Make your WordPress site social in a couple of clicks, powered by Facebook.

== Description ==

The Facebook plugin for WordPress adds Facebook social plugins to your WordPress site. Associate your WordPress site with a free Facebook application identifier to enable advanced features such as automatically sharing new posts to an author's Facebook timeline or your site's Facebook page. This plugin is developed by Facebook with extra support for popular plugins and themes.

= Features =

* [Open Graph protocol](http://ogp.me) markup optimizes your content for social sharing and rich story previews on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Mixi, and more.
* [Facebook Insights](http://www.facebook.com/insights) support for Facebook accounts associated with a Facebook application.
* Add [Like](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/), [send](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/send/), and [subscribe](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/subscribe/) buttons to every post to help your site's readers share content with friends or stay connected to future content shared by your site on Facebook.
* Enable the [Facebook Comments Box social plugin](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/) to encourage new comments from logged-in Facebook users and his or her Facebook friends. Comments associated with a post are sorted according to social signals including friend networks, most liked, or the most active discussion threads.
* [Recommendations Bar](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/recommendationsbar/) helps visitors discover additional content on your site by recommending posts and encouraging Like shares.
* [Recommendations Box](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/recommendations/) suggests related posts in a configurable widget.
* Mention Facebook friends and Facebook pages associated with a post.

= Shortcodes =

Add a [Like Button](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/) or a [Send Button](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/send/) using a shortcode inside your post or evaluated from within your theme. You may override site-level options with shortcode attributes defined on the social plugin's page.

* `[facebook_like_button]`
* `[facebook_send_button]`

The development [source code for this plugin is available on Facebook's GitHub account](https://github.com/facebook/wordpress). [Pull Requests](https://github.com/facebook/wordpress/pulls) and code discussion welcome.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I change the image that appears for my posts shared on Facebook? =

The plugin generates [Open Graph protocol](http://ogp.me/) markup for your site's webpages including an explicitly-specified image for posts with an associated [post thumbnail](http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails). Your plugin or theme may define additional images through the `fb_meta_tags` filter. If a post thumbnail image exists your additional image will be an alternate for stories shared through a pasted link. Unattended story summaries use the first defined image. [support sticky](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/customize-open-graph-protocol-for-your-site-or-network)

= How do I moderate comments and add reviewers? =

The [Comment Moderation Tool](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/comments) allows you to customize your Facebook application's moderators, blacklisted words, external logins, and more.

= Does Facebook Comments work with my existing WordPress comments? =

The [Comments Box social plugin](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/) is meant to replace the WordPress commenting system with a more social, client-side experience. We do not currently support synchronizing comments stored on Facebook with comments stored in your WordPress database.
