Add Facebook Feed

NOTE: Currently doesn't work on the people.hamilton.edu domain

  1. Click on an Add Content button and select the Custom Content module.
  2. Insert the following code (Include < and at the beginning of the code and remove the spaces in < / iframe>):
    iframe allowtransparency="true" src="http://www.facebook.com/connect/connect.php?id=###############&connections=0&stream=1" style="border: none; width: 300px; height: 380px;" frameborder="1" scrolling="no"> < / iframe>
  3. Insert your Facebook page's 10 or 15-digit id in place of the 15 # symbols. Your page's id is normally at the end of your page's URL. (You will need another tab/window to get to the Facebook page) If not, follow these instructions:
    1. On your page, right click and select view page source.
    2. In the Source Code, search (Control + F on Windows, Cmd + F on Mac) for profile_id=.
    3. Following that portion of the code is a 10 or 15-digit id. Insert that in place of the 15 # symbols.
  4. Click save.
