Dan Cole Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 @@sudhara429 Sudhara I've been using a module like this for awhile now...it was developed by Gary as one of his 28 or 29 days of coding events and one of the things I've noticed is that I can't boost a post that I generate as a comment and it doesn't show/display the posts reach on Facebook. In fact I'm starting to wondering if visitors to my page can even see those posts. Just wondering if you've noticed those issues too or if it might be something I have configured incorrectly on Facebook? Dan Quote Need help? See this thread and provide the information requested.

♥John W Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 @@Dan Cole How is the FB comment working for you? I saw it on someone's site that was asking for help and it got my interest. I didn't realize it but i have the one from Gary and I just downloaded this one to take a look. In Beyond Compare they are slightly different but I haven't tried either one. I added Gary's Responsible Social Icons last week, so I thought this FB comment might be worth doing. Quote I'm not really a dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Cole Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 @@John W Hi John....the short answer is it's not working as I think it should....folks can leave comments and that seems to work well but for some odd reason they are only visible to me when I visit my Facebook page. Anyone visiting doesn't seem to see them...they just aren't visible. It took me awhile to figure that out. At one point I was adding comments to individual products...noting when they were on sale etc thinking the post would show up on Facebook...and while they do, I seem to be the only one that is able to see them....you also can't boost those posts...it is very weird and of course talking or communicating with someone from Facebook to work through this is next to impossible. I would highly recommend it if I could only get it to work as I think it should. Regrettable it doesn't seem to. Dan Quote Need help? See this thread and provide the information requested.

With Comment Mirroring, people can participate in a single conversation, whether comments come from your web page or your Facebook Page. When you share a link from your website to your Facebook page, comments on your webpage will also appear as comments on your Facebook post and vice versa. The documentation can be found here...I have stepped through the setup on several occasions. Seems simple enough. Facebook APP Dan Quote Need help?

Dan Cole Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 @@burt @@John W What are your privacy settings (at FB) ? It seems it was the privacy settings after all. I had that setting set to "friends" and while that works for most FB comments it seems like they need to be set to "public" for the Comment Mirroring to work. That still strikes me as being odd but at least for now the comments made on my website are now visible on my Facebook page as well. This is pretty neat since I can promote an item on FB by simply commenting on the product page on my site. It is easy to do and will publish it on FB so now I can add content, new products etc and easily keep my FaceBook followers updated. Neat eh? Dan burt 1 Quote Need help?

I'd suggest it's more about people on FB seeing other peoples comments and so on. For Google, better to have testimonials and reviews of products (as you also get all the added benefit of Schema etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
