I am trying to make a web page with joomla CMS.
I have tried every possible free extension for share, like on facebook, twitter and linkedin...BUT whenever i install another plugin which is not related to social plugins all the article's posts on facebook change images, links and titles.
You might be interested in using the K2 component.
K2 in in nutshell is an extended article manager that includes many more features such as a voting, comments and sharing system. The social buttons include Facebook, Twitter and Google+.
I would strongly advice it:

I'm using a plugin called FooBox for wordpress that puts share buttons on top of images within a Pop-Over.
Within the settings of this plugin is an option to:
Enable Facebook's new feed dialog way of sharing, rather than their old (and deprecated!) sharer.
Please note that this method requires a Facebook App Id in order to function!
I'm not exactly a developer... so I cannot determine what this means, if its better, how so..
Could someone explain in laymen terms what this is?
Thank you
The old sharer method is no longer deprecated, as Facebook have recently updated it (and removed the deprecated notice that was on their site for ages). Both methods have pros and cons. This is my understanding:
FaceBook Sharer
Easy to implement and no facebook app id needed in order to setup
Can share to personal timeline as well as other facebook pages you are admin for
Sharer recently was updated (Feb/Mar 2014) and no longer accepts custom images and overrides anything you pass it with the image opengraph tags used on the page you are linking to. This is a major problem when used with lightbox solutions like FooBox, because the specific image that is shared no longer gets recognized by facebook.
Feed Dialog
More involved to setup and get working. An app ID is required and the app ID cannot be shared across domains.
It only allows you to share to your personal timeline. No support for sharing to pages that you are an admin for.
It accepts custom images, so FooBox works and the specific image that is shared is the image that is shown in the user's timeline.
I am the developer of FooBox and will be updating the plugin soon with an updated explanation to help users on learning what the difference is.
And since Facebook have removed support for custom images since Mar 2014, we will no longer recommend the sharer, but rather push the feed dialog.
More Info

Response from facebook about no longer supporting the custom image for the sharer.
Which Facebook plugin do i need to use for my website,that would let visitors make comments/reviews and those comments are shown on my Facebook Business page.
I have already tried the Comments Plugin but that is showing the comment to the person profile that has left the review.
well if you are using Wordpress,you may use Wordpress plugin provided by Facebook itself.Another chance is you are not using Wordpress ,then you either need to develop your own application for this,or you can use a third party app.You may find a nice app here:

I have tried for a month to set up Facebook comments on my site. I want the comment box on my post pages. Also, I want the social buttons which seem to be there sometimes. What file do I place the JavaScript SDK code on, in my PHP or CSS (or is it pasted into each post page)? Then do I cut and past the plugin code into each page I want it to be available, or just in one theme file? I'm lost in this sense and no one seems to be able to give me an answer.
All of the information you will need is on the Facebook developer page! If you are using Wordpress you may easily implement Facebook comments by installing the official Facebook plugin.
As you know, a lot of bigger news websites have intorduced "social readers" for Facebook (e.g. https://apps.facebook.com/wpsocialreader/), which log what the user has read into the activity stream ("Michael read..."). Is it possible to integrate similar functionality into a Wordpress blog? Are the relevant API's open? Are there any plugins available? Thanks.
UPD: http://trac.ahwebdev.fr/projects/facebook-awd
The plugin seems to do the trick. Will have to try it out!
Yep, all of the APIs required to recreate the WashPo Reader or the Guardian reader etc are open, so it shouldn't be an issue to implement it for Wordpress.
Here's the relevant docs - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
i am the creator of Facebook AWD.
From now to get actions publishing working with Facebook AWD and wordpress you must buy a subplugin.
This process will take place with the v1.3 of Facebook AWD
Update: The plugin is ready here: http://facebook-awd.ahwebdev.fr/plugins/opengraph-actions/
Came across this post while searching for something related. Anyone still thinking of integrating Social read with any blog or website can simply use this plugin(For non-developers or for developers who just want to use a ready made solution)..

I know there is a plugin to put facebook comment app into Wordpress, which automatically merge the comments. The problem is that I installed the plugin hard-code style, so I don't have any plugin page on Wordpress, I just check the comments with the moderator tool at facebook. Now I don't want it anymore, and I'm not finding a way to export the comments to wordpress. Tried this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook-import-comments/ but doens't work, doesn't event my App ID. Any ideas?
Try Facebook for SEO - it should import them into your database (just noticed that it won't import the user pic with the comment, but it worked on mine). I was using the social media plugin for Facebook comments using the FB developers app.
