How To Add Facebook Comments Underneath A Video?

7 replies
I want to put up a free video I'm using as my lead magnet, and then have a box underneath for facebook comments.

I've tried all sorts of things, but can't get it to show up properly.

I have registered an API code, but no idea what to do next?

    Is it a wordpress site where you want to have the facebook application? If yes, first on facebook you have to get a developer key that you insert on wordpress in the settings of the plugin. When you have done this, it will work.

    Was wanting to put it on a static page. I have registered it as an application, but details of what to do next are lacking.

    Adding a comment box is as easy as going here: Comments - Facebook Developers, entering the particulars in the form, then getting the html code.

    If you want to be able to administer the comments, then it gets a little more complicated.

    To administer your comments box, you need to be listed as a developer on the application used to initialize the JAVASCRIPT SDK. An 'Administer Comments' link will appear below the 'Post' button for developers of the application.

    @ Mobetman - Hi...How about "Facebook Comments for Wordpress" - can be found at the WordPress Plugin repository or install direct from within WP.......

    And watch your site load speeds slow down to that of an old steam engine puffing up a long hill....

    Anything like that will serously slow your site down - even installing AutoMattic's own "Intense Debate" plugin will grind your site into the ground...

    @Andrew...If you are looking for a salespage with a video at the top and FacBook comments underneath, then you couldn't do better than having a look at Josh Bartlett's Easy Video Player 2 - but make sure you need it first! Or struggle with Flowplayer, or Vimeo.

    There are also themes like OptimizePress, JVPress to name 2

    Or maybe just use Cincopa...;-)

    Hi Andrew,

    Go with Steve's idea as that is the easiest and its FREE. I believe this puts the comments on your page and also on their profiles.

    I believe also if you set up a fanpage you can have the comments displayed there too on the 'wall'.

    I dont understand why everyone is suggesting Wordpress plugins when you want it for a static page!

    Cheers

    Chris
