Facebook Photo Fetcher

Allows you to automatically create WordPress photo galleries from any Facebook album you can access. Simple to use and highly customizable.

1.3.0 (2012-04-21)

  • Apparently, the previous lightbox implementation included with this plugin was not GPL-compatible (leading to its removal from the repository). This update uses a different lightbox that should satisfy WP.org. NOTE that if you update, you will need to re-fetch all of your albums so that their code will be updated to use new lightbox. You can do this quickly via the "Re-Fetch All Albums In Pages" and "Re-Fetch All Albums In Posts" admin panel buttons.
