In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Using albums from facebook business pageHi shanegranite,
Yes, all that should work. You can follow instructions in the plugin to import images from a public page, and there is no limitation to how many photos you can import. If you have issues, let me know.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Only importing 24 photo per albumHi proagency999,
Can you send me the Facebook page, album, and FB app version you are using? I’ll try to reproduce. Maybe Facebook changed something in their API. Thanks!

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Number of images to showHi loloandohn,
Glad you like the plugin! To answer your question, you add the limit=6 to the shortcode, not your stylesheet.
Example:
[fb_album id=”123456789″ limit=”6″ order=”asc”]For the lightbox, I use a jQuery plugin called light gallery. You can find it here:

Hope that helps!

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] High quality thumbnailsYes, Facebook supplies a list of image sizes via their Graph API. My plugin uses the photo that best represents the size being used. By default the height and width of the thumbnail is 130px by 130px, so a function is used to determine which image is closest to that size and uses it. This is done for performance reasons. If you know CSS, you can play around with this and get a bigger, higher quality image that you can shrink down. To do this, use the height and widget attribute in the shortcode:
[fb_album width=900 height=900 … ]
Then you can use background-size and width/height in your CSS to get the thumbnail to the size you like.
I’ll look into this issue more in the newest version I’m working on now and put in a shortcode option to use lower quality thumbnails for better performance and higher quality thumbnails for better look.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] High quality thumbnailsHmmmmm, that is strange. I just did a test on my site and removing wp_photos=”true” used the photos from Facebook rather than WordPress. You can try unchecking checkbox and resyncing the album and if that does not work, try deleting the album and reimport it. Be sure to uncheck “Import images to WordPress media library?” so photos are not sideloaded into WordPress at all.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Display a covering photo of an albumHi ngrhd,
There is a plan in a future release (which I’m currently working on) to support different layouts of albums. Currently, this is the only layout the plugin has. If you have coding chops, you can take a look at the function that creates the shortcode and build a new layout from the data.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] High quality thumbnailsHi ngrhd,
If you remove wp_photos=”true” it will reference Facebook photo rather than photo saved to WordPress.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Pulls low res photos, sync issuesHi MS416,
Sorry you are having issues. Can you send me the Facebook page and album you are trying to import so I can take a look at why it may not be pulling all the photos? Also, you can choose not to import the photos directly into WordPress, which may be why you are seeing low res photos, though that’s never been reported before. If you remove the wp_photos attribute in the fb_album shortcode, the photos will use the ones linked directly to Facebook. Hope that helps.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] How to remove the album titleHi Pucedig,
You can add width=250 height=250 (as an example) to the shortcode to change the height/width of the thumbnails. By default it’s 130×130. Hope that helps.
Thx,

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Display pictures Grid in the center of the page.Hi Ravi,
Yup, that is a known bug that I need to fix. Also the auto sync is a feature I have not implemented yet since it requires me to rework the plugin a bit. Both are on my todo list. Thx.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Display pictures Grid in the center of the page.You can try something like
.fbps-album { text-align: center; }That will center the album content.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] How to remove the album titleHi pucedig,
Thanks! Currently I don’t have a way in the shortcode to include/not include the title, but I can add that in in the next update.
For now, you can simply hide the title with CSS like this:
.fbps-album h3 { display: none; }I’ll try to get an update out soon. Probably something like
title=falsein the shortcode. I’ll let you know when that is available.-Mike

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] I see double photos after the sync.Hi Ravi,
This seems to be some weird issue with your theme or another plugin conflicting with FB Photo Sync. That second image you see should be set to display: none. It is there for use in the overlay. You can easily fix this issue by adding this bit of code to your stylesheet:
.fbps-photo .tc-smart-loaded { display: none; }Hope that helps!
