Overview
The jQuery Facebook Gallery WP plugin allows you to show all your Facebook albums (images) on your website. Please note that this script will only work with Facebook pages that belong to businesses or organization or pages that are registered as fan pages. It will NOT work with personal Facebook profiles. Also, please make sure that the Facebook page you want to use has no active age restrictions since these restrictions require authentication and access tokens for each user. This script is a pure javascript/jQuery solution and does not require a PHP server.
This is the WordPress version of the “jQuery Facebook Gallery” script. If you are looking for the standalone version, please click here.
If you like this plugin, please take the time to rate it. Thank you!
Individual Shortcode for Each Gallery
You can create an unlimited number of Galleries, each utilizing a different Facebook profile. Each Gallery will be assigned an unique Shortcode that you can embed in your page.

Full Admin Panel for All Settings
The plugin provides you with an extensive admin panel to control all of the 160 different settings the gallery allows for.
Included CSS Editor
The plugin / gallery comes with its own CSS styles, but sometimes, these don’t exactly match your theme or your theme’s CSS is overriding some of the plugin styles. If that’s the case, the plugin provides you with an included CSS Editor to enter your own CSS styles.
Included JS Editor
While the plugin / gallery comes with three included Lightbox Extensions (Fancybox, ColorBox and PrettyPhoto) and a Tooltip Extension (qTip2), you can use your own Lightbox / Tooltip Extensions. The gallery assigns specific class names to all items that contain lightbox or tooltip content (you can even assign a custom Class Name), which you can target when you call your own Extensions. In order to do so, the plugin also provides an internal JS Editor where you can enter your code to initialize your Lightbox / Tooltip solutions.
