    No, it doesn’t yet display any images. That’s on my agenda for the next version.

    Hello bonnerl,

    Great plugin – I was wondering if there is a way to get just the content of the feed without any formatting at all… I am creating a newsticker on our site and I want to pull in the last two FB updates and put it in my scrolling list of items (which include feeds from other sources).

    Ideally, I’d like to dump each FB status into a string so I can limit the characters displayed and wrap that string in my own css tags.

    Thanks,
    rich!

    It would be possible, but at this time the plugin doesn’t do that.

    You could however easily call fb_feed( $feed_id, array('echo' => false, 'maxitems => 2) ) which would return a string containing the last two status items. Which would return something like,

    <div class='fb-feed-item fb-item-0' id='fb-feed-page_id_post_id'>
    	<p class='descript'>A plain old status about life.</p>
    	<p class='fb-date'><a href='http://www.facebook.com/page_id/posts/post_id' target='_blank' class='quiet' title='See this post on Facebook'>Nov 1st 12:00pm &bull;  Comment</a></p>
    </div>
    <div class='fb-feed-item fb-item-1' id='fb-feed-page_id_post_id'>
    	<p class='message'>A status with a link about a subject I like.</p>
    	<blockquote>
    		<p>
    			<a href='http://www.some-domain.com/some-page.html' class='the_link'>Some Cool Link</a>
    			<span class='descript'>An excerpt from the page the link is for.</span>
    		</p>
    	</blockquote>
    	<p class='fb-date'><a href='http://www.facebook.com/page_id/posts/post_id' target='_blank' class='quiet' title='See this post on Facebook'>Nov 1st 12:00pm &bull;  Comment</a></p>
    </div>
