 * confused about how to set up the subscription function, I enabled it in settings
   but I get an error on the post.
 * > Subscribe is not enabled for [http://www.facebook.com/jude.quin](http://www.facebook.com/jude.quin).
 * the error links to [https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/subscribe/](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/subscribe/)
 * where I’m promted to create a subscription button using my fb id. But what do
   I do with this code? does it work with the plugin or is it a sperate thing?

 * maybe the error should link to this page instead?

 * there’s a big buttom that says “enable subscriptions” I clicked it and the error
   I was getting below my posts is gone.
 * No idea how I ended up there, not sure if subscriptions are to my personal fb
   account or my organization fb account which is using the plugin.. I think. Or
   is my personal fb page using it too? or is there no difference? I’m really confused
   about how the 2 are integrated.

 * after spending many hours in trial and error, it appears the subscription can’t
   be for a fb “page” or at least not a “local business” page. It only worked for
   my personal fb account.

 * It’s a difficult plugin. I set it up for some clients but I get the wrong apps
   showing up in their settings. The documentation never mentions how a developer
   might use it for client sites.

 * If you mean the subscription issue, I haven’t revisited.
 * If you mean setting it up for someone else’s fb account,
    you have to be logged
   in to that fb account when you create and configure the app. I’ve done it a few
   timss now.
