Ever wanted to put a Facebook page’s feed into your website? Every Facebook page has an RSS & JSON feed. In this tutorial I will show you how to use PHP and JSON to pull the feed from Facebook without authentication.

- You will need your page ID. You can get this from https://graph.facebook.com/yourpage for example https://graph.facebook.com/HoosierHeights If your page does not have a username, you can visit your page and copy the last numbers in the URL for example:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/HoosierHeights/163276271689
- Now that you have your page ID you can view the JSON feed at this URL:
http://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?id=163276271689&format=json
(replacing the number with your page ID). - Here is the PHP code to pull the JSON feed into your site. (Be sure to replace the URL with your own).
<? //replace the Page ID with your own $url = "http://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?id=163276271689&format=json"; // disguises the curl using fake headers and a fake user agent. function disguise_curl($url) { $curl = curl_init(); // Setup headers - the same headers from Firefox version 2.0.0.6 // below was split up because the line was too long. $header[0] = "Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,"; $header[0] .= "text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5"; $header[] = "Cache-Control: max-age=0"; $header[] = "Connection: keep-alive"; $header[] = "Keep-Alive: 300"; $header[] = "Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7"; $header[] = "Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5"; $header[] = "Pragma: "; // browsers keep this blank. curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla'); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_REFERER, ''); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_ENCODING, 'gzip,deflate'); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, true); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10); $html = curl_exec($curl); // execute the curl command curl_close($curl); // close the connection return $html; // and finally, return $html } // uses the function and displays the text off the website $text = disguise_curl($url); $json_feed_object = json_decode($text); foreach ( $json_feed_object->entries as $entry ) { echo "<h2>{$entry->title}</h2>"; $published = date("g:i A F j, Y", strtotime($entry->published)); echo "<small>{$published}</small>"; echo "<p>{$entry->content}</p>"; echo "<hr />"; } ?>
That’s it! Easy right? I would like to give credit to @mdlamar for providing help with this idea.
