Default Facebook? "New Replies"

Glad to see that CL has linked itself to Facebook, but I've noticed that when people post on their wall that they have made a new reply and has a link on our wall, the link never works? Is that a CL issue or facebook issue?

Heres a screenshot of what I'm speaking of, and here is the link that is there and is where it takes you:

Thanks Nathaniel,

How is the 'reply' link to the thread getting posted on your wall in the first place? Are you using the 'like' icon from CL?

When I pushed the 'like' button on this thread we're posting in once I replied it got posted on my FB wall

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001050339562

but links right back here to this thread w/o issue

The person I get these notifications from I believe is using an Iphone and apparently when he logs into CL through facebook and replies to a thread, it posts on facebook that he replied to a topic on CL. Basically CL is working like a facebook application and every time he posts on CL the app posts on his wall the actions he made; kinda like whey you buy a new fish on aquarium app or whatnot.

Have not seen any way to make the FB link work like that unless I'm missing some new feature that has been added... I suspect EN_VY is manually pushing the CL FB like button or using some other application to link out his posts which appends something to the URL.

Lol, yep that's me, how did you guess? And no, as soon as I log into my computer using the Facebook icon, whatever I reply is reflected on my wall. I am not pushing the "like" button either. Sometimes the pages work, and most of the time the don't. I'm not complaining or anything. It's just an extra.

Just a matter of going to the thread that is posted in the picture and finding your reply.

Yep - plus I'm a pretty good internet sleuth, lots of practice

I've reported the issue to the Internet Brands tech guys so hopefully they'll figure out what is going on.
