 * First off, thank you for a great plugin. Things seem to be working except for
   the following:
 * Getting the following 2 error messages on every detailed (i.e. “long format”)
   blog entry on facebook at the bottom of each detailed post:
 * 1.
    Warning: require(/home/frankog5/public_html/queerliberationfront.us/wp-content/
   plugins/wpbook/theme/dragonskin/comments.php) [function.require]: failed to open
   stream: No such file or directory in /home/frankog5/public_html/queerliberationfront.
   us/wp-content/plugins/fbconnect/fbconnect_comments.php on line 22
 * 2.
    Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/
   frankog5/public_html/queerliberationfront.us/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/
   dragonskin/comments.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in/
   home/frankog5/public_html/queerliberationfront.us/wp-content/plugins/fbconnect/
   fbconnect_comments.php on line 22
 * The code in that file referenced above reads:
 * 21. <div id=”fbFirstComments” class=”fb_commentstab”>
    22. <?php require( $fb_old_comments_path);?
   > 23. </div>
 * For example, go to this post and scroll to the bottom of the post:
    [http://apps.facebook.com/queerliberation//2011/01/13/city-of-hartford-connecticut-passes-trans-non-discrimination-ordinance/](http://apps.facebook.com/queerliberation//2011/01/13/city-of-hartford-connecticut-passes-trans-non-discrimination-ordinance/)
 * You will see the 2 error messages above.
 * What am I doing wrong? Please help!

 * The problem is a conflict between fbconnect plugin and wpbook.
 * fbconnect is trying to redraw the comments field inside wpbook’s theme but can’t.
   (
   Whatever plugin lives at wp-content/plugins/fbconnect/ is trying to change the
   theme but WPBook has already changed the theme).
 * I don’t know any simple solution here to make wpbook work with fbconnect, but
   I will look into options.
 * You might try copying /theme/dragonskin/comments.php into wp-content/plugins/
   wpbook/theme/ but I’ve no idea whether that will work, since it seems like fbconnect
   is doing something else there – maybe swapping in FB Connect comments?

 * Thank you, John, for your prompt response and background info on what’s happening.

 * Frank,
 * I don’t know how you feel about disabling fbconnect just inside of Facebook but
   if this is something you’d be okay with you can find the code snippit here: [http://wpbook.net/docs/faq/](http://wpbook.net/docs/faq/)
   Just wrap your fbconnect plugin in code found in the second question.

 * Bandon, John,
 * I decided to disable the facebook connect plugin altogether because I really 
   like the wpbook plugin and found the facebook like plugin to offer the same functionality
   as fbconnect without the conflict problems.
 * Thank you to both of you for taking the time to offer me advice and suggestions.
 * I really appreciated it.
 * peace,
    frank
