You've entered too much in one of the config fields -note the duplicate http://apps.facebook.com entry on the link? I think it is the app URL setting in wordpress admin for the plugin.

I set it up last night and sent you a subsequent Twitter message but for the benefit of everyone else, I'll comment here. My blog is <a href="http://ariwriter.com" rel="nofollow">ariwriter.com</a> and my Facebook app is <a href="http://apps.facebook.com/ariwriter" rel="nofollow">apps.facebook.com/ariwriter</a>, using the latest version off the WP plugin list, all seems to look fine except if I click into a page title, and I get a 'page not found' error, e.g. http://apps.facebook.com/http://apps.facebook.com/ariwriter/2009/01/guest-interview-with-heidi-cool-how-a-university-experiments-with-social-media/ I see what it's doing, but I am clueless how to fix it. Also, how can one add a FB comment if my WP comment feature is within the theme? Hi John, this looks neat.

My blog is ariwriter.com and my Facebook app is apps.facebook.com/ariwriter, using the latest version off the WP plugin list, all seems to look fine except if I click into a page title, and I get a ‘page not found’ error, e.g. http://apps.facebook.com/http://apps.facebook.com/ariwriter/2009/01/guest-interview-with-heidi-cool-how-a-university-experiments-with-social-media/

I see what it’s doing, but I am clueless how to fix it.

Also, how can one add a FB comment if my WP comment feature is within the theme?

It's not a question of the Tab URL, as the app doesn't expose a whole "profile tab" just a profile box - it will fit within either your main profile or the "boxes" tab of your profile if you have lots of apps - not provide its own tab. The "no content to display" message means that for whatever reason one of the functions in the application is failing - one which tries to set the FBML of the user's profile. If you'll send me the url of your app in facebook and your blog outside facebook, I can take a look and see if anything jumps out.

Everything seems to work, the canvas URL display and updates perfectly, I can invite friends to use the App. However, on my profile page (or if I move it to the Boxes page), all that keeps showing up is “No content to display” message instead of the five most recent posts. What am I doing wrong? BTW, after some more poking around, I have a feeling it has to do with the Profile Tab settings under User Profiles. What should I put in for the Tab URL? Thanks!

This plugin only works with self-hosted WP blogs, so far as I know. (I don't have any WP.com blogs to test it on). I'm not a user of <a href="http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2007/07/18/facebook/" rel="nofollow">WordPress' Facebook application</a>, as I understand it only works with blogs hosted at wordpress.com. According to many <a href="http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=2373049596" rel="nofollow">recent reviews on Facebook</a>, their app also stopped working. ;) This plugin doesn't (currently - perhaps next version) automatically add your new blog posts to your news feed, but it does add them to your profile box. This plugin does, however, allow users to read your blog posts inside Facebook - as opposed to linking them back to your blog externally - and allows them to comment on your blog posts with their facebook identity, then shows those same comments to all readers, regardless of whether they view your blog inside facebook or at its external url.
