Instant Facebook

Summary

Create an ad from a public Facebook page. This pulls in the latest post from a Facebook feed once per hour. It displays the photo, caption, and optionally, comments and like information on the post. The Facebook page *must* have its age restrictions set to 13+ and have no country restriction. It only pulls in posts by the admin of the page, but will pull in comments by other users.

Embed An Example In Your Media Kit

Customers who wish to embed the example on some "Media Kit" page on their website can do so in one of two ways:


Option 1: If you have Wordpress and the Broadstreet plugin, you can use this shortcode anywhere in any post to render the example. 

[broadstreet ad="64527"]

Option 2: If you do not have Wordpress, or choose not install the Broadstreet plugin, you can embed this javascript code snippet into your post: 

<div street-address="64527"></div><script>
    (function(d, s) {
    // CLICK MACRO AND CONFIGURATION SECTION
    var destination = '%%CLICK_URL_ESC%%';
    // DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE
    var js, bjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
    js = d.createElement(s); js.async = true;
    js.src = "//ad.broadstreetads.com/display/64527.js?sa=1&"
        + (window.broadstreet ? 'init=0' : '')
        + (destination.indexOf('CLICK_URL_ESC') >= 0
        ? '' : '&destination=' + destination);
    bjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, bjs);
    }(document, 'script'));</script>
