Description

Description

Simple Like Page Plugin enables Facebook Page admins to promote their Pages and embed a simple feed of content from a Page into any WordPress blog. The Facebook Page Plugin we use in our plugin enables users to:

  • See how many users already like this Page, and which of their friends like it too
  • Read recent posts from the Page
  • Like the Page with one click, without needing to visit the Page
  • See Page Events
  • Send messages to your Page*

*To enable messaging on your Facebook page go to your Page Settings. In the row Messages check Allow people to contact my Page privately by showing the Message button

You can easily integrate Like Page using WordPress Widgets and Shortcodes. Visit Plugin Page for more info and examples.

Adding Spam to the dashboard

A shame they decided to add a SPAM ad for Oxygen to the dashboard. Yes, you can dismiss it, but it is very poor practice to put it there in the first place.
