and check agree and click Create Application

Step 3. Codes To Add To Your Template.

you must add the following codes to your blogger template to ensure that the comments box will work for your blog in the right way.
and in this step we’ll add the following codes,

xmlns attribute
SDK script
Open Graph protocol tags

Adding the xmlns attribute :

please go to your blogger account again, and navigate to, layout >> edit html >> and checkExpand Widget Templates
then find the following code,

<html

you’ll find it on the top of your code. second or third line, and after it add the following code,

xmlns:fb='http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml'

you must type a space before it and after it,
here is an example.

 <html  xmlns:fb='http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml'  expr:dir='data:blog..............2005/gml/expr'  >

Adding the SDK script Code :

search for

<body>

and after it add the following code,

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
    window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
    FB.init({
      appId  : 'YOUR   APP ID',
      status : true, // check login status
        cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the   session
      xfbml  : true  // parse XFBML
    });
  };

    (function() {
    var e = document.createElement('script');
      e.src = document.location.protocol +   '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';
    e.async = true;
      document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e);
    }());
</script>

but please don’t forget to change YOUR APP ID to your app id ( you got it in the previous step ).

Adding the Open Graph protocol tags:

copy the following code.

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<meta   expr:content='data:blog.pageTitle' property='og:title'/>
<meta   expr:content='data:blog.url' property='og:url'/>
<b:else/>
<meta   expr:content='data:blog.title' property='og:title'/>
<meta   expr:content='data:blog.homepageUrl' property='og:url'/>
</b:if>
<meta   content='MY-SITE-NAME' property='og:site_name'/>
<meta   content='http://google.com/help/hc/images/logos/blogger_logo.gif'   property='og:image'/>
<meta content='YOUR-APP-ID'   property='fb:app_id'/>
<meta content='YOUR-FACEBOOK-PROFILE-ID'   property='fb:admins'/>
<meta content='article'   property='og:type'/>

and change the colored text to the following,
Change MY-SITE-NAME with the one you want to appear when a user likes a page. (Gil likes Helping on Facebook)

Changehttp://google.com/…/blogger_logo.gif with your blog logo, or remove the all tag if you don’t want it.

Change YOUR-APP-ID with your application ID number.
