Facebook page display for WordPress
WpDevArt Facebook Like Box Pro helps you place a Facebook page on your WordPress website so visitors can view it and interact with it. The plugin can be added to a sidebar widget, inserted into posts and pages with a shortcode button, displayed in a popup, or shown in a sticky box on the left or right side of the website.
The Pro edition builds on the available page display settings with additional controls for Facebook page content, borders, popup behavior, sticky box presentation, and animation. It is designed for website owners who want to make a Facebook page more visible in different areas of a WordPress site.
Pro capabilities
- Facebook page posts: display posts from your Facebook page.
- Border controls: set a border color and choose whether to show or hide the border.
- Popup placement: display the page plugin on the home page, posts, pages, or everywhere.
- Timed popup appearance: specify the number of seconds before the popup appears.
- Sticky box options: use the available sticky box settings and position the box on the left or right side of the website.
- Animation effects: choose from 39 animation effects for widgets and post or page displays, or use the animation randomly.
- Responsive design: the plugin is described as mobile friendly and intended to work on mobile devices and other devices.
- Premium support: the Pro feature list includes premium support.
Display options and settings
The plugin includes settings for width, height, language, title, title color, title font family, header size, friends faces, and cover photo visibility. These options help you adjust the page display to fit the available space and the presentation of your website.
For content placement, the plugin supports the sidebar widget and shortcode-based insertion in posts and pages. A shortcode can also be used for displaying the Facebook page in PHP code. Popup and sticky box settings are available from the plugin submenu in the WordPress admin area.
Practical uses
Use the widget when the Facebook page should remain visible in a sidebar. Add the display to selected posts or pages when it is relevant to specific content. A popup can present the page across the home page, posts, pages, or the entire website, with a configurable delay. The sticky box provides another persistent placement option without limiting the display to a standard sidebar.
Installation and setup
Install the plugin by selecting the plugin ZIP file; the provided instructions state that the ZIP does not need to be extracted. After installation, add the widget to a sidebar and configure its options, including the page ID, width, and height. For posts and pages, use the plugin shortcode button. To configure a popup or sticky box, open the plugin submenu in the WordPress admin area and set the required options.
If cached content is being used, the instructions recommend clearing the website cache after making changes. Language-setting questions and other issues can be directed to the plugin support forum.
