Tying in facebook comments plugin with Facebook Developer App


First off, thanks for taking the time to read this.

I have successfully added the facebook comments plugin to multiple pages on my website. I am looking for the central location to view all comments made on my website, and to moderate them.

From my google research I have found that I need to create a "Facebook App" that is assigned to the comments plugin, ad myself as an administrator, and thats it.

I was able to create my facebook developers account, and I stumbled through trying to make the associated comments app, but I have been met with utter failure :(

How do I create a Facebook app that is tied into the facebook comments plugin on my site? Can anyone point me to a good resource?

Thanks Alex


Solution

  • Two possible ways to moderate comments from the Comments plugin:

    1

    Add this <meta property="fb:admins" content="{YOUR_FACEBOOK_USER_ID}"/> with YOUR_FACEBOOK_USER_ID correctly set to your <head>. You should since be able to moderate comments.

    Note:

    to add multiple moderators, separate the uids by comma without spaces.

    Now, if you wish to have a larger control over your app:

    • Add this <meta property="fb:app_id" content="{YOUR_APPLICATION_ID}"/> with YOUR_APPLICATION_ID correctly set to your <head>,
    • In the app's settings, you will be able to add as many administrators as you want,
    • Moderate comments from here through one administrator's account.
