    Hi,
    I would like to show the number of FB comments counts to the comments_popup_link
    I tried the codes below, I put it on the loop but it breaks my theme
    maybe I need to remove or add something? or perhaps put it elsewhere?

    <fb:comments-count href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>"></fb:comments-count> Comments

    also this one

    <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#commentForm"><fb:comments-count href=<?php the_permalink(); ?>></fb:comments-count> Kommentare</a>

    none works :/

    ok, I made it work with this code

    <span class="meta_comments" title="Comments">
      <fb:comments-count href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>"></fb:comments-count> Comments
 </span>

    however, I would like to have the word Comments clickable and link to the post… how can I do this? with the normal WP comments you can do that but with this hack I don’t know how…. does anyone know?

    Yo,

    Sorry, I can’t really offer much help here, but – if you don’t mind me asking – where di you put the code from the post above mine? Seems I’m trying to do the same thing, I want blog posts on my main page to display number of facebook comments – however, it seems to display the WordPress comments only. I’ve added 2 facebook comments to a test note at http://www.dynamitri.pl now and it doesn’t seem to recognise them in the count.

    Any suggestions you could offer?

    Many thanks,

    D.

    Did you replace any code in particular? Sorry, I’m still quite new to WordPress – maybe you could just PM me the code or paste it here, so that I know exactly where it needs to go.

    Hope that’s not too much of a problem! Thanks!

    No, you don’t have to replace any code, just copy and paste anywhere on those two files.
