    Hi,
    I managed to set up my feed to show in a widget, but I’d like it on one of my pages and I can’t get this to work.
    I’ve tried pasting the code into both the visual and text areas but it’s not appearing.

    Can anyone help with what I’m doing wrong please?
    Thanks

    Hey Nic!

    Can you copy and paste here the shortcode that you are using?

    Thanks!

    Oh, sorry, I’d deleted it and now that I try again it’s not working in the widget either.

    The help tab in the Plug in settings says:
    To output the custom Facebook Feed, place [ik_fb_feed colorscheme=”light” use_thumb=”true” width=”250″ num_posts=”5″ id=”123456789″] in the body of a post.

    It’s in the main body of a page I’d like it to appear.
    Thanks

    Hey Nic –

    I think my docs are a bit confusing, and I will update them.

    Try just using:

    [ik_fb_feed]

    If your settings are correct and the feed shows on the Dashboard Help tab, then it should appear on your website if your theme parses shortcodes.

    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi,
    Sorry, I think I’m getting there now.
    I wasn’t really sure about the shortcodes, so I just tried pasting it directly into either the Visual or the Text areas.

    I’ve used a shortcode now, and went for a box-note – and it works, but it has a yellow background, so I presume this is supposed to be like a post it note.

    Can you suggest a shortcode I should use, just to insert a bit of code like this – Under Data the options are Meta, User & Post – none of which seem applicable.

    Also, while I’m on, can you confirm for me that this is a free service, and will always include the photos appearing. I saw a message somewhere saying I had 8 days left of the trial – am I going to have to pay for it after this time?
    Thanks very much for your help,

    Sorry, never mind – I’ve realised I just need to get my head around shortcodes, I don’t really understand them.
    Thanks anyway

    Sorry Richard, would you mind giving me the code to put in for just having the like button please?
    I managed to get it by playing about with the code I found, but when I click on it, nothing seems to happen in my actual Facebook page, and when I click on the link to leave a comment, it doesn’t take me anywhere.
    I’m a bit lost with all this, any help you can give would be great.
    Thanks v much

    Hey Nic!

    You want to use [ik_fb_like_button] to have a Like button that Likes the page you are currently looking at.

    Hope that helps!

    Best,
    Richard
