Using albums from facebook business page

Hi shanegranite,

Yes, all that should work. You can follow instructions in the plugin to import images from a public page, and there is no limitation to how many photos you can import. If you have issues, let me know.

Hi, how can I do this for a business page?
I would like to have the pictures in a fb business page automatically be streamed / loaded in the widget in wordpress.
Where can I find some information about it? Because right now I only see my personal photo’s

Regards,
Bas

Hi Bas,

Business pages are public pages and will work with the plugin if they have no restrictions. You can give the text widget the ability to render shortcodes by adding this to functions.php in your theme.

add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

Then you can copy/paste the album shortcode into a text widget. You can use different attributes on the shortcode to make it display nicely. Limit and order probably what you want.

Example:
[fb_album width=75 height=75 id="2323232323" limit=12 order="desc"]

Hope that helps.

Hi Mike,

TO go along with the feed that discusses the Business Album Feed, is this feed able to be dynamic so that once a photo is added on Facebook it automatically appears on the WordPress page?

Thanks!

Hi KP,

Not yet. I haven’t had a lot of time to dedicate to the plugin lately, but the eventual plan is to do auto syncs. I need to rework a bunch of code to do this though and just haven’t found the time lately.
