Show Thread Enhancements - Add Facebook comments to threads

This modification will integrate Facebook comments directly into the posts, at the bottom of the page.

What is needed for this modification:

• A standard facebook account.
  
• A facebook application, anyone can set one up and it's simple http://www.facebook.com/developers/createapp.php Be sure to add your site URL to the "Connect URL" and take note of your API Key.

Once that is done it's time to add the code to the SHOWTHREAD template.

Find:

{vb:raw similarthreads}

Add this above:

	<!-- FB Comments -->
	<h4 class="threadinfohead"><span class="optiontitle">Facebook Comments</span></h4>
	<div id="thread_tags_list" class="thread_info_block">
		<div class="inner_block">
			<div id='tag_list_cell'>
<script src="http://static.ak.connect.facebook.com/connect.php/en_US" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">FB.init("YOUR API KEY");</script><fb:comments> </fb:comments>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>
	<!-- /FB Comments -->

Be sure to add your API key.

Nice to hear.
1) I am being told by my friend who works on the site, that on our website - www.theAudiophile.net/forum.php , its conflicting with some internal Vb coding.

Is there an installation guide file or something?


2) Is there a way to present the Facebook comments in the same display format as the other replies? Postbit info could be different though, which is understandable.

@Eric
Thanks for the wonderful mod, if this gets done right it can be so very helpful.

Could you assist with a better layout option for the replies made by facebook users, which should not look too out of place.

Kindly do let know, if something can be done.

Cheers

Problem: I put the code in, and it worked for a while, then now, the feature is gone. Could you please tell me what I could do to fix it? Here's my link: http://www.fliprap.com/showthread.ph...3196#post13196
