Facebook Reviews ​

This guide will show you how to easily connect your Facebook Page to WP Social Ninja's Business Reviews feature. Once connected, you can pull in all your customer reviews to display on your website, building trust and social proof.

This process is very simple and uses the recommended "OAuth" method, which means you just need to log in to your Facebook account and give permission. There are no complicated developer keys needed.

Use Case: This is the first and most important step for displaying your Facebook Reviews. Once you connect your page, you can create a beautiful Business Reviews template to show off your 5-star ratings, helping to convince new customers that your business is trusted and legitimate.

How to Connect Your Facebook Page ​

Follow these simple steps to get your page connected in less than a minute.

Step 1: Go to Platforms ​

First, go to your WordPress dashboard. In the left-hand menu, click on WP Social Ninja, and then select the Platforms sub-menu. This is your main hub for connecting all your social accounts for feeds and business reviews.

Step 2: Choose Your Connection Method ​

On the "Platforms" page, find the Facebook row. On the right side, click the Settings icon button.

  • Next, it will ask you to grant permission for "WP Social Ninja" to access your information. Click the "Continue as..." button to proceed. This is a standard and safe process.
