Adding Facebook post to personal website

Caben · 23-07-2013 1:19pm #1

Hi All,

Not sure if this is in the right location and please feel free to move if it is.

I am looking to add the last 3 or so posts from a Business Facebook feed (mine) to my website. It is a HTML site with no plugins

If anybody has tried this they will understand the following. I have AppID, UserID, AppSecret and Access Token done.

I am using a PHP script and I can see it is nearly working but not quite. The script is live at www.smartphonetraining.ie/test.php

If anyone could help fix this I would be very greatful. This is a copy of the script being used:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
</head>

<body>

<?php

$FBid = '190722794369142';

//Get the contents of a Facebook page
$FBpage = file_get_contents('https://graph.facebook.com/190722794369142/feed?limit=100&access_token=CAACldyp0uI0BAFUYix4ijfVJtIUUbSc2xgZBKmKWVgX5ZAN75TpbGdqsb5qAFnbGavlCaj7xZAau9eaZC9dNmmX8Sf8j6IkaOKyrdVoIC2KwwfHZAGAtQqTt9xsetWZAE3GvMvspad0In86KDJWbDRanhU5VFUjokZD');

//Interpret data with JSON
$FBdata = json_decode($FBpage);
//Set the page name or ID

//Ttime stamp function
function timeSince($original) {
// Array of time period
$chunks = array(
array(60 * 60 * 24 * 365 , 'year'),
array(60 * 60 * 24 * 30 , 'month'),
array(60 * 60 * 24 * 7, 'week'),
array(60 * 60 * 24 , 'day'),
array(60 * 60 , 'hour'),
array(60 , 'minute'),
);

// Current time
$today = time();
$since = $today - $original;

// $j saves performing the count function each time around the loop
for ($i = 0, $j = count($chunks); $i < $j; $i++) {

$seconds = $chunks[$i][0];
$name = $chunks[$i][1];

// finding the biggest chunk (if the chunk fits, break)
if (($count = floor($since / $seconds)) != 0) {
break;
}
}

$print = ($count == 1) ? '1 '.$name : "$count {$name}s";

if ($i + 1 < $j) {
// now getting the second item
$seconds2 = $chunks[$i + 1][0];
$name2 = $chunks[$i + 1][1];

// add second item if it's greater than 0
if (($count2 = floor(($since - ($seconds * $count)) / $seconds2)) != 0) {
$print .= ($count2 == 1) ? ', 1 '.$name2 : ", $count2 {$name2}s";
}
}
return $print;
}
