Facebook Addon Qestions…

    I am considering using MaxGalleria and the Facebook addon. But I have a couple of questions:

    1. Does the Facebook addon download the selected photos into WordPress (along with the title/caption) or is it pulled from Facebook each time?

    2. I have over 30 Facebook albums with anywhere from 10 to 100 photos in each. Does the addon recognize Facebook albums and allow me to select all the photos in an album, or do I have to somehow select from a long list photos, with no indication of what album they are in?

    The client adds their photos to their facebook page as albums, and I need to display those same albums on the website. Will this be possible with this addon?

    Thanks for any help

    Cool, sounds good. Are we talking a couple days, or more like a month? As I mentioned, I have a client I’m investigating for, so I can’t wait too long…

    Right now it’s looking like more than a couple days. We’re looking into options today and tomorrow.

    If it’s a simple fix we’ll put it out right away. Otherwise it’ll be a bit more than that.

    Sounds reasonable. Is it possible for you to address the questions I had – are you planning on adding fixes/functions in those areas?

    digitalmoksha,

    Yes, the plugin allows you to download selected images from your Facebook account to the WordPress media library. I don’t think if makes a distinction between albums. You are able to view/select, page by page, all the images in your account.

    Alan, that’s cool. I couldn’t find any changelog or list of new features. What’s changed?

    In the plugin’s readme file it says “Updated to use Facebook API 5”.
