I just want to see what it looks like when I add a comment, being logged in through Facebook connect. I hope I can delete it myself, if not you can remove this comment anytime… Sorry for messing around.

Sorry Austin, its been 10 months since I wrote the update. I don't remember the particulars any more. I strongly suggest you use Disqus support. They were usually terrific and responsive whenever I had problems. Good luck.

I have removed my 404 URL from the Cross-Domain Receiver URL field on the Disqus main settings page, but I'm still having the same problem. However, I'm not sure that the change has propagated yet, as new posts still appear without reloading the page.

Thanks Dale for being the only person to bother to put together a reasonable and accurate tutorial for this. That being said, I'm still having a problem when I try to login using facebook connect. I followed your steps exactly, and the FC login screen comes up. Filling the form and pressing return simply reloads my homepage in the same window that came up for FC login. Navigating back to the place where I want to leave a comment in that window shows that my status is still as a "guest." The wierd thing is that it will sometimes work if I am already logged into facebook, and filling in the FC form on my site actually logs me into the normal facebook site if I visit afterward. I don't know what is going on with this. The other logins work just fine (twitter and the like).

My url is: strengthandhope.com (the site is under construction, so don't be surprised by ugly formatting). My best guess at the problem right now might be that I am using a "cross domain receiver URL" in my disqus general settings page. Entering a known 404 URL into the field at the bottom of the disqus general settings is supposed to allow for such things as posting comments without reloading the page. I'm using: http://example.com/does-not-exist/ for my known 404 URL.

But honestly, I have no idea. I've tried everything, and I'm about to give up on this thing.

Jonathan, while I wrote, and rewrote, this post some time ago, I think the post is still up-to-date in terms of accuracy. In order for your comment to publish back to your Facebook profile, which is what I am assuming you want to do, you have to login with your facebook account and not a disqus account as it appears you have. If/when you login and comment via facebook connect one of the options is to publish your comment back to facebook.

Hey Dale. I know this is an old post, but is there still a way for users to publish back to their profile that they commented on your site? (or mine)

Another reason why facebook beats out other social networking sites. It just has diverse applications. I read hundreds of essays in my class on why the kids surf the net and alost all of them wrote down facebook.

I am also having the same problem. I've tried including the xmlns in the HTML tag, I've tried including the js file from facebook… but neither works.

I'm having a problem getting Facebook Connect to work in my blog. I've created several applications just like you instructed but when I try clicking on the facebook connect button on my blog–a facebook page loads that says “The page requested cannot be found”. Ive tried several application with different API keys to no avail.

You guessed right. I'm not using a Kubric-based theme. Nonetheless, Disqus integrates just fine, as you can see

are you using a WP theme that is based on Kubric? I'm guessing you aren't, because Disqus integrates nicely with most Kubric-based themes.

Thanks for the information. Feel a bit ridiculous that I spent half the day trying to figure it out with the Disqus help pages. Your post took me all of 10 mins. Where do I apply to Disqus to get my time value back?

Terrific. It's good to know the post is still useful with the newer versions of Disqus and Wordpress.
