currentUrl converted into hex code (could be done by whatever else way, nvm).
Im not saying i used a good way for coding it, but it seems working properly now - and my point in writing it was to save u time maybe in finding the problem and u can solve it in expert coder way:p

Anyway, still need to solve the LIKEs error issue :(

So awesome. Thanks for your feedback on the comments module. We'll definitely update it for a unique ID. If we missed that (which it seems we did), we'll figure out a good way to make a unique identifier for each page. We'll be diving into this and a few other module changes tomorrow and this weekend and are planning to have the next release (RC3 or stable, not sure yet), out in a few days.

Thanks again!

The new 3.0.0 release contains the changes for the two issues listed above:

JFBCLike - there is a new parameter for the "URL to like". If this value is blank, the current page will be used instead.
JFBCComments - the existing "Unique ID" parameter (renamed to Fixed Comment ID) acts a little bit differently in this release. If there is a value here, all pages using that module will show the same set of comments. If the value is blank, the module now generates an ID unique to the page (meaning the comments will be separate for each page).
