Hey BillHi,
It is actually possible to display posts from a personal profile it’s just a bit more complicated and isn’t as reliable as displaying posts from pages. It’s actually to do with the type of access token you use. In order to display posts from a personal profile you need a ‘User’ access token from Facebook. I put together directions on how to get one of these at the following link: http://smashballoon.com/custom-facebook-feed/docs/get-extended-facebook-user-access-token/.
Hope that helps. If you have any questions then just let me know.

Hi smashballoon!
Do you know if this solution still working for Perfil (personal) pages?
I got the token as you said in this 2 tuts:
https://smashballoon.com/custom-facebook-feed/access-token/
https://smashballoon.com/custom-facebook-feed/docs/get-extended-facebook-user-access-token/
And it’s not working in my WP blog.
I’m getting this error :
“
Due to Facebook’s privacy policy you’re not able to display posts from a personal profile, only from a public page or group.”
Can u help me please?
Hey magron,
If you submit a support request through our website and include your ‘System Info’ from the plugin’s ‘Support’ page, and also a link to the page where you’re using the [custom-facebook-feed] shortcode, then I can take a look for you.
