• Show Friends Faces When Logged In – This adds the clients friends that have also liked the page.
• Show Page Header – This allows your FaceBook header to display, including if you have a custom graphic for your FaceBook Page.
• Compact Mode – When selected the Page Header will be smaller.

Our Thoughts

After testing this plugin we haven’t seen any issues with it.  Once you have your FaceBook Page or ID name setup is extremely simple.  Our only wish would be for users to be able to center the Title from the widget, but thats easy to fix with a little CSS.

Pros

• Easily add a FaceBook Like and Time line to any sidebar using widgets.
