How to add a Facebook Group Feed

by Jay Versluis

in PHP,Plugins

I’ve come acoss this the other day, comes in handy as Facebook Groups don’t have a generic RSS feed. Here’s how you can display what’s new in your favourite groups within your WordPress Site:

  1. Make sure you have your Facebook Group ID handy (it’s the last 11 or so numeric digits after the ‘groupid’ tag in the URL). Check Jason Silver’s excellent Yahoo! Pipe script:
  2. http://pipes.yahoo.com/jasonsilver/facebookgroup
  3. This will give you an option to embed as badge in various formats (WordPress, Blogger, PHP Script and many others).

Enjoy!
