Facebook Posts Integration: setup and help

1. Upload the Facebook Posts Integration ZIP through Modules > Module Manager.
2. Open Configure.
3. Enter Page Access Token, Page ID and Page Name.
4. Choose a real Display hook supported by your theme, then save.
5. Use Force sync now, then open the chosen storefront area. Posts link to the connected Page.

Requires PrestaShop 1.6 or later and PHP 7.1 or later.

The module requests https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/PAGE_ID/posts. It asks for message, dates, full picture, permalink, shares, reaction/comment summaries, attachments, status type and publication data. It renders one Page feed at a time.

The storefront follow action opens Facebook; reactions and comments happen there, not inside PrestaShop.

Placement

Only the selected standard hook renders the feed. Your theme must call that hook. You can use the homepage for the initial test, then move it to a footer or column hook supported by your theme.

Layout

For a homepage grid, start with six posts, three desktop columns, one mobile column, 16px gap and 8px radius. For a compact footer slider, choose displayFooterBefore and slider, then review scrolling and mobile width.

Visible content

Multi-image posts can show a compact grid using up to four preview images. Items without a message or full_picture are skipped by the fetcher, so the displayed count can be lower than requested.

Cache and slider

Feed snapshots are stored in the database for each shop and connected Page. Storefront visits display the saved snapshot without requesting Meta. Scheduled refreshes or synchronization retrieve new posts; a failed refresh keeps the previous snapshot.

Use Force sync now to request fresh posts. A failed synchronization retains the previous snapshot; read the displayed feed status. Lazy loading uses IntersectionObserver with immediate loading when unavailable.

The configuration can show a publishing section when MPR Blog Revolution is available. Feed reading and publishing are separate operations. Leave Enable Auto-Publish off, its installed default, until you deliberately want new published blog content to create remote posts.

Caption Template defaults to:

{title}

{excerpt}

Read more: {url}

You can also use {shop_name}. For example, change the last part to Read the article: {url} and add {shop_name} on another line.

Automatic publishing reacts to object add/update hooks with published status 1 and configured credentials. The Facebook publisher supports text, link or one-photo posts. The blog path supplies a link, so the publisher normally chooses a link post even when a featured image exists.

Manual buttons in the recent blog-post panel also create real remote content. Check the selected post, account and caption before using them. Publishing works only if the token has publishing permission for that Page.

Publishing attempts are recorded in shared queue/history data, with duplicate checks and records of unknown outcomes. This module attempts publication during the request. If the outcome is unknown or needs reconciliation, review the remote account and queue result before trying again to avoid duplicate posts.

The shared write policy can block publishing on a development/staging host or when the configured shop host is uncertain. Use the displayed result and PrestaShop logs to diagnose that block. There is no need to change publishing policy to test feed reading.

When the Facebook platform is enabled in Social Revolution (mprsocialrevolution), this module hides its own feed and stops its automatic publishing for Facebook. Installing Social Revolution alone does not trigger this change.

• Confirm the required credentials are saved, the feed switch is on and the selected hook executes in your theme.
• Synchronize the feed and open the chosen area. If nothing appears, read the feed status and PHP/API errors.
• Test grid or slider controls, mobile visibility, follow links and post permalinks. Shared-post filtering may leave fewer cards.
• If authentication fails, check the token, account ID, remote API version and permissions. Saving settings confirms local storage only. Use a numeric Page ID.
• If publishing is denied, check the employee's module access, account credentials, host-policy result, shared-package compatibility and previous attempt state. Do not repeatedly publish after an uncertain response.

Keep template overrides in your theme:

themes/your-theme/modules/mprfacebookpostsintegration/views/templates/hook/feed.tpl
themes/your-theme/modules/mprfacebookpostsintegration/views/templates/hook/post_item.tpl

Theme CSS can target .mprfb-section, .mprfb-title, .mprfb-grid, .mprfb-slider, .mprfb-item and .mprfb-follow-btn. Additional hooks include .mprfb-header, .mprfb-list, .mprfb-media, .mprfb-text and .mprfb-footer.

To pause output, turn off Enable module. Turn off Enable Auto-Publish separately to stop automatic publishing. Before uninstalling, retain credentials and back up any publication history you need. Uninstall removes the module's menu and settings, clears its cache and runs its schema cleanup. It does not delete posts already created on Facebook.
