loukasgr Hi. You may edit file /html/com_k2/templates/default/item.php and at the bottom of this file You will find a code for comments. You should delete everything except for the parent layer which will be used by facebook comments.

    Hello teitbite ,
    Can you help me with what exactly I need to delete?

      Good day saguaros ,
      Sorry for problem with ftp , I change pass and seems all ok

        loukasgr Sorry for problem with ftp , I change pass and seems all ok

        The ftp details are working now however, The specific page entered in edit fields for which edits have been sought for, is now returning with 404 error henceforth, the modifications being done to specific file wont reflect due to specific page not rendering currently. Kindly check or you may let us know some other page where the specific menu type is being rendered from the site

          Hello aman204 ,
          I change the link, but you can check any article in any category of the site ... I have the problem in any of them

            loukasgr As apparently seen, BT Social share plugin can be seen with K2 comments not rendering currently. Ref: Screenshot. Kindly confirm if it is fine now

              Hello aman204 ,

              Yes it show plugin but now it does not work its commend ... nor with the activation of comments from K2 ..
              What I want to do is to disable comments via K2 and have comments through Plugin so they can comment via Facebook Account

                loukasgr Hi again. My idea was to remove all the code between:

                <div class="itemComments">
                ...
                </div>

                but You will still need to have K2 comments activated in settings. Facebook comments are attached to this layer so it is neccessary to show this layer, but code of k2 comments can be deleted so it will not render k2 commenrts.

                  So teitbite ,
                  What part of the code I need to delete ? Sorry for trouble you but Im not so good with the codes ... :/

                  loukasgr What I want to do is to disable comments via K2 and have comments through Plugin so they can comment via Facebook Account

                  Kindly confirm if the facebook commenting feature renders as envisaged by you when assigning Default Joomla Template

                    Hello aman204,
                    I add you screenshots, the first is with protostar and the second is with Mitius.
                    Both screenshots is with "comments" active.
                    But on Mitius now both comments missing ...


                    Plus i notice with "comments" active i have "read more" and "leave a comment" showing on the right at the corners

                      loukasgr You can change the above CSS in custom.css file :

                      .bt_facebook_comment, div.itemCommentsForm{display:none;}

                      to

                      .bt_facebook_comment{display:none !important;}
                      div.itemCommentsForm{display:block !important;}

                      as this is the form rendering in default template too

                      Good Day@aman204#50403 ,
                      I did it but nothing change :/

                        Oh thanks aman204 ,
                        And now only remain to remove from home page "read more" and "add comments"
