I am using Facebook comments for my wordpress blog, so far evertyhing was working good, but recently, when the user comment on my site, their comment doesnt get posted on their profile even though they thick the option saying publish this on facebook at the comment box. Is there any recent setting or option to fix this problem? Or how can I test and see what is the cause of the problem?
And, Open graph brings pretty nifty cool options and settings, do I have to change or specify any special options for the comment box used on my site?

All the Facebook comments have disappeared from our site's webpages (see: http://www.around-around.com/wanted-13/).
I've run the pages through the Debugger, and it appears that they're ok (just warnings about descriptions, etc.).
But when I was trying to see if there was new code for the comment box from FB, I used the FB comment plugin creator—that's when something strange happened. The example site shows up just fine; our site is rendered with a .... Weird! Frustrating!
We've been using FB comments for over a year now, and they work pretty well. But this is really frustrating. Here's some proof: https://graph.facebook.com/?ids=http://www.around-around.com/wanted-12/
Have we been...um...banned?
It's a facebook comments plugin issue at the moment. Check this https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/383938611736678?browse=external_tasks_search_results_5269356c254c23e51751890
Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
How do I solve an issue where the Facebook comments plugin seems to be completely broken? Please see the screen shot.
When I am logged in to Facebook, I see what you see there. Where the plugin HTML is meant to be, it says "skin must be one of the following values: light, dark".
When I am logged out of Facebook, it is completely blank. I am seeing this error on all browsers, on multiple test computers (including various configurations on browserstack.com), on every website that I can find that uses the Facebook social comments plugin - including Facebook itself!
It looks like Facebook have dramatically changed their comments plugin code. All sites using this plugin will probably have to update their code ASAP because the old code doesn't seem to work any longer.
To get Facebook's own page working, I just had to type in "light" in the Color Scheme box.
i am using facebook connect apps for facebook comment box on my website i have follow tutorial on https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2009/02/19/commenting-with-facebook-connect/

The comments plugin requires an href parameter.
what am i doing worng?
Just create the comment plugin with the official generator and you are fine:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
of course you need a link for the comment plugin, just take your actual page. it´s kind of a unique id for the comment plugin, so you should never change it when you got comments already.
Btw, the tutorial link you posted is from 2009. If you want to implement something, try to find a newer source next time ;)
I followed the directions at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/ to add a comment box to my Dreamweaver template and it worked - but all comments made show up on all pages, no matter which page the comment was actually made on. Plus, when it posts to a user's profile, it just links to "beachpaper.com." How do I tell the code that I don't just want a comment box for the domain URL - I want it to automatically know what page it's on and make a comment box that's independent from the others on the site? Is there anyway to do this without manually changing the code on each page?
I am trying to add the Facebook comments box to my site.
The problem I am having is that I want to disable the ability to post under various circumstances. An example of this would be "If the user is not logged in: Show all of the comments so far, but instead of the ability to add comments, display a "Sign Up to Comment" button.
Right now, the best idea I can come up with is to just remove the whole comment box and replace it with the aforementioned button thus getting rid of all of the existing comments. This will not work for my purposes, because there would be no incentive for the user to sign up using this method.
I have looked into trying to create two versions of the comment box: one with the permission to post, and one without. However, I did not seem to find any way to do this.
Now I am just completely out of ideas.
Any help is very much appreciated.
The Facebook comments plugin is limited as to what it can do. All of the options are documented on the developer site. I don't see where you could specify how it is displayed like you want. I would suggest building your own facebook app to do comments, then you have full control over how comments are displayed.
