How To Accept FaceBook Wall Comments From Your WordPress Posts

I thought that it would be cool to offer my readers the option of being able to comment directly on my FaceBook wall directly from my posts. FaceBook offers an API that allows you to easily set this up. Here is how to do it if you’d like to allow your readers to comment on your wall after reading your posts.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Developers.

Next click on the green link that says start building for your site.

Enter your website name, URL, and choose your language.

Download the xd_reciever.htm file and then upload it to your public_html or root directory via FTP.

The xd_receiver.htm file should be transferred directly onto the root directory or public_html folder of your server. Once the connection is made, FaceBook will issue an API key.

Click on the Comments Box in the Widgets section and copy the code as shown above.

Paste the code in the desired location into your single.php file. I put my code directly above  <?php comments_template(); ?>

That’s it… after you do that, then your readers can view your blog posts and leave comments directly for you on your FaceBook wall.
