Facebook Comment Count on Recent News widget

    We are using Facebook Comments exclusively on our site with the Snews theme. 

    On our home page, where we display the recent posts widget, it displays the comment count, but not the Facebook Comment count. Only displays the native WordPress comment count. So all of our posts right now say zero comments.

    Do I have to fix this in the theme? (I toyed around with the wg-main-cat.php file for a bit but to no avail) or is there a setting I am missing?

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi there!
    The comments count feature can only work with internal WP Comments at this time. We'll look if there's a way to count them up for FB comments as well and bundle this in next releases.
    For the time being, If you exclusively use FB comments, you may want to disable the comments count display in Theme Options > Miscelleanous >  Show Comments Count

    Regards
