Plugin Settings
The Mongoose Page Plugin uses a shortcode to insert the page feed. You set your settings within the shortcode.
[facebook-page-plugin setting=“value“]
Available settings:
href (URL path that comes after facebook.com/)
width (number, in pixels, between 180 and 500, default 340)
height (number, in pixels, minimum 70, default 500)
cover (true/false, show page cover photo, default true)
facepile (true/false, show facepile, default true)

Deprecated Settings *
posts (true/false) – posts has been replaced by tabs as of 1.4.0. There is a fallback in place to convert it to tabs
Example: [facebook-page-plugin href="facebook" width="300" height="500" cover="true" facepile="true" tabs="timeline" adapt="true"]
This will display a Facebook page feed that loads in the page facebook.com/facebook
that is 300px wide but adapts to it’s container, 500px high, displaying the page’s cover photo, facepile and recent posts in the same language as the site. See the screenshots tab for a demonstration of how it will appear

SOS
-
The plugin doesn’t load properly
-
The most common causes of the plugin not displaying are an ad blocker, audience restrictions or browser privacy settings.
* Disable or whitelist any ad blocking browser extension
* Disable any audience restrictions in your page settings on Facebook.
* Disable any antivirus software on your device.
* If using Safari, disable Hide IP From Tracker. -
The plugin loads but doesn’t show the facepile or posts
-
The default height of the plugin is only tall enough to display the main page header. Increase the height until you can see the additional features you want to display.
-
Where is the shortcode generator?
-
As of version 1.9.0, the shortcode generator has moved to Settings > Mongoose Page Plugin > Shortcode Generator
-
Is there a Gutenberg block?
-
Not yet, but it is on our roadmap.
