Microformats - providing essential meta-data to facebook & crawlers
This makes sure facebook knows what a page is about, and the information
is also used by google and other search engines to display additional
information in search results
Facebook comments The Comments Box easily enables your users to comment on your site's
content — whether it's for a web page, article, photo, or other piece of
content. Then the user can share the comment on Facebook on their Wall
and in their friends' streams.
I will look into the Microformats things when i have time, regarding the comments they only have a XFBML version and Iuse the Iframe version now. I will look at that later cause it seems much more versitile and flexible.
I also am just finnishing a "Twitter Goodie" package - just some problems with the macro property type.
I've added the like button to a template and it looks great, however I can't manage to get the URL of the current page into the FacebookPageUrl=" " dynamically.
Does this plugin only allow the link 'to be liked' to be entered manually? Has anyone managed to get round this?
I suppose this would be my only suggestion to a plugin that otherwise works very well :)
I have done a shot on the Comments plugin, and also added a Facepile plugin. The comments, do not have iframe version as the rest, so it is using the XFBML script thing.
Nice! 2 suggestions

Hey,
Very handy plugin indeed!
I've added the like button to a template and it looks great, however I can't manage to get the URL of the current page into the FacebookPageUrl=" " dynamically.

Hi Ashley,
I have done a small fix, if you do not enter an url, it picks current url and sends to facebook.
Try it out, and hope it is what you wanted.
