 * Hi, I’m looking to change the defuat positioning of the comments box on my theme
   by using the php shortcode (echo do_shortcode(‘[fbcomments]’);).
 * I’ve inserted this code where I want the comments to appear but now I have two
   instances of the comments box. Is the original supposed to be replaced by the
   new placement? If not do you know how to remove the original instance from appearing?
 * Thanks
