In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Number of images to showHi Gusta,
I have updated the plugin. New version 0.5.8 has the new attribute limit you can add to the shortcode. Example, limit=6 will show only 6 photos. You can use along with the order attribute (order=”asc” or order=”desc”, desc is default). Let me know how this works for you.
Thx!

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Number of images to showHi Gusta,
There isn’t a way to set a max limit on the images displayed; the plugin loads all the images in a gallery. For performance, I use lazy load, so it doesn’t load all the images on load all at once, but loads them as they come into view. If you want to omit some images from the gallery, you can use the ignore attribute and include the ID(s) of the image(s) you want to ignore in a comma separated list. Example: ignore=”326020210891369,320328328127224″.
I could see this as an interesting addition to the plugin though. Something like displaying 6 of the latest images in a sidebar or something to that effect. I can add this in in the next release.
Thx,

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Thumbnail SizeHi DerMoert,
Yes, this part wasn’t very well documented, sorry about that… If you pass width and height within the shortcode, it will find the closest thumbnail that matches and use that. Hope that helps.
ex:
[fb_album width=”130″ height=”130″ etc]Mike

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] FB Photo SyncTry removing the API key again, click save, and be sure to follow the instructions step by step. Make sure the URL you add to your FB App is exactly as the plugin asks for it.

I don’t really want to provide my email address on this forum, but will help you out here in the comments. I also like having it here since others that are having issues can find this conversation, which could help them.
It sounds like you don’t have the plugin setup yet. If you added the api code from your FB app, you should see a button that asks you to login to Facebook. Once you login, you will see the area to place the URL for your Facebook page and search albums. Hope that helps.

Seems the query string at the end (?ref=bookmarks) is screwing up the search. I’ll have to fix that. Try just putting https://www.facebook.com/Wilde-Bespoke-Joinery-215941178505887 in the field and clicking Find Albums. That worked for me. Let me know if that works for you.

Can you provide a link to the Facebook page you are trying to get albums from?

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Grey ThumbnailsOkay, make sure in the “Import” tab that you added the App ID from the FB app you created and that you are also logged in in that tab.

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Grey ThumbnailsHi winterstreet,
At first glance it looks like you didn’t have the plugin import the images into WordPress. I’ve discovered that Facebook periodically expires the direct URLs to the photos in the album, so the best option is to choose the option to download the images directly into WordPress. Note that the shortcode changes slightly. To do this option, check the box to import to WordPress, click sync, and then copy the shortcode.
If you don’t want to do that, you can also just click the ‘sync’ link and the plugin will update the URLs and that should work as well, but again, Facebook periodically changes the URLs to the image. Let me know if that works for you.
Thanks!

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Facebook Page IDHi Manu,
To get personal albums, you need to login as that user and click the “Show Albums” under “Import Your Personal Facebook Albums”. The “Enter Facebook Page ID” text field is only for public pages, not personal Facebook pages. Hope that makes sense.
Take care,

In reply to: [FB Photo Sync] Sync not updating albums properlyHi cynmar,
Confirmed that the plugin does not currently delete photos removed from the albums, but I’m not seeing it not picking up new photos. The only bug with not picking up new photos I am seeing is that the photo count does not updated after sync, however, if you refresh the page it will update. I will look into getting fixes for this in the next version of the plugin. In the mean time, deleting and re-importing an album will fix all syncing issues (though I understand that is a pain). I will update this ticket once the new version of the plugin with the fix is in place.
Thanks for reporting!
Mike
