Facebook Connector Symfony Bundle for Contao - Basic Version

Note: From 4th to 11th of April in 2018 Facebook did some sudden API changes. So the module is not working as expected and some features (e.g. event synchronization) may temporarily or no longer possible. These changes affect all Facebook plugins and we are waiting for further communications from Facebook. Currently we can no longer guarantee the further development of the module.

With this module you can easily synchronize Facebook posts with your Contao installation. The module is splitten up into two versions. The basic version you can find here and a "Pro Version" with additional features. If you interested in the professional version, please contact us: https://www.postyou.de/contao-facebook-connector.html

This is the symfony bundle for Contao 4. The version for Contao 3 you can find on https://github.com/postyou/contao-facebook-connector_basic
