 * Honestly i have tried all possibilities to make the facebook comments count to
   be functional with V1, but with no hope !!
 * I would appreciate if anyone has managed to implement the count with V1 to share
   his solution here since this becomes a common problem.

 * Guys, i have sorted out the problem, below is the solution:
 * Step 1:
    First of all in the admin panel, make sure to select V2 only.
 * Step 2:
    Verify your application secret and make sure it is correct.
 * Step 3:
    Next, in the Basic settings, make sure the first 3 check-boxes are marked
   as following: ** Include Facebook comments on blog (Uncheck this if you want 
   to hide the Facebook comments without having to deactivate the plugin)  Hide 
   WordPress comments on posts/pages where Facebook commenting is enabled
 * **Combine WordPress and Facebook comment counts (only counts “v1 only” and “new”,
   use below option if using “v2 only”)**
 * Step 4:
    in the template file (i.e. single.php) remove the following function:
   comments_number(‘No comments’, ‘One comment’, ‘% comments’);
 * and replace it with the following facebook API call to get the comments count:
 *     ```
       <fb:comments-count href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>"></fb:comments-count>
       ```
   
 * this should get the job done.
    Cheers 😉

   Facebook commenting system, i am using “Facebook Comments for WordPress” plugin
   and i spent two days to resolve the issue without any progress…
