Automatic Facebook Posting

Automatic Facebook Posting
By
Mar 22, 2021

If you want to tell your social media followers about every new listing you add, WSN can do that. At Admin -> Settings -> Social you'll find an option for automatic facebook posts. These posts will go to a facebook page you own, every time a listing is approved.

First, you'll need to set up a facebook app if you haven't already done that for the Facebook Connect login option. To create an app, go to https://developers.facebook.com/apps/ . The app display name and namespace can be whatever you want, but you must ensure to enter the domain your WSN is installed on in the app domains box.

[The rest of this article is still under construction as the feature is being developed and tested. Please come back in a few days.]
Next, in the graph explorer at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/ you need to select your app and your page and add the permissions pages_read_engagement and pages_manage_posts.

Then click "Generate Access Token" and follow the prompts. Copy the token it gives you after that. Paste into WSN at Admin -> Settings -> Social -> Auto-Facebook -> Access Token.

To find your facebook page id, go to your page and click About in the left column. Scroll down to find your Page ID below More Info. Enter that at Admin -> Settings -> Social -> Auto-Facebook -> Page ID.
