I don’t want a commenting system - this clooks like a commenting system. I woudl like to simply show an activity feed from a facebook page.

Cheers

Hey mazzal,

I searched around and I could not find anything. Devot:ee lists several options for Facebook, but nothing for streaming aside from Solspace.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Cheers,

hmmm thats very strange/sad.

Considering how important it is for clients to be able to integrate their websites and all forms of social media seamlessly for online marketing, I would have thought there would be a way to do this without having to pay extra, considering we are already paying to use expression engine.

I would have though this would have been pa priority for ExpressionEngine…

ps. thanks anoopbal for the link anyway, may come in handy on other sites grin

Cheers guys

Hello mazzal,

I hear you, but remember that ExpressionEngine is a true CMS and assumes nothing about content. This is perfect for a community that likes to develop add-ons. Someone in the community did develop an Add-On and is charging for their time and energy.

You might also consider integration on your own! If you have the PHP chops you could write something pretty quick following the FB Dev Guide. Just a thought.

Thanks again for your question!

Cheers,
