Need absolute URL for data-href?

    I just tried installing the plugin today and couldn’t get it to show me any comments. The IFRAME appeared blank (though it was full of code).

    After a lot of experimentation, I found that Facebook wouldn’t show comments unless I included an absolute URL in the data-href field.

    I edited class-frontend.php to change get_permalink() to get_bloginfo(‘url’).get_permalink() and now it works beautifully.

    Is there something else wrong that caused this absolute URL to be necessary, or is it just a new FB requirement? If it’s a new FB requirement, I’m assuming the plugin will be updated next time to include this?

    Thanks for the plugin!
