  This is my site – http://www.smartfertilitychoices.com

  I have a series of pages where the comments from the Facebook Social Plugins are not showing in the Moderation Tool.

  Here a just a FEW of those pages:

  http://www.smartfertilitychoices.com/pcosdietchallenge/lesson-1-sugar-high-gi-carbs/

  I reached out to the Facebook developers and they came back with:

  On checking your URLs it seems like there is an issue with the value supplied for the “article:author” property.
  Kindly update the value from
  <meta property=”article:author” content=”www.facebook.com/smartfertilitychoices” />
  to
  <meta property=”article:author” content=”https://www.facebook.com/smartfertilitychoices” />
  and run your URL through the debugger (Fetch New Scrape Information) and let us know if this helps resolve your issue.

  I am new to WordPress and have no idea how to implement this change. I have searched the appearance > editor > folders and cannot find one meta property tag pertaining to the above!

  Does anyone know how I can easily change the meta property?

  Thanks!

  These forums are for folks hosted here on WordPress.com.

  Since your site is self-hosted, with the WordPress software running on your own hosting, you can try asking for help over in the WordPress.org forums.

  Since the issue relates to a specific plugin, the best place to get help is in the plugin’s support forum at WordPress.org.

  Look for the plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/

  Once you find the right one, go to its page and click the green “View support forum” button, where you’ll be able to ask your question.

  You’ll need a free WordPress.org account to post – if you don’t already have one, you can register here:
