I'm using the Facebook Comment plugin for comments on my site. I was hoping that comments made to links shared on my Facebook Page would also show up on my website.
For example, if I share a link to a blog post on my Facebook Page, and someone comments directly to that shared link, that comment does not also appear on the website.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to sync these two?
I think comments are self-contained. You could maybe use the API to build something that shares comments on your page with comments on your blog.

I have a page on the site with comments implemented by plugin Facebook Сomments https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/comments. Also, I have Facebook post with comments (like this - https://www.facebook.com/20531316728/posts/10154009990506729/)
Is it possible to synchronize comments of the plugin Facebook Сomments and comments on the Facebook post? I want to messages, added to the Facebook post, displayed on the web page with the plugin Facebook Comments. And vice versa.
That’s called Comment Mirroring – see docs for the plugin, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/comments/
Be aware though that this will only work on new URLs, after you enabled it; it will not work for URLs that you already had the plugin on before.
I am using FB graph API to fetch people's posts on community pages, such as this
I used the graph API explorer with url
However, if I try the /tagged url with a non community page such as this, I can retrieve people's posts on the page.
Do anyone know why /tagged only work in non community page?
Thank you!
Not really sure what do you mean with "Community pages" but this is a problem of permissions. Quoting the docs:
/{page-id}/tagged shows the posts to this page. It will also show some
posts in which the page has been tagged. It will only show tagged
posts where the person who made the post have installed the same app.
Link to the docs: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/page/feed
So probably you do not have permissions to see post for that particular page.
I hope it helps.
I read about the possibility to mirror Facebook comments. The idea is that when you share a link from your website to your Facebook page, comments on your webpage will also appear as comments on your Facebook post and vice versa. https://developers.facebook.com/products/social-plugins/comments/
I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing using the Disqus comment system? That means for any Facebook post that is a link to my website, is it possible to show the comments on that post on my website too using the Disqus comment system?
I know it's possible with LiveFyre but I don't want to switch my comment system ...
No, that is not possible. The Facebook Comment Mirroring uses the Facebook Comments plugin. So the comments on your site, using the plugin, will also appear on the Facebook Post that the publisher has shared (and linked via a special API).
It is not possible to make the comments using the Disqus plugin appear on the Facebook post. They don't support that special integration.
I have Facebook comments social plugin integrated into my website. I was wondering if there is any way that user comments posted on my website would show up on out fan page as well? Something like User XYZ has commented on article ABC?
Sounds like custom functionality to me.

How do I know when someone comments on my site?
You can subscribe to the 'comment.create' and 'comment.remove' events through FB.Event.subscribe.
And that process is here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.Event.subscribe/
Create an app publish an action, on behalf of the page (NOT the user). But here's the kicker: if they don't have control over the privacy of it, you probably shouldn't use their name on your page wall, at least not their full name.
I have a wordpress blog. Is it possible to publish a link to facebook so that the published link on my facebook business page has the same like counter as the one on the blog?
Also, can the comments section be the same? (i.e. if I post the link on facebook, when someone comments, it automatically updates the comments section of the blog post and vice versa?)
This is not possible, each set of likes and comments are independent. There is no way to perform a merge of this data currently.
The Facebook Wordpress plugin provides essentially most of what you can do currently to link Wordpress to the Facebook API http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook
You can't link the like counter of your posts and pages to your Facebook page, why? They're all separate post and pages. It only makes sense.
What you can do? You can announce your post on Facebook (timeline or business page) and all can comment on it. You can add Facebook comments to your posts and pages. The commenter has the choice of that comment showing up in his Facebook timeline. People can "like" the post announcement, or the post itself if you have the Like button on it. They both act separately because for people to actually like your post, they have to visit the page. For analytics it makes sense because you want to know who is in your Facebook page and who actually clicks to visit your site. Both are not the same, and that's the point.
If you want to actually merge your site with Facebook, it will have to be in the form of a Facebook app. If that's the direction you want to take, I believe you can find some help here on the matter.
