Edit WP posts? (but not change the FB original)

    Hi,

    Say i want to somehow edit the post that has come from FB.

    What i mean is: NOT change it on FB, ONLY change it on the WP site. I see no way to edit posts in the WP admin pages. I understand that the content comes from what’s on the FB page, but i can invisage scenarios where you’d want to slightly change the version that appears on your WP site.

    Perhaps this isn’t possible??!!

    Hey Darius,

    The Facebook posts aren’t converted to WordPress posts, they are read directly from Facebook’s API (and then cached temporarily in your WordPress database). The only way to change the actual post content would be to use JavaScript/jQuery in the ‘Custom JavaScript’ section of the plugin to search and replace and content you’d like to change.

    Hope that makes sense,

    John
