Hope so
I may try adding a popup explaining the moderation schedule, something like 'This board is checked daily and spammy, irrelevant or peurile comments will be removed. Please use this feature to leave comments , suggestions and/or suggestions for bookstore listings ONLY'
Yep I am able to delete but unfortunately I cant moderate i.e. pre approve messages...so I guess a certain amount of link dropping is inevitable
Have to see how it goes.
btw What do you think of the new Chatwing box on the bookstore front page? http://americymru.net/page/americymru-bookstore-1 It addresses the same problem in a way i.e. allowing non-members to comment. Its there mainly for bookstore listing suggestions but we could employ it more widely on the site. Hope we dont get deluged with spam tho ( it allows anonymous comments and links )
Agreed! FB has made a lot of bad moves recently. It seems that they want to BE the internet and monopolise all our dealings with it. Cant see that working out for them somehow.
Actually there is a lot of evidence to suggest that Facebook usage is in decline at the moment ( http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/12347927-survey-shows-a-34-percent-decline-in-facebook-usage ) as new social networking sites like Google+ and Pinterest start to eat its lunch
It is still too big to ignore, however, and yes...we do have a Facebook page, several in fact. Here is the main one:-
Oh well I guess this was an experiment that failed. It shows up inconsistently, does not display all comments, slows down pageload time and is generally buggy . We will just have to wait until the platform releases official code for this later on in the year. Meanwhile there are plenty of ways to share on Facebook and to interact with it generally. Built in FB commenting WILL BE BACK and next time....it will work
I will be removing the code later on today.
Additionally AC members will still be able to comment using the AC comment system. There is no intention either now or at any time in the future to remove that.
You may need to check the 'Post To Profile' checkbox below the comment box.
Hi John
Agreed privacy is a very important consideration. However I do not think we have very much to fear in this case. IF we go ahead Facebook will NOT have any access to additional data from this site. The plugin simply inserts a Facebook comment box on certain pages. Anything posted will be posted on FB BUT visible on AC. I repeat NO data will be made available to Facebook servers. Hope that puts your mind at rest
