Why Embed Facebook Events on Your Website?

The biggest reason to embed Facebook events on your website is to tell site visitors about upcoming events so they can join.

In fact, here are some other great reasons to embed Facebook events on your website.

• You can get your website visitors to follow your Facebook page by showing them interesting events.
• Adding relevant Facebook content on your site shows visitors that you’re actively engaging with your community.
• Displaying Facebook events on WordPress keeps people on your site for longer, which is better for your site’s SEO.
• You can boost Facebook page engagement and help your content appear higher up in the news feed, raising awareness and increasing traffic to your page.

Display Events With the Facebook Page Plugin Widget

The 1st method uses Facebook’s official developer tool for embedding aspects of your Facebook page on your website.

The downside is that this method involves copying and pasting code snippets to WordPress. Plus, you don’t have a dedicated support team who will help you.

If you don’t want to deal with coding, you can try the other embedding techniques in this article.

Step 1: Use the Facebook Page Plugin Code Generator Tool

The first step in adding a Facebook event calendar widget to your website is to visit the page plugin code generator tool here.

Next, enter your Facebook page URL, and in the Tabs field, delete “timeline” and enter “events” as you can see below:

A preview of your page’s events appears in the box below to give you an idea of how it will look live on your website.

Once you’ve entered your page details, click the Get Code button.

Step 2: Generate the Facebook Event Code

Along the top of the code box, you can choose JavaScript or iFrame.

For this example, select the iFrame option and copy all of the code in the box.

You might want to paste the code into a blank text file or notepad on your computer so you don’t lose it.

Step 3: Paste the Facebook Event Code on Your Website

The next step is to embed the Facebook event code on your website.

In WordPress, head to your admin area and decide where you’d like to display your Facebook events calendar.

We’ll add our calendar to a widget in our site’s sidebar for this tutorial.

To start, head to the Appearance » Widgets menu from your WordPress admin area.

Next, you can choose between the Sidebar or Footer for your new WordPress events calendar. We’ll go with the sidebar for this tutorial.

After that, click on the plus (+) icon to add a new widget to your website. Then, select the Custom HTML widget from the options.

Finally, paste your iFrame code snippet from earlier into the new widget.

You’ll see your Facebook events displayed in your sidebar when you navigate to your main website.

In our example, we changed the iFrame code’s width in the Facebook page plugin so the widget fits our sidebar better.

Display Facebook Events with a WordPress Plugin [Best Way]

For the next method, I’ll use a Facebook feed plugin to display Facebook events on a website.

That way, you can let the Facebook plugin automatically fetch the events and add them to your website in a beautiful feed — no need to hire a Facebook developer or deal with coding!
