Any way to just display like box without FB posts?

Hey porkcharsui,

You can do this currently by just choosing to show 1 post and then hiding it with CSS. This isn’t an ideal solution though and so I’m pushing out an update later today or early tomorrow and will include the ability to set the number of posts to zero, which will then only show the Like box.

To do this currently, you would need to set the number of posts to be 1:

[custom-facebook-feed num=1 limit=1]

And then add the following CSS to the plugin’s Custom CSS section to hide it:

#cff .cff-item{ display: none; }

Let me know whether that works for you,

John

Hey again,

Just to let you know that I just released version 2.2 which allows you to just set the number of posts to zero – either on the settings page or in the shortcode – which will then only display the like box:

[custom-facebook-feed num=0]

Let me know whether that works for you,

John

Thank you so much John! Exactly what I needed. ??

If I may make a suggestion for future versions, a shortcode like likebox=true/false would be great to more “naturally” overwrite the general settings. num=0 works great but it might not be intuitive/self-explaining enough.

Thanks again for the support and documentation, it’s really appreciated!

No problem, happy to help!

Thanks for the suggestion. Setting the Like box to true or false in that manner is actually already possible – it allows you to hide or show the Like box at the top or bottom of your posts. I may end up adding another option though which allows users to show only the Like box.

No obligation, but if you like the plugin and feel like leaving a really quick review then it really helps to support the plugin!
