What is it?

The Facebook feed is a widget which can display information related to your Facebook Page.

What are the benefits?

Strengthen your brand and community relationships by socially engaging visitors directly on your store website, keeping more traffic and customers where you want them (instead of linking away to Facebook.com)

What are the features and options?

  • Display your cover image, page logo/avatar, number of page likes, and other info

  • Display your page’s posts, with photos, in a timeline format

  • Tabs for “Timeline”, “Events”, and “Messages” (Events and Messages are optional)

  • “Like Page” button

How do I use it?

If your store website has the Facebook feed installed, you can set it up as follows:

  1. In your CrystalCommerce admin, go to "Account"

  2. Click "Locations", then click "Edit" next to your store location when it's displayed

  3. Put your Facebook Page’s full URL into the Facebook URL  field

  4. Click "Save" at the bottom of the page

Important Notes

Only Facebook "Pages" are supported for the Facebook feed widget. Personal "Accounts" and "Groups" will not function.
