Hi,

Now, I don't see "facebook comments plug in" character and I only see "f" icon instead. Well, the link seems to be worked, but I just don't see the character.
Please see attached file. How can I change to be visible?

This is not something that I've ever heard of, as we have no control over that text from the plugin. I would suggest seeing if there is a difference in how the plugin is rendered based on which users are logged in (a guest vs normal Facebook user vs FB user that can moderate the comments). Also, try using browser developer tools to see if the text is actually there but CSS is hiding it.

Hi,

Thank you for your support! I checked with firebug tool, but I can see the comment. Also, I've found something on facebook comments box as folows.
Actually, I am using Easyblog post. The articles of joomla should be no issue..

1. This is my understanding that "the comments" is supposed to be reflected to one post. For instance, there are 2 posts like A and B post.
If I do the comment to post A, then my comment reflect to post A only. Currently, all posts seem to be reflected.
I mean, both posts (A and B) are reflected even if I did the comments to post A only.
Or is there any parameters for facebook comments box (easy tag)?

2. Also, I don't see "Like" "Reply" characters, but I can click on these..

3. I don't see facebook comments plug character, but I can click on this

Please try to access to blog.photo-life.net/en

1. This is my understanding that "the comments" is supposed to be reflected to one post. For instance, there are 2 posts like A and B post.

The Facebook Comments box associates each comment with a URL. If you don't specify a URL in the tag, the current URL will be used. So, if you've just added {SCFacebookComments} to each article, in the blog view, all the articles will use the current URL for the blog layout and all of the comments for all articles will be mixed together.

To fix, you should use the href parameter in the tag. That will make sure that any comments made, whether in the blog view or in the article itself will go to the right place:
{SCFacebookComments href=http://yoursite.com/url-to-comment-on}

2. Also, I don't see "Like" "Reply" characters, but I can click on these..

3. I don't see facebook comments plug character, but I can click on this

You've set the color scheme of the comment box to 'dark'. That means the comment box is intended for a darker site (like with a black background). In that case, the text is white. Please change the colorscheme to 'light' or leave the parameter off altogether as light is the default.

I hope that helps,
Alex

Hi,

Thank you for your kind support! Yes, I fixed the character's issue completely! But I still can see the comments are in placed for all posts.

I tried to do with following. But I still have no luck. All posts seem to be reflected for my comments. Can you do the comment to my host?
blog.photo-life.net/en

1. {JFBCComments href=http://blog.photo-life.net/url-to-comment-on width=550 num_posts=10 colorscheme=light mobile=false order_by=time}
2. {SCFacebookComments href=http://blog.photo-life.net/url-to-comment-on width=550 num_posts=10 colorscheme=light mobile=false order_by=time}

Regards,

Looking at the page source, it looks like you've literally put in "blog.photo-life.net/url-to-comment-on" as the href. When Alex posted that, he explained that you need to make the URL unique to each article, not just copy/paste his link.

For instance, the URL for
* "Post test5" should be blog.photo-life.net/en/post-test5.html
* "Post test4" should be blog.photo-life.net/en/post-test4.html
etc

By the way, the JFBCComments and SCFacebookComments easy-tags are the same. The JFBCComments tag is our older name that is deprecated and will eventually be removed. Use SCFacebookComments.

Hi,

Thank you for your comment. Yes, you are right. But I need to put "xxxxx.html" at the end of URL for each article in that case.  I would like to have the same function of "Article view setting (please see attached file). Also, I tried to use "module" option and set positions, but had no luck..
Is this possible to do the post without putting this every time? Since "easy tag" is only the solution that work on Easyblog article, then it should be modified some scripts?!

The Easy-tag can do everything that we can do for articles with that screenshot, or the SCSocialWidget with the Comments widget (and leaving the href parameter blank).

Is this possible to do the post without putting this every time?

As Alex has already stated in his previous response, yes, you don't need to figure out the href parameter and add it each time. When you leave it out, JFBConnect can figure that value out automatically. So do the following for all of your EasyBlog posts:
{SCFacebookComments width=550 num_posts=10 colorscheme=light mobile=false order_by=time}

Hi,

I tried to do as you said... But I still can see the same comments when I created the new article on Easyblog. Please see attached file.
Also, you can see this on my site.

bravo444,
There's a few issues here:
* As described above, if you leave the href parameter off the comments tag, then the URL of the current page will be used. Since you're showing your comments in a blog view, you do not want to do this or else all comments will be shared on that page.
* You should be specifying the unique URL for each article if you're using the tag.

If you don't want to do this in each article, there are 2 options:
* Use EasyBlog's own Facebook Comment option. As noted, that should work just fine with JFBConnect and many users do so.
* Modify the EasyBlog template view and add the Comments easy-tag to their template. In there, you can programmatically set the URL so it's right on each page.

I'd really recommend using the Comments in EasyBlog though as it will get around many of these issues. If there's a reason you need to use our comments box, let us know and we'll gladly help further however we can.

I hope that helps,
Alex
