I've integrated fb:comments using the href parameter, but I am now stuck in a situation where I need to retrieve the comment count without fb:comment-count.
I normally use an FQL query such as below...
$result = $facebook->api(array(
'query' => 'SELECT post_id FROM comment WHERE xid = "' . $xid . '"',
'method' => 'fql.query'));
$comment_count = count($result);
However, there is no href column present in the comment table. Is there another way to do this? I have tried seeing if xid and href are interchangeable... no luck there. I'm also finding that fb:comments plugins created with xid id's are breaking a lot on me (see http://65beta.us/fb/fb1.php ).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
