Publish and add to Facebook?

Wondering if anyone has seen a plugin that notifies Facebook when an article is published?

Something similar to the Twitter plugins mem_twitter and arc_twitter, which ping Twitter when an article is published.

I’d love to have this, too. Though I can’t make any sense of PHP I think this is this feature’s tech doc.

Re: Publish and add to Facebook?

You can use the RSS Graffiti application
It’s like a RSS reader, but it post it in your profile page and it will be shown on the “live stream” so your friends will see it.
It also got some customize features in it.
I’m using it and it works good ;)
ofcourse you need to have a RSS/ATOM page link of your site
(or whatever site you want to publish content from on facebook)

But yea I will also like a nice plugin that will let us use cool facebook-connect features =)

It’s pretty easy to link your RSS feed to your Facebook wall, but that basically copies your article excerpt into a note, and stores it on Facebook. I don’t like that myself, but it’s the easiest solution and it might work for someone.

Re: Publish and add to Facebook?

Just wondering what you facebook users currently use to post your blog articles to Facebook? It seems RSS Graffiti has shut down and Facebook has killed their RSS integration too.

I’m looking to replace a WP installation with a txp-based version, but this is something they use in/with WP that I’ve not implemented before. I’m not a Facebook user myself, so I’m not aware of the possibilities from the Facebook end of things…

You can use twitterfeed to post entries of your RSS-Feed to your FB page.
