WordPress Tip: How To Post to Facebook Pages Instead of Profile Pages

Brian, I was wanting to know how to do this …. and you've just saved me quite a bit of time. Many thanks, Will

or you can use the networkedblogs application inside facebook and let it do all the work from rss (works for pages too)

I'm using Wordbook – seems to work fine with pages..

You can also use TwitterFeed.com or Hootsuite.com. I am now using Hootsuite for this because it is a great app. You can refer to my post on how to set this up. Its pretty easy.

The coolest thing about WordBooker is when your friends post comments on your status, it feeds back to your WordPress as a comment…

However, after I installed Disqus this neat feature isn't working anymore – I tried importing the comments back from FB but it isn't working. I decide to stick with Disqus because it simply kicks ass.

Anyone have any idea?

Hi Brian,
I have an exclusive womans fashion label and am trying to direct my posts of my blog to my fan page. Thanks for your blog, however I got a little stuck and cant see the Twitter Log in options? Also I tried to add he #fb before I published the blog and when i did it sent my blog haywire with all this code before it. It also didnt post to my Twitter.

Do you have any other thoughts and suggestions to help me?

Thanks

Hi, I no longer use the #fb method to post to my fan page. I am now using Hootsuite.com to do it. It give me more flexibility and because it integrates with Ping.FM I can broadcast my blog posts all over my social media sites (more than 30 in total). You can see details in this newer post here: http://brianwong.com/blog/howto-hootsuite-pingfm-wordpress-socialmedia/

I’ve try sooo many time to add this applicatiob to my fan page. But i think i was unsuccessful because I get this message when I want to do step 2 of “setting up” (when i choosed Fan pages tab) :

“You must add this application to one of your pages before you can use it.”

Am I missing something?

Thanks.

New Facebook rules means you need to add the application as a tab in your fan page as well as allow it permission to post to your pages.

Thanx for the tips. It worked like a charm.

Hi Brian,
I’m fighting with a problem- maybe you can help: when I want to join a group – or write on the wall of a group in FB – and although I’m logged OUT of my PROFILE Page, my comments show up with my PROFILE instead of my FAN PAGE — how can I change this. Please note – I did not even “LIKE” my own FAN Page – especially to keep those 2 entities apart…

PS- thanks a lot for that TWITTER-connection tip – I’ve tried several others twitter-apps- but they don’t work!!

I don’t think you can comment on a group or wall of any other FB page as your fan page. It will always show up as your profile.

Great Article. We are planing for travel site for india. It
will help us to do Social Media Marketing. Thanx.

now its over not working yet :(

Genius! Thanks Brian. The schematic illustration is the icing on the cake. Can you make the same type of instructions for the clock on my VCR?

Thank you for the excellent advise.. cheers

I would like to add another way of doing this. When on your Facebook Page, not profile, go to the notes app, and then click Page’s Notes. From here you can import any blog by rss feed, and all posts will be morphed into a Facebook Note, and therefore posted on the page’s Wall. You can also block people from commenting on facebook, forcing them to comment on your blog site. Then you just need to connect your Facebook Page with twitter using the new Facebook Pages Twitter Connect http://facebook.com/twitter

Ciao!

Hi,

Is this still the only solution to do this? It’s somewhat cumbersome…

Thanks for a great tip. This works just fine, however there is a slightly faster way of doing this as well. You can import your Word Press blog’s RSS feed into your Facebook Notes page. This will operation also publish them to your Facebook Wall. All you have to do is edit your Notes import settings and add your blog feed there.

Thanks to all, some fantastic tips here to link everything and import my blog in to facebook.

Thanks Brian, this was all good except for facebook will not grant access to my fan page. I’ve been looking for the best way to post to both fb and twitter when I publish my post, and if I can get the fan page to work this will be perfect. Appreciate the advice.

Jameson – try the instruction on this post: http://brianwong.com/blog/howto-hootsuite-pingfm-wordpress-socialmedia/
You should be able to post to Twitter and Facebook page directly using Ping.FM and as a bonus, you can post to ALL your other social media profiles that you register on Ping.FM

Brian thanks for your tips. I’m wading my way through to work out which one or variety of options I need to implement. Was originally looking for how to automate the follow feature and welcome bit for Twitter. LOL there’s so much more!

Yeah – its a never ending process :)

Is there any other way to post to fb fan page other than the one mentined above?
I am aksing this because i dont use wordpress for hosting my blog. It is written in .net and hence would need a plugin something like above to be developed.

Hi there,
I found a simple Facebook App to auto your WordPress posts to show in your Facebook Fan Pages in just few steps of setting up.

Check this out http://www.pagepressapp.com/

Enjoy :)

I have yet to set it up but there is a new service called ‘If This Then That’ or http://ifttt.com where you can setup tasks which will do just this :) It’s a pretty slick new service.
