Facebook Member WordPress Plugin – Find proper URL

January 25, 2012
By @NetCrunched

Facebook Members is a WordPres Social Plugin that enables Facebook Page owners to attract and gain Likes from their own website. It uses Facebook Like Box.

See how many users already like this page, and which of their friends like it too. Read recent posts from the page Like the page with one click, without needing to visit the page. Get more visitors and more traffic to your site by getting more Facebook Fans.

I mainly receive a request on what value to put for “Facebook Page Name“? Please find here below some points:

FB Facebook Member WordPress Plugin   Find proper URL

Choose whatever is after http://www.facebook.com/…. (Please follow below steps to verify your FB page URL).

Step 1) If you got Facebook PageName then just put the same. i.e. “NetCrunched” or “WordPress“..

NetCrunched.FB .Page  Facebook Member WordPress Plugin   Find proper URL

Step 2) Else put complete URL as mentioned below:

Facebook.longURL Facebook Member WordPress Plugin   Find proper URL

Step 3) Please do not put #! as a Facebook page name if you find one.

Step 4) Make sure your Facebook page doesn’t have any restrictions. (of course you can set it if you need icon smile Facebook Member WordPress Plugin   Find proper URL )

FB.restriction Facebook Member WordPress Plugin   Find proper URL

I hope this helps.

    Hi, pasting /groups/143347932368063 into the page name field results in “Could not retrieve ID for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in.” being displayed on my WordPress site. Any ideas?

      GDay ebwilliams, Facebook Members plugin doesn’t support facebook groups. It’s only available for facebook pages. 

      • Phiip Yim

        Mmm I am pointing to a member page and I get the same error message

        • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

          Could you please share your FB page URL? I would like to debug it at my end.

    G’day Mate,

    The WP Plugin for the twitter or facebook plugin does not have the same content as the downloads on your pages. Not sure which does not match I think twitter as once I took from your sight versus WP Plugin it worked out of the box.

    • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

      Sorry but I didn’t get your question. Could you please explain in detail?

      • Phiip Yim

        Ooh I downloaded plugin from WordPress Plugin directory. This was different than the files I downloaded from your website. Please double check they are in sync i.e., the latest versions are in both locations.

        Great Plugin.
         

        • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

          Thanks Phiip. Try downloading current version from WordPress repository only. Btw, from which page have you downloaded plugin before?

  • Daniele

    Hi! Pasting ‘danielenicolidotcom’ into the page name field results in “Could not retrieve I…” Can you help me?

    • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

      GDay Daniele, Could you please share your FB page URL? I would like to recreate it locally.

  • Audra Marie

    Howdy, I can’t seem to get this to work. The title and the plugin credit show, but not the like box. Here’s my facebook page url: http://www.facebook.com/audramsilva and my website: http://www.audrasilva.com/

    • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

      GDay Audra Marie, It should work by putting only “audramsilva”. I don’t see any issue. You may want to check your page’s privacy policy. It should be public.

      • Audra Marie

        Well, bummer. It doesn’t seem to want to show the box. :( Something must be interfering with it. Thanks for your help.

        • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

          Hmm. I just tried it on my blog and it’s working perfectly fine. In mean time, i’ve updated this page with some detailed info. You may want to take a look at this.

      GDay DanieleBuccheri. I’ve just tried with BuccheriVideography and it worked for me. Could you please try putting only BuccheriVideography?

  • Lovebuky

    Thank you. Your pluggin worked for my website http://www.imprisonedshow.com. God bless you.

    • http://netcrunched.com/ NetCrunched

      Thank you.

  • Amine

    Love the widget, I tried several plugins and yours is definitely the best. 

    The sad thing is that I won’t be able to use it, since I need it to work with the Dynamic Widget plugin. It didn’t recognize the Widget ID. 

    Hope this will be fixed in the future, and then I’ll definitely make the switch.

  • Cyndi C.

    Works better than any I’ve tried! lovely! (see http://www.rivertunes.net, http://www.cyndicravenmusic.com) .. BUT I may have to bail on it unless there’s a way to put your sidebar widget on more than one sidebar. I’m using more than one layout… different sidebars have different content. One I install on sidebar of one layout, it disappears from my widgets, so that I can’t use a 2nd time. Any help here? Thanks!
