Facebook Album allows you to display your Facebook photos right onto your WordPress site. Simply copy an album's URL and use the plugin's shortcode - or widget - to display that album. By default the plugin works seamlessly with Facebook Page albums, however to use your personal Facebook albums you must configure a Facebook app. If you need help,
check out this YouTube video.
Through Settings -> Facebook Album you can adjust the thumbnail sizes of your album's photos when they are displayed, along with enabling or disabling the album's title or the photo's description display.
This plugin comes bundled with Colorbox, which can be disabled. Certain colorbox options are configurable, more will be soon.
Shortcode Example:
[fbalbum url=
