Any Facebook experts? I need help setting up Facebook Page Plugin

This is not a Newspaper tech issue. I simply can’t figure out how to to get the Facebook Page Plugin box to work.

The person whose site I manage has some other products and 4 different Facebook business pages.

Three work perfectly when I go to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin/.

The only page that doesn’t work is associated with the site I manage.

Do I have to setup a FB App ID or something else to make this work? I have again tried to do this but I’m ignorant of how to do it, and have had no success finding an up to date easy tutorial to guide me.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Should work, simply configure it as you want and use the get code button they provide

The body tag can be found in the theme here – https://www.screencast.com/t/hMLKW8Gil

The code that displays the actual page plugin (step 3) can be entered in a raw HTML element with this result

Thanks Simon, the problem I’m having isn’t with Newspaper Theme or generating the code at Facebook.
When I go to the Facebook developers page, for the business page that I want to generate page plugin code, there is no code!
As I mentioned, this company has 3 other FB pages. All those pages give me the code EXCEPT for he one I need.
I have repeatedly messaged FB for help. No answer in 3 months.
I don’t know if this is about setting up a FB App or something similar?

That is quite unusual, I did not see something like that before. So it works for other pages but not with that one. Maybe some other users would have an idea.

You’re telling me! And if only FB were customer-centric enough to reply to multiple requests for help… 🙂
