In many cases where we have seen this issue we’ve found it to be down to either the Facebook APP Id not being entered in the dashboard field, or the APP not being setup correctly.  If you run your page through the Facebook debugger you will see what issues there are (note your page will need to be published in order to do this):

Other Potential Causes

From the drop down click the Discussion box.

Then click the WordPress tab (beside the OptimizePress tab) that are both under ‘Edit Page’. Tick the ‘Allow comments box.

Click the publish “Update” button in the right column then reload your published page and your comments should now be working correctly.

Your comments should now be working correctly on your published page
