Description
If you would like to increase the exposure of your blog WordPress Connect
it the perfect plugin for you. It comes with a unique set of tools through
which you can reach the largest social networking community on the planet
that would engage and then share and discuss your content. It will enable
you to build up a fan base and to connect with a wider and a more relevant
audience. Now your blog readers with a Facebook account can post comments,
create discussions and like your posts and pages.
The plugin integrates Facebook Social plugins with WordPress. It provides
tools to add the Facebook Like Button and Facebook Comments automatically
to every post and page. Of course, the user has a full control over settings
such as width, font, color scheme, etc.
WordPress Connect also provides fully customizable WordPress Widgets for the
following Facebook Social Plugins
- Activity Widget
- Comments Widget
- Facepile Widget
- Like Box Widget
- Like Button Widget
- Live Stream Widget
- Login Widget
- Recommendation Widget
- Send Button Widget
The widgets can be added to your blog just as easy as any other WordPress
Widget, i.e. through the widgets page (under Appearance on your Dashboard).
Since 2.0, all WordPress Connect widgets are rendered in the XFBML mode (i.e
no iframes) to provide full functionality the iframe versions may lack.
A big addition since 2.0 is a simple yet powerful API
for plugin and theme developers who can now specify default settings for WordPress
Connect to reflect the needs of their plugin/theme. The API provides an easy
way to include any widget (such as the Like Button of Comments) anywhere in
the theme, e.g. to add the Like Button to the header or Comments to the
footer.
