Facebook Comment Notifications
-
I setup Facebook comments on my site using the iframe setup. I thought FB would notify me whenever someone comments on my website, but that is not the case. Now people are commenting and I would have to look through hundreds of pages on my site to reply to their questions.
I searched the web on how to do this, but I am lost when looking at the steps. Can anyone help provide clear instructions on how to notify me of my website comments on my FB page or by email?

Any time, keep on rocking and thanks for the link.

Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated!
I have hundreds of dynamically created pages that I am hoping will benefit from more unique content. Here is an example page: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/surety_bond.php?bond_form_id=626&bond_type_id=320
I'll reply here when I know more about the impact.
I searched all over for how to properly hide the output of the FB script, but can't find anything that is guaranteed white hat.

Great, im happy you got it working. Sure, keep it white hat. i would have a look on the Facebook Forums, im sure there are many developers out there with the same issue.
Please keep me updated. Im curious to see how this impacts your traffic.

I implemented the subscribe script at: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/commercial-bonds/auto_dealer_bond.htm
Unfortunately, the FB php script displays the text and I am not sure the white hat way to hide it from the browsers since they already see the commments in the iframe.
I also found that FB has a variable for 'send_notification_uid', which you can loust your user id to be notified. I implemented both for now and will see which is better.

Any news? If this helped then please mark this answered for me

basically you will need to add this, making the notify value true, hope this works.
3 down vote acceptedAdd the notify="true" attribute to the fb:comments tag.
FB.Event.subscribe('comment.create', function(response)
{
alert(response);
}| | |

Awesome! I integrated the meta tag so the comments appear in the "Comment Moderation Tool". I COULD just check on that daily, but it looks like it can notify me further. Here is what the documentation says...
How do I know when someone comments on my site?
You can subscribe to the 'comment.create' and 'comment.remove' events through FB.Event.subscribe.
Any idea on how to "subscribe" to something?

Ok cool. From the research i did a while ago i found out that this feature was removed from the API.
I cam across this thread which says admins can moderate comments made on their sites, thus i assume you can view comments / get notified before they are publish.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
Look at the section that says Moderation Tools
Pleas let me know if this helped or not.

A regular html/css site using the FB iframe plugin. Here is an example page of our site using the plugin: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/commercial-bonds/auto_dealer_bond.htm

What type of website are you running? The Facebook Comment, is this running via a plugin or a custom api?

How do you guestimate facebook brand searches?
Buongiorno from Weherby Uk 🙂 With brands all clamouring to get a stake in Facebook I wonder how many people actually search for brands on facebook. For example www.evian.com promote their facebook page on their bottles but how could you work out how many searches are entered in the facebook search box for evian as illustrated here:http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/facebook-search-volumes.jpg So my question is please: "How do you work out search volumes for search entries via facebook"? Thanks in advance 🙂

Best practices to add Facebook comments to wordpress blog?
Our website (noahsdad.com) has a very large and active Facebook group (http://facebook.com/noahsdadcom). Often there are more comments on the Facebook posting of a link, than on the blog post itself. I try to get people go and leave comments on the blog, but they don't get it. So I'd like to try to find a way to get Facebook comments to transfer to our site. I"m not sure the best way to do this....either via a plug in, or via these instructions https://developers.facebook.com/attachment/Comments_Best_Practices_FINAL.pdf/ I'd just like to get it going..and not mess up the comment's I have now. (Also not everyone has Facebook, so I'd like them to still be able to comment the 'old' way (name/email). Hoping someone can help point me in the right direction with this. Thanks.

Is facebook and twitter always a good idea to promote a website and improve Google rankings?
I'm attempting to promote a fresh seafood market / restaurant here on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. I have not found a lot of examples of people using Twitter and Facebook to promote this type of business here. Is it hard to justify the time for return here? One benefit I thought for twitter is we could have tweets displayed on site giving us some dynamic content which would hopefully keep Google spider coming back more regularly is this correct? Is there any link building advantage to using these social media sites?
