Embedding a Facebook Feed

Embed Facebook Feed

Summary: This guide provides a step-by-step overview of how to embed a live Facebook feed into your intranet site using the Text, Image, and Video module (or optionally the Expanding Text module). By following this process, you’ll create a dynamic, auto-updating section that displays your organization’s Facebook page activity directly on your intranet. This is ideal for increasing engagement and sharing external updates in a centralized location.

Features and Benefits:

Live Social Feed Integration: Embedding a live Facebook feed brings external social content directly into your intranet, keeping employees up to date with public announcements or community engagement.

Use of Flexible Modules: Works with multiple modules including Text, Image, and Video or Expanding Text, allowing flexibility in how and where the feed is displayed.

Customizable Display Dimensions: You can tailor the width and height of the embedded feed (e.g., 500 x 550 px) to match your page layout and optimize the viewing experience.

Iframe Code Embedding: Uses Facebook’s official iframe embed method, ensuring compatibility and real-time updates from your Facebook page.
