There’s no such guideline for plugin submissions

Also please don’t create duplicate topics. You can always go back to your original topic and mark it “unresolved” again.

Duplicates make it harder to track problems and provide you with good support.

Facebook plugin is violating WordPress programming conventions – it overrides WP’s no comments allowed settings. When I have no comments allowed on my site it adds a “Leave a Reply” box at the bottom of a static front page even though I have followed all of the settings to not allow comments. The Facebook reply boxes appear as wanted on every other page, however when I disable all of my plugins, and then activate just the Facebook plugin it adds the “Leave a Reply” box at the bottom of the home page.
It is not a problem with the theme – I get the same results with every theme I use – the problem is with the plugin itself.
Instead of using this plugin, I installed the “Facebook All” plugin, and it does not break or override the WP no comment policy.
I think it is a shame that the Official Facebook plugin does not work properly, and others do.
I posted this earlier and someone marked it solved, when it in fact wasn’t solved, so I am reposting it here. This is a link to the original bug report:
