=== Facebook CommentsTNG === Contributors: crazyspence Donate link: http://www.philtopia.com/?page_id=292 Tags: comments, facebook, integration Requires at least: 2.8 Tested up to: 2.8.6 Stable tag: 0.16 Facebook CommentsTNG will pull your comments from imported Facebook Notes back into your blog == Description == Facebook CommentsTNG will pull your comments from imported Facebook Notes back into your blog. Currently it has a test mode which will display any notes and comments that it intends to import ,a manual import button for manually importing comments, daily and hourly timers, a limit option for limiting how far back the plugin goes and an e-mail field that can be set if you have a gravatar you want used for facebook users. Additional features include: Pulling accurate comment time from original Facebook comment, Being able to pull comments from Facebook's under different languages. Enjoy and don't hesitate to ask me a question! == Installation == 1. Extract the plugin to your wordpress plugins directory 1. Activate plugin 1. Add your Facebook user and password to the settings 1. Do a test run to see if it works ok before risking the database 1. If that went well you can do Manual update or set an hourly or daily timer == Frequently Asked Questions == = Why doesn't it automatically scan hourly or daily? = It does since 0.12! yay! = It told me it ran out of memory with a fatal error = In most cases this has been corrected however it can still happen. Try to limit your crawl, I set mine to 10 for example. If you need the older comments you can change the start page to get them then change it back, historically facebook people only comment on new things anyways. If you are using filters or notifiers that handle comments as they come in this may double the load and cause an issue = I get Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR = You are not running PHP 5 and unfortunately this plugin requires it == Screenshots == 1. This is a shot of some Facebook imported comments with Gravatar's in the recent comments section 2. This is some comments on my blog with the Facebook Gravatar == Changelog == = 0.1 = * Scans all notes for comments and adds them to database to await approval * Test mode which only shows comments not detected in database = 0.11 = * Re arranged the check for a note that sees if it is a Wordpress blog to a point before downloading it to improve memory usage = 0.12 = * Prefixed all functions with tng_ to avoid conflicts with other funcions or plugins * Added limit function to limit how many notes are scanned, 0 to scan all notes. This will be helpful to people with many notes or small memory restrictions * Added timer functions for hourly and daily * Corrected comment adding function data as it was not adding a time or the facebook url to comments and this was causing it not to show properly in recent comments * Removed some commented out code from intial development that would not be needed * Renamed Settings page to Facebook CommentsTNG from Facebook NotesTNG = 0.13 = * Added e-mail address field so a custom e-mail address can be entered. Currently defaults to facebook@philtopia.com which has a Gravatar setup for a facebook icon * Added starting post field so the crawl can be started at a certain point * Moved Options Updated message to after the options are actually updated * Update e-mail addresses button will update the e-mail address field on all Facebook TNG comments. Meant to be used after changing the e-mail field = 0.14 = * Fixed a rogue variable that doesn't have any purpose and in some situations may have caused a syntax error * Set plugin to always read the facebook notes page in locale en_US to avoid breaking the parsing. This is done in a way that will NOT change your actual Facebook locale * Plugin can now pull the time from your comments and add them as the same times in WordPress * Fixed an ovesight with the timer settings that may have cause the timer to occur many times depending on how many times you saved options = 0.141 = * Plugin activation hook was not firing for new people, if you have already setup the plugin this isnt crucial but this will make sure all new users will have the default facebook@philtopia.com gravatar and that start post is set to 1 = 0.15 = * Fixed a bug with my time format that was causing the time to be wrong * added auto approving option but please make sure you verify test and manual work before using it! = 0.16 = * Made code more accepting of non standard databases * Some characters having issues have been corrected, not all
