Custom Facebook Feed aka Social Posts Feed

Description: Display Facebook posts on your WordPress site.

Plugin creator’s site: https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-facebook-feed/

How to use:

  1. An administrator should log in and scroll down the list of left hand menu options (beyond the usual Plugin section). “Facebook Feed” will be one of the items listed.
  2. In the Settings section, you’ll be prompted to log in to the Facebook account you want to embed and associate the correct codes with your publish.illinois.edu site configuration.
  3. At the location where you want to place the Facebook feed, use the short code custom-facebook-feed inside angle brackets like these [ ]. (I can’t type the short code properly in body text or it embeds the Facebook feed twice.)

Example:
