    Hi,
    I replaced wordpress comments with facebook comments plug-in.
    It replaced all comments function but the comment count below the title. There is the word “Comment” left with hyperlink to post’s comment.
    What I want is to replace it with this facebook comment count which counts current number of fb-comments.

    <iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/comments.php?href=<?php the_permalink(); ?>&permalink=1" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:130px; height:16px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

    I found it on this site: http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/add-facebook-comments-to-your-wordpress-theme/

    I would like to ask, where exactly shoul I put that iframe and what else should I do to disable the old “Comment” link.

    Thank you 🙂

    Hi m.stevove

    Do you want to change posted on commentlink from WordPress comment to facebook link?

    Please try below code.

    Paste functions.php

    <?php
add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_on', 'my_change_comment_link' );

function my_change_comment_link( $posted_on ){

	$html = '<iframe
			src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/comments.php?href=%1$s&permalink=1" scrolling="no"
			frameborder="0"
			style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:130px; height:16px;"
			allowTransparency="true">
			</iframe>';

	$html = sprintf( $html, esc_url( get_permalink() ) );

    $regex = '!<a([^>]+)class="raindrops-comment-link"(.*)?>(.+)?</a>!';

	return preg_replace( 	$regex,
							$html,
							$posted_on
						);
}
?>

    Thank you.
