  • This could be due to the path or directory that the current plugin is set to. Where did you place the image you want to be detected? Make sure they are in the same directory as the one that is currently being detected.
    This might also include, you changing the current path that the plugin is pointing or searching at.

    It looks like you are actually looking for the same image, and the only difference is the current plugin path. The plugin is searching on this path: “https://wp.saimatkong.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12”
    and your image is on this path: “https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/v/t1.0-9”

    You might also need to add the fb url somehow.

    Sorry, i’v tried many ways, for now, i couldn’t pull image from facebook image link, it looks like be encrypted.

    I do not think you can access facebook images. You have to login into your facebook account to access these images. Is the image located in your facebook account? If that is the case, then you should know that your facebook profile is not public and cannot be access by the public unless they also login.
    This url link is private, and what you need to do is simple, download the image from the facebook account and save it on your local host or wherever you have saved your web information.

    Hey Michael,

    I just tried and able to pull all the images from facebook to my local. It works! Thanks!

    I’m facing a lot of issues with the direct link using the facebook full url as it changed so all the images in my blog is not loading correctly and I need to update the link and covert them to my local using your plugin.

    Appreciate your hardwork! Thanks once again.

    Great!

    Not sure if it will work for your application, but here’s what I do to get FB images. I first Pin them to Pinterest, then I have an IFTTT that auto sends them to my WP and once they come into WP, this plugin takes care of the rest.

    It’s a round about way, but it keeps you from having to do anything other than grab the image in cyber land and allow it to make its way to your WP site without having to manually download it.

    Also, to Pin FB images you have to get an addon for Chrome that will bypass FB’s no linking limitations. It’s out there and it does still exist at the time of this post.
