You can take the example of our Facebook fan page at http://www.facebook.com/bloganoldotcom (Consider to like this Page). Here in this page we have currently used the Tab called Bloganol as the landing Tab. This tab contains the Snapshot of our blog with the blog link, a text link to the blog and a great comment form where facebook users can comment about our blog  that everyone will see.

So in this post we will be Talking about the same comment form as used in our page. To add the same style of comment form in your page, First you need to add a FBML application to your page and then you have to use the comment code inside it. Its pretty easy task, I have succeeded at the first shot. I got this code from the Facebok developers wiki about adding the comment code.The code in simple format goes below.

<fb:comments xid="bloganol_comments" canpost="true" candelete="false" returnurl="http://www.facebook.com/bloganoldotcom">
<fb:title>Comments here...</fb:title>
</fb:comments>

This code belongs to our page. You can edit the code according to your page. If you want to get a little advance then you can follow the tutorial at the Facebook Developer wiki.

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to make it so people can “like” the comments posted through the comment box?

-Thank You

Hey there, I have a quick question for you.
How could I add a like button for only that specific page(that specific custom tab that I built using Static FBML) and not for my entire fan page-do you get what I’m asking here?
I stripped out a piece of code so the “like” button doesn’t appear because it’s not what I wanted but a user CAN still make comments

So I would like to know the code to like a single page. Like how Kohls did it here

Thanks in advanced

This works great, but when a user comments, it only shows up on the Facebook page that they commented on – the one you pasted the code into. It isn’t shared on that user’s page, which is the goal since that would in turn share your page with all of that user who commented’s friends. Is there a fix for this?
