With more that 6.5 billion users in Facebook, using Facebook Comments Plugin will help you to gain more traffic to your site in less time. In few steps, we’ll be able to achieve that.

I tried this plugin in Pligg CMS 1.1.4 and within the default template Wistie and it worked like a charm. Its probably the same for the previous versions of Pligg and other themes also.

Ok, lets get started.

Facebook comments Plugin for Pligg

Step 1: Modify template

Locate your default template (Wistie, in this case) and open story_center.tpl .Usually, its http://YOUR_PLIGG_SITE/templates/wistie/story_center.tpl

Look for {include file=$the_template.”/comment_form.tpl”} and replace it with the following code:

Change the values of num_posts and width as required by your theme. And its done! One easy step huh?

If you do not want to show comments your site already received from the internal commenting system of Pligg, you could remove the following lines of code in the same file(story.php). Its right above the facebook comments plugin you just pasted.

{checkActionsTpl location="tpl_pligg_story_comments_individual_start"}
{$the_comments}
{checkActionsTpl location="tpl_pligg_story_comments_individual_end"}

I hope you enjoy this tutorial. Have a nice day!

Hi Jive!
Thank you for your comment. Facebook Comment Plugin seems to throw error while working with smarty variables. This time i have used PHP to fetch the story and put it in the ‘href’ attribute of tag. I have modified the tutorial and reduced the steps to one. Please read through the tutorial again. I hope it will solve your problem.
