Embedded Facebook post

Ohhh, look at this, it’s an embedded Facebook post. If you would like to do this on your own blog, keep an eye out for the new Metronet Embed Facebook posts plugin for WordPress, which is coming soon.

    • What specifically don’t you understand? I’m not sure how to explain it any better than to just add the Facebook post URL to a post. It’s about as simple to use as you can possibly get as it uses the built in oEmbed API in WordPress.

    Hello,

    I’m very excited to use this plug-in once it starts working for me.
    At the moment it seems that when I make the post [facebookpost linkhere] no posts appears . Would you be able to tell me what I’m doing wrong?

    Also, I myself dont see any of the two posts you mentioned above.

        Ryan –
        You might want to consider adding a visual aid/timer so that people don’t freak out during any delays caused by API transport.
        The posts show up a good 10-15seconds after every other element loads up which is leading people to jump the gun.

  2. I notice that when I click on the comments, it takes me to the Facebook page directly. Is there any chance an update in the future will allow for comments to be added directly on our websites? Love the plugin too! Thanks for doing this. It was just what I was looking for on my blog.

    Hi,

    I get:
    This Facebook post is no longer available. It may have been removed or the privacy settings of the post may have changed.
    What’s the problem?

    • I’m having connectivity issues right now, so I can’t load that Facebook post. I’m guessing that is a Facebook page though, which I don’t think supports embedded posts.

    This I don\’t get: Where the hell does one find the post URL? Can\’t find it anywhere on the posts. Even IFTTT.com doesn\’t provide (I tried automating something). Please advice.
