Anyone aware of a way to restrict the capability of users to comment on a wall post on a Facebook Page to those who have liked that particular Facebook page?
Or is the user-linked-page information really only useable and accesible in an Facebook App Tab page?
In any case, this will not be bullet proof, because anyone can comment a page even if the FB comment widget is not installed.
Try to fill the form on this page
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
with for instance www.google.com as URL.
You will be able to see comments has been made, (and you can add one) but I promise : Facebook has not installed any Facebook widget on google.com ;-)

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 am trying to add a Facebook comments box on my webpage.
I have tried several different plugins and they all have the same problem: When I try to comment on the facebook page in question through my website, the comment shows up on my website, but not on the Facebook page.
I have inputted the correct Facebook app ID and facebook page URL into the plugins.
I don't understand what I am doing wrong. I am using Rapidweaver as a web design program. Please help (and note that I am very new to this and not a programmer).
The comments will never show up on your Facebook page.
The comments plugin is a social interaction on your site, so users comment on your site not your Facebook page. No plugin will double post comments unless you explicitly ask for access from the user to post on your Facebook page. From what I have seen so far, no such plugin exists.
For more info: Read http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
I have created a Facebook App and a Facebook Page for a company. What I want to do is to trigger an event whenever someone adds a facebook comment on that company's website. This event will copy the comment and posts it to the company's Facebook Page (using the Facebook App). The name and the photo of the user who posts to the facebook page shouldn't be the original user, instead it will be replaced by the Facebbok App's name and photo.
How can I do that?
UPDATE
I have solved the first part here Posting comment to Facebook from JavaScript
the second part is still not solved yet (writing the comment back to the facebook page).
finally, I have managed to solve this.

I have implemented the Facebook Comments API using the documentation provided at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
The problem is that this uses my Facebook App and not my Facebook Company Fan Page.
I cannot seem to find any documentation telling me how to change this.
I want people to comment on my website and post the comments to my Facebook fan page (NOT my Facebook App)
Is this possible?
Yes it is possible.
First you have to customize the comment plugin for your page by filling "URL to comment on" textbox with your Facebook Page URL.
To get comments made, you should use Graph API. The URL that you can request with a valid acces token is https://graph.facebook.com/YOUR_PAGE_OBJECT_ID/comments
We have created a facebook-app which contains a fb:comment field. We have included the app on a fanpage. All works well so far, but when a user comments in the app on the fanpage and chooses to show comment on his/hers wall, the link that appears over the comment links to the app page and not to the fanpage.
Is it possible to customize the link to point to the fanpage instead?
No, there isn't a way to do this. Your best bet is including a link to your fan page on your application page.
