  • I want to have a wordpress blog that is completely private which requires login to view it, uses facebook to login, and only allows my facebook friends (even after login) to view the content.

    I’ve tried searching google and the plugins area, I can find plenty of things to interconnect with facebook, but nothing to make the blog private to facebook friends only.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks.

  • There is bunch of Facebook login plugin like

    http://wordpress.org/plugins/facebookall/

    http://wordpress.org/plugins/oa-social-login/

    And a lot more, just search “Facebook login

    But in my knowledge its not possible to limit only to your friends.

    What you could do, make post private with password, and give that password only to your Facebook friend, then you will have what you wanted, one way or another!

    FWIW, by reviewing the Facebook API (which I have no direct experience with) it does appear possible to manage site access with Facebook logins and to obtain a FrienList object. Based on this, I would say this sort of thing is possible if someone with decent coding skills wanted to make the effort.

    I’ve no knowledge if such a plugin exists or not. But it does appear to be a feasible concept.

    bcworkz, do you have a blog, or some method of direct contact?

    Contacting people outside of the forums is considered a no-no and is really discouraged here.

    If there’s a question please feel free to post it here.

    Looking to hire some coders to code a series of plugins for me. Looking for people well versed in wordpress, which after reviewing his activity he seems to be.

    WordPress forums seems to be the best place to find such coders otherwise I’ll end up with php coders that’ll either make poorly coded plugins due to lack of understanding of the wordpress plugin system; or coders that will need to spend a 6 months learning wordpress before being of any real use.
