New feature in the WP Email-to-Facebook plugin

After a suggestion from one of the users of our plugin WP Email-to-Facebook for WordPress we have now added a new feature: two optional text fields to be added to each update.

The question from BikerUnity was:

I’m looking to append an adf.ly url to the beginning of the bit.ly url that is attached to the post, is this possible? I’ve looked at the code, and can’t seem to see where to do it. I’d like my urls attached to my posts look like http://adf.ly/xxxx/http://www.bit.ly/xxxx

Luckily the solution to this is really simple. We’ve added to new text fields in the settings/options page of the plugin so now you can have any text you want (even a link like in the case above) either before or after the post title. So instead of just making a post to Facebook in this format:

[post title] [link]

You can now have it like this:

[optional text] [post title] [optional text] [link]

The fields you should use to have this optional text in your updates are the new Suffix and Prefix text fields found in the options page of the plugin. The fields are of course optional and you can choose to only use one or both of them if you like.

This article is fantastic.. this plugin is exactly what I am looking for.. well almost. One of my clients want to be able to post on his WordPress site and have those updates appear on 3 Facebook pages…

Is there anyway that this can happen?

I look forward to hearing from you 🙂

Thanks again..

To send the post to multiple pages you need in that case to create multiple categories (one for each page) and include all those categories in each post.
