 * Can I use this plugin to generate a shortcode for WordPress comments? I want 
   to have 2 columns below the content and put FB comments on the left and WP comments
   on the right. Problem is I can’t find a WP comment shortcode anywhere.
 * Thanks

 * Yes, you can!
 * Install the plugin and take a look at Settings > Custom Content.
 * “Use [comments] and [comment] to display recent comments, or those of the current
   post.”
 * “Display recent comments for the current post:”
 * `[comments count=3 id=this] [comment] by [comment author] on [comment date] [/
   comments]`
