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?

    Are you able to moderatie your comments? Do you have `fb:app_id` with same Application ID OpenGraph meta in your pages as you used in Activity Feed? – Juicy Scripter Feb 28 '12 at 19:30
  • Yes to both. There is a tool I can use in Facebook to see all the public comments on a certain app_id and that works, but how to implement that on your website. – Mark Feb 29 '12 at 13:07
  • Can you paste the code you are using to show the activity feed, as in the fbml. does it show anything, like any activity if not comments? – Sid Mar 06 '12 at 02:54

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?

  • I understand but I like to retrieve the comments throughout the website, without querying every url on it. – Mark Mar 02 '12 at 10:48
  • Oh, sorry. Once I saw similar question, but there was no solution found. – Oleg Mar 02 '12 at 12:06
  • That's unfortunate to hear. I see no reason why one would not be able to receive the public reactions belonging to an APP_ID :( – Mark Mar 02 '12 at 12:55
