My specific use case is I'd like to put a link in the announcement banner in JIRA which says "Latest Blog Post in Dev Space" and that takes users to the most recent blog post in that space.
I'd prefer to not have to edit the announcement banner every time I add a blog post.
So instead of http://confluence.local/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=1234 I would have http://confluence.local/display/DEVTEAM/latestblog/
Doesn't pointing to the main blog page automatically show the latest blog post on top?
In that case your Jira just needs to link to the main blog page

We have set up Facebook Comment mirroring and it isn't mirroring the comments from Facebook to our website all the time. The URLs are posted utilizing the exact same tactics (no extra slash, no www, etc.). The URL that is loaded in the DOM on the page is the same exact URL that is posted on Facebook.
Here is an example of an article not working:
FB: https://www.facebook.com/djboothnet/posts/10153619844952006
URL: http://djbooth.net/news/entry/2015-05-23-eminem-childhood-home-bricks
Here is an example of an article working:
FB: https://www.facebook.com/djboothnet/posts/10153621575602006
URL: http://djbooth.net/news/entry/2016-05-24-oprah-paul-mccartney-kanye-west-block
These ARE new web pages that were created after we enabled the setting. Look at the posted date on the entries. There are entries older than that Eminem one that have comment mirroring working.

Comment mirroring only works for new URLs, that you added the comments plugin to for the first time after comment mirroring was enabled.
There is no way to activate it for older URLs, that have already been commented on before.
I have also noticed that not all posts has a comments mirroring. You can ensure and get more information from the Facebook API about if posts has comments_mirroring_domain filled with proper domain.
Please follow the checklist: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40578720/1815881
Notice, that From 6th Feb 2018 Facebook comments mirroring is deprecated and no longer supported.
Comment Mirroring: Pages that currently have Comment Mirroring enabled
will continue to mirror comments for the next 90 days. Full
deprecation of Comment Mirroring will conclude on 2/6/2018. Comment
Mirroring is no longer available for Pages that do not have it enabled
already.

On my website, I just added links to discuss posts on Facebook; you can see such a link at http://jonathanscorner.com/steel/ . The link redirects to https://www.facebook.com/pages/CJS-Hayward/9506801167, which lets people post but is initially empty.
I would like, if possible, to create a link that prepopulates the text of the comment to include the title and URL on my site. So someone who clicked on that link would have a posting that is prepopulated, '''I just finished "Within the Steel Orb" at http://JonathansCorner.com/steel/. '''
Is there some URL parameter I can use ('''...?text=I%20just%20finished...''') or other interface to prepopulate a comment in a JavaScript-generated link?
Thanks,
Short answer, you can't. Even with the feed dialog you can't prepopulate the comment area with some pre-defined text. What you can do is, using the feed dialog making people write their comments, and the connection of that feed redirects to your website.
The only problem is that this feed dialog would appear on the users feed an not on your page wall.
Another way, and this is the best option in my opinion, add the comments social plugin to your site, this way people would discuss that article on your page and every time they comment using this social plugin, the comments would appear on their facebook wall making their friends curious about that and maybe visit your site.
You can read more about that here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
I have a small blog hosted on blogger.com
I don't understand why, when people like or share a blog post on Facebook, the real content is never fetched as a summary.
For example, for this post, the summary is the small "about me" that I placed on the sidebar, while on this other post, the summary is the first comment.
It's weird, what I can do? There is a way, for example a class, to indicate the main content div?
You need to implement the Open Graph tags for Facebook into your blog.
Implement opengraph protocol on Blogger. It marks the post title, description, image, author etc using its markup language. Refer this tutorial on Implement ogp on Blogger
In the past, the logo + via appeared at the bottom of the post, now the "via" appears at the top beside the brand logo. I tried to search on the blog/support site first, but couldn't find anything. Thanks for your insight! I posted this on the PMD FB page and Jennifer Nieto recommended I post this here.
In newsfeed, the 'via' attribution still appears at the bottom of the post, however if it is an Open Graph action post, then there will be an additional attribution in the first line of the post which can be 'via Sitename', 'on Sitename', 'by Sitename' or a number of other alternatives.
The attributions appear in slightly different places on a users Timeline, in this case I think at the top of the post.
So I have a comments box of Facebook on my site ( one on each article I have on my blog ). My client likes a widget with the most recent comments on his site. I found the Activity Feed with the note:
Activity is also displayed when users share content from your site in
Facebook or if they comment on a page on your site in the Comments
box.
I filled in the App ID, but it does not show the comments? Does anyone have an idea how I can get the most recent comments posted in the activity feed?
You should retrieve your comments by your URL, not by app ID.
The comments for every URL can be accessed via the graph API. Simply go to: https://graph.facebook.com/comments/?ids={YOUR_URL}.
For example, the comments on this URL can be accessed via: https://graph.facebook.com/comments/?ids=http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments.
Detailed information: How do I access the comments left on my site?
