Hi, thanks for this plugin.

I would use it but, even if I installed it correctly and filled the required fields in the options page, it is not displayed in the comments.php.
Obviously, I added the line of code required.

Why does it happen? What can I do?

[edit] Seems to be solved adding my blog to friendfeed. This is not well explained in the readme.

Hi at all,

one question: FriendFeed Comments work on page (page.php)?

Oh, I also installed it on http://www.mashupmom.com and am having the same issue -- displays on first few posts but not older ones. Both blogs port into my FF.

Hi - I just installed this at http://www.lisjobs.com/blog -- it seems to be working great for the first few posts, but then doesn't appear once you go back. For instance on Yes We Have no Bananas (11 March) it shows FriendFeed comments great. On the older Shuffling back from Buffalo (11 Feb), it doesn't even show the FriendFeed comments box (and this post has a number of comments in FF). Any suggestions? Thanks for the great plugin!

There is a Flickr Comments plugin, Geoff. But I've not got it to work. It wants you activity RSS feed and the plugin keeps telling me the URL I enter is not an RSS feed (when it is). :-(

Ignore, I've got it working up to a point, The only issue I have now is that I cannot post from the blog article. I enter my FF username and key, type in a post, press the add button but after the page refreshes nothing appears to have changed, Test post here: http://www.e-lusion.co.uk/2009/03/04/test-1/ and on FF here: http://friendfeed.com/e/07f231d6-6732-ce5a-f2ef...

Yes, that looks ideal. How did they do that?

I'll try this plugin again when version 1.4 comes out. For now I've given up on getting it working. :-(

EDTI: LOL that reply was 10 *months* ago, ignore. :-)

OK, I've started a blog from scratch. I've installed WordPress 2.7.1 and activated plugins: Akismet, FeedBurner FeedSmith, FriendFeed Comments, MediaRSS and WP SUP. I've entered my FF nickname and have the following settings ticked: Use default stylesheet, enable comments & likes form, show comments by default, FF servicename = blog, include Prototype Javascript Library. I've added <?php wp_ffcomments(); ?> into the "loop" on single_post.php.

My blog post here: http://www.e-lusion.co.uk/2009/02/22/test-from-...
My FF post is here: http://friendfeed.com/e/7f9fd8c5-1ad7-6610-d98d...

I've tried changing the servicename to the service ID from FF, I've tried deleting the other comment command from single_post.php, plus many other things. Nothing is working. Why might this plugin not be working?

I've re-tried this from scratch. So I have the right options screen. But now I have to add <?php wp_ffcomments(); ?> but wherever I put it nothing appears on my post e.g. http://www.squashyfrog.com/2009/02/20/dark-and-.... I've turned off the Disqus plugin but that hasn't helped. I do, however get the FF Comments post box on my published entries but the articles in the dropdowns seem to be diggs only. Does you plugin work with Disqus and where does the dropdown menu items come from?

This plug-in works great.

It could be nice to have a function to display only the numbers of comments and likes in the first page. I mean: read the comments in the single page where comments are displayed, but announce them in other blog parts

Hi! I've installed the plugin on my blog (WP 2.7 with threaded comments) and it works fine, but it leaves so many space between the hide/show row and the FF comments. It's possible to understand why?

Glenn,

I have been using your plugin for awhile now, but for some reason 1.6.4 doesn't seem to be working for me. I did some debugging in friendfeed-comments.php. It seems that the get_discussion_for_post function is not finding the discussions for my post, even though I am sure that it is in the database. If I am correct, the way that the discussion is retrieved is by matching the hash of the post title created by the format_title method with the key_val in the database. For some reason though, the key_val and $key do not seem to be matching. This is on my family blog at http://fedibblety.com/house. It does seem to be working fine on my personal blog at http://blog.robfelty.com . I have one hunch on what might be wrong. I use some html tags in many of the titles on my fedibblety blog. Could that be the problem? Maybe it would be better to pass the post_name to format_title instead of post_title?

Thanks again for your great plugin.

Rob

Ha! I didn't even notice that. I'm sure I had the GPL on there at some
point. Just assume it is GPL until I get the code updated with it. Thanks
for pointing that out

What is the copyright for the plugin? I see on WP's site that they say all plugins hosted on their site must be GPL compatible, but I don't see the GPL string in your code, just simply "Copyright 2008 Glenn Slaven". Should I assume that it is GPL since it is WP's site? Or was it inadvertently uploaded to WP?

Hi Thanks for this plugin. I would like to use it on mu wordpress. Obviously it will not work because the templates are shared in mu wordpress.

Hi Glenn, I've decided to use your plugin as I keep seeing it on loads of blogs I read and it's really useful!

However, I've added it to my template but nothing appears on the posts. I thought this may be a feature of the plugin that it doesn't show anything until there is a like or a comment, but I created a test comment and there is still nothing showing up on my post page. Example:
http://philipjohn.co.uk/blog/yahoos-delicious-f... (FF should appear after Disqus)
http://friendfeed.com/e/fb6dd544-7373-5e0d-718d...

When I refresh the comments/likes the debug message shows:
Loading FriendFeed Data
17 entries loaded from FriendFeed
0 entries loaded, 0 total entries stored.

Any ideas?

Hi Sally, sorry I don't but Pat Hawks has written one:

blogger, I don't know about typepad, but it's just javascript so it will
probably work there too

Hi Glenn, I saw this cool plugin on Steve Hodson's and Shey's blogs; very impressive! Do you have similar plugins for Typepad and Blogger by any chance? Pretty please :-)

do
