Hi, Just wondering, a client has regular facebook posts and wants the same copy including pictures to appear on her xara page.
Is there a plugin that will do this automatically and if so, what about mobile version and length of page issue in xara?

behzed, I thought that was the whole point of Xara Cloud?
There is an XC SocialBee plug-in - https://socialbee.io as well. More, https://docs.xara.com/en/articles/53...etting-started.
In the end, all done with 'Share > Share on social media'.

Thank you Acorn, but neither I am interested in purchasing xara+ or my client paying montly for the socialBee plugin.
Am I wrong to assume that what you referring is for the cloud and not xara program for creating websites?
Now that we are on the subject, I know that xara pages do not enlarge vertically as content is added, has this been resolved in xara+ ?
Also do you know of a xara+ website that showcases the plugin that you mentioned?
behzad, I didn't mention Xara+, Xara Cloud is free as is the SocialBee plug-in. I don't think you need to pay for its limited offering, just enough to work.: https://docs.xara.com/en/articles/53...etting-started. Do advise if there is no free plug-in so Xara can run with it.

Thanks Acorn.
The SocialBee is for posting to social websites like Facebook, Instagram ect. by using Xara Cloud to create the post.
Behzad, what I think the client wants is for Facebook posts to show up on their website page. Is this correct?
Ray
Yes Ray. Correct. So really SocialBee is not useful to me.
behzad, have you looked at https://developers.facebook.com/docs...s/page-plugin/.
Your OP mentioned "same copy" rather than 'show', which is where it got confusing.

Take a look at the following posts that talks about adding facebook code to a page:

Anything from Facebook has been a royal PIA for myself. Sometimes on Safari browsers it does not come up. I spent so much time messing with it I’ve convinced my folks that a Facebook icon with a link to their page is sufficient.
Also I’ve recommended that if I do place Facebook posts and pics, people will click on it and leave your site. Granted this is a weak argument but I’m finding that icons for all social media is clean and less cluttered.
Following along with what Bill said, if a browser has a Duckduckgo plugin it will block Facebook place holders so that Facebook can not track visitors to websites.

Thank you gang. I also came across this link, will give it a try.

As always what a wonderful team. I have slowed down in web and design development. Some of you may recall me taking a break after few years of hardship being a caretaker of my parents. I will hopefully return fully invested one day to my business and xara but for now I do like to keep connected.
take care my friend, these things make us all stronger ;)
