I am building a website for a friend. I am using WordPress and doing the work on a localhost. My friend wants a Facebook feed. I have a plugin I like. I signed up as a test user on Facebook but because it's a test user and not a real user on a live site I can't get the plugin to work. I now understand that I am doing the wrong thing trying to use a test user Facebook page to give content to the plugin but I don't know what the right way is. Please tell me the correct way to use "dummy" Facebook content to test a Wordpress plugin on a non-live site. I will delete my test user as soon as I know the correct way. I'm working very hard to learn how to develop websites and how to correctly use Wordpress. I am also researching this on the Wordpress forum and on Google but I also need expert advice. Thank you.

I’m getting a very strange error. When I try to log in to the back-end of WordPress at the address mysite.com/wp-admin, to access the back-end, I am automatically being redirected to mysite.com/login.php... as if I were trying to log into an account as a regular user or a customer.
I’m a novice with WordPress, and I can’t seem to figure this out. Please help.
I have a website which allows some of the users to post available jobs around the block and others apply through it.
Thank You
I'm not using any plugin to implement the front-end at all.
I tried to login using the regular admin credentials and it didn't work.
A way to login the back-end so i can customize the site
It sounds like you have a theme redirect. Try logging into your site using the login page it should function the exact same way. If not try seeing if the theme has any documentation about its redirect. and if you are able to get to the admin section i personally like having ithemes installed which lets me set my own url for the backend. You can also try /wp-login.php as well.
i'm a beginner and I'm trying to set a login page on my website build in wordpress. Searching on google I don't find a solution for my issue. There are a lot of plugins that customize the login page in wp-admin to acces at the backend. What I'm trying to do is different. I'd like to put a login page at my website www.example.com (home page) and after the user has insered the credentials, he can see everything on the website. I don't know how to start. Every suggests are appreciate. Thank you in advance
If you're ok with using WP users table and auth systems you could put template content inside a conditional to check if users are logged in.
It isn't elegant but it would get you what you want.
My project is social network website which will be built on CMS. I have decided for WordPress. The thing is I am not so sure about my decision now.
Website should have features like login and register forms, profile making and editing, user generated content from front end of site, content making restriction only on registered users of website, publishing most popular posts on home page.
User posts should be public. What I mean by that is, while I was previewing themes, I noticed that most posts from users were posted in groups. I would like this website to work more like Facebook.
Is it possible to make this sort of website with WordPress without custom plugins? And could you recommend a theme for this sort of project?
Sorry for long question and thanks in advance :D
You should look into Social specific plugin/project for WordPress called BuddyPress. https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/
If you look into buddypress specific themes you might be able to find something which is similar to your goals.
Here is official website https://buddypress.org/ (it is open source free project by WP team)
It has a feature called Activity Stream which you might be looking for which is like FB timeline.
I have made a website. I did it with wordpress, making a custom theme.
All works fine, but I have a problem.
When I share any url on facebook, the info is not showed correctly. Only shows correctly if I go to open graph stories and I fetch the newest info.
I must do it for any url of the website?
Is posible do it for all urls once?
Or any other option?
Thank you!
I would propose to check if ALL your OG tags are correct, https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/
or just simply use Facebook OGP plugin for Wordpress, which makes your work easy. Search WP plugins here https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?type=term&q=facebook+OGP
I'm building wordpress e-commerce site (using wp e-commerce plugin), so i added Facebook Open Graph Protocol, so now my site is connected to facebook and i can put facebook like button for the entire web site or for pages or for posts,but i want to add like button for all of the products of my sites, i tried many plugins but none of them works for me. I read on some forums that i should add some code to single-product.php, but there are 3 files with that name.
If anybody knows how this works, please help me.
Thanks.
You can find a detailed tutorial on how to integrate the Facebook Like Button with Wordpress on my blog here:

If you follow the steps you should be able to add the XFBML tags anywhere in your theme.
