baekelandt CreditAttribution: baekelandt commentedHello,
I implemented the new FB Page Plugin that will replace the Like Box.
I am working on a patch, or should I create a new branch (7.x-2.x) or create a new project instead?
Greetings Edward

That is excellent! I think a new branch will be more appropriate. Would you want me to add you as a maintainer of the project?
Best,
David
Comment #3
baekelandt CreditAttribution: baekelandt commentedYes, you can add me as co-maintainer for the project.

drozas CreditAttribution: drozas as a volunteer commentedGreat Edward!
I have just given you full permissions on the project.
Thank you so much for this! I was planning to take a look at it, but I really couldn't find the time. I am really happy you are interested in collaborating ;-)
If I can be of any help, do not hesitate to let me know!
Best,
David

baekelandt CreditAttribution: baekelandt commentedYesterday I created the new 7.x-2.x branch and implemented the new FB Page Plugin. I also made a dev release so everyone can test and use it.
(For some reason I was not able to submit a new post here, so I post it now)
Greetings,
Edward

silkogelman CreditAttribution: silkogelman commentedI did a quick install of the 2.x branch.
So far it seems to work perfectly and exactly like with the like box plugin: configuration works the same, output seems to work with the new Facebook Page Plugin script.
(I have NOT tested the module code)
about configuration:
Is that minimum width of 280px a requirement from Facebook?
also, shouldn't this new module be called fb_pageplugin ? :)

baekelandt CreditAttribution: baekelandt as a volunteer and at Duo commented@silkogeman thanks for testing the new version and providing us with your feedback!
The minimum and maximum pixel width are indeed requirements from Facebook. (See: Page Plugin documentation )
