So I'm moving support to the WordPress.org support forums. I monitor these regularly anyway, and it's a better way to do this sort of thing. If you need help, write a new post there.

If somebody comments using their FB credentials, then it'll use their FB avatar. There is nothing special to do. If somebody comments using their FB credentials, then it’ll use their FB avatar.

Great software, thanks for your hard work. I am also having trouble with the Comments plugin, specifically with avatars. I am running WP 3.2.1 and a recent WooThemes theme (Premiere). First the comments did not work at all, then I edited my comments.php file according to the directions up top. Now it works, I see my FB avatar when I'm commenting and "Hi you are connected with your fb account" but when I actually publish the comment, my FB avatar doesn't show up, only the default "Mystery Man" avatar. Can you please advise? Thanks very much. _____ My comments file <code> <input type="text" name="author" class="txt" id="author" value="" size="22" tabindex="1" /> <input type="text" name="email" class="txt" id="email" value="" size="22" tabindex="2" /> <input type="text" name="url" class="txt" id="url" value="" size="22" tabindex="3" /> </code> Hi Otto.

I have the base connection done right because the FanBox widget is working correctly. The Status widget doesn't pull any data from FB. I set up a FB App for this but how does the App pull data (like status) from the actual FB fanpage? Maybe that's the problem... Thx! I am trying to configure the Status Widget to no avail.

There are TWO different places you can look and see the API key. One of them has the wrong number, the other of which does not. The one you're probably looking at is here: https://developers.facebook.com/apps . This is the one that shows the App ID and the API key to be the same. This is the WRONG page. If you're using the beta version of SFC (0.999), out in a week or so, then you wouldn't need the API key anymore, and this would be fine. The one you need to be looking at is actually here: https://www.facebook.com/developers/apps.php . Notice how that is a *completely different URL* than the one you're looking at? Notice how it takes you to a completely different page? Notice how the new page that it takes you to has a completely separate API key? That's the one you need for the 0.25 version of SFC. Now, what part of this is unclear? How can I possibly simplify this any further? There's two different webpages, with two different sets of information. The one I've linked to here three times now has the separate and different API key. Is there any further method by which I can possibly explain this? Smoke signals, perhaps? Sign language? I mean, I really don't know what more you're wanting here or how I can make you understand what you need to do...

They do NOT show, ANYPLACE I can see, a separate number. If all you are willing to do is repeatedly tell people to 'LOOK' and they 'WILL' find it, without bothering to be any more helpful, then I'll find a different plugin to use. I'm sure that won't hurt your feelings any, and it sure won't matter to me at all, so it's a wash. Really though, you need some lessons in Customer Service skills sir. Put up a FAQ or something, point out one time what people actually need to do, and then point to your FAQ, at least that would be helpful... Thanks for your time.
