Looking for Facebook WordPress Plugins? Facebook is one the biggest social networking sites and most of the users update their account regularly and it is a good medium to share stuff with friends. So installing a Facebook plug-in to your WordPress blog enables your users to easily share the posts. Herein are 6 cool WordPress plugins for Facebook.
Facebook WordPress Plugins
1. Add to Facebook
Once you install this plugin on your WordPress blog, you can see a footer link at the bottom of each blog post. By clicking on this link, user can add the current post to their Facebook mini-Feed. You can choose either a text link “Share on Facebook” or a Facebook button or both can be displayed at the bottom of the post. By clicking on the link, the user can sign in to the Facebook account it he is not already logged in and the post will be automatically added to his Mini-Feed.
2. Facebook Comments
This plug-in will import all the comments that are written on Facebook to your blog to the exact post such that you can see all the comments that are been made for a particular post directly in your WordPress blog. By this way you will not miss a single comment made on your post and it automatically updates the comments. (Edit: Plugin is not working for some people and pending update by author)
3. Facebook Dashboard Widget
This WordPress plug-in for Facebook allows you to see all the updates from your friends and allows you to know what your friends are doing. This is a dashboard widget that allows you to go side by side with your friends on Facebook and your WordPress blog. Using this widget you can know the updates from your Facebook friends even if the Facebook site is blocked.
4. WP-FBConnect
This plug-in will add Facebook functionality to your WordPress blog using the Facebook Connect APIs. You have to link WordPress and your Facebook account, and once they are linked you need not have to sign in again. You can publish the comments on your blog through the newsfeed and Facebook avatars will be displayed in the comments field.
5. Gigya
All the features in this plugins are fully configurable by the WordPress administration panel. By installing this plug-in to your WordPress blog, you can have a secure signup and login for users in your site. You can update your states on various social networking sites at once and also invite all your friends on various networks to visit and join in your blog site.
6. Facebook Photos plug-in
This plug-in allows you to add photos to the posts directly from the Facebook. All that you have to do is install and activate the plug-in and link your Facebook account with the WordPress blog. After that when you edit a new post in WordPress, a new Facebook icon in the add media section will be present – by clicking on the icon you can see the photos that you have uploaded to your Facebook account. You can then insert the photos to the post as small, medium and large size and can also align the image position.

Thanks for this Facebook WordPress Plugin roundup. More and more want to integrate their networks and these can help with that.
Wow. These look great. Can’t wait to check ‘em out. Thanks for sharing. It still feels like “Deadwood” out here but it’s getting easier.
Thanks for sharing them! These are just the things I need! Can’t wait to give them all a try. Thanks again!
Hey there – have you actually *used* these plugins? The “Facebook Comments” plugin hasn’t been updated since March 2009, and even then it didn’t work (the author had a hard time keeping up with changes to Facebook’s Comment structure).
At this point it’s totally non-functional, which even a cursory glance at the plugin’s message board on WordPress.org would have told you.
Or did you figure out a way to get this plugin to work? If so, please post *that*!
Ditto to @Ethan Prater – I installed “Facebook Comments” over the weekend, and it’s a total non-functioning plugin. The author also commented in his comment thread, that he’d may update it when he finds time.
Thanks for your feedback. I have put a notice on the plugin in the post.
Thanks for sharing this great article.
fotobook is yet another beautiful wp plugins for adding your facebook album to your blog
thanks your share
Wow!This is a very useful list. Thanks for sharing it. I’ll test some of the listed plugins… :)
Is there any plugin that can post automatically from blog to facebook? *cross posting* thx
Good timing to read this, just posted about this on another site I was reading: http://nowsci.com/wordpress2facebook/
It even puts the post picture into the wall, but does require a computer running.
yes exactly same question -is there a plugin that will allow to push wordpress posts into facebook automatically? (found one for twitter but dont seem to be able to find a facebook one…)
Great list – thanks!
Same question, again…
“is there a plugin that will allow to push wordpress posts into facebook automatically?”
WP to Twitter automatically generates a tweet for each WP post – and does so easily and reliably.
The same for Facebook, with the necessary adjustments, would be great.
Does it exist?
Thanks again,
MN
there is an app in facebook. Networked Blogs… it might be what you are looking for…
Nice list, thanks for sharing however I think you need to update the list as there are lot of useful plugins available now.
Does someone know how to bring comments from facebook to the blog or pages on me website?
best regards
