txp-fb-instant-articles-page

A simple one page RSS layout for Facebook's Instant Articles integration into Textpattern CMS

Prerequisites

You will need a facebook activated "Page" account, then to set your custom Textpattern RSS link into the "Publication Tools" from your facebook Page, at least 10 published articles within your website, then wait for crawler bots.

More infos: here from the official fb developers docs.

Page layout

No plugins, you only need Textpattern CMS ;)

Just copy/paste this page layout into Textpattern and associate it to a section name (that will be your "facebook Instant articles" RSS link URL).

Customization

Choosing the articles section

By defaut articles will be extracted from the "articles" section. If you want to change, sets the "section" attribute into this line (comma separated sections list allowed): <txp:article_custom section="articles" limit="10"(limited articles number: 10).

Frequences

Note: The RSS feed is last website modification date updated.

Copyright Date

The copyright dates starts from the website first installation year. If you want to change this year, remove this code $start= date("Y", get_pref('sql_now_created')); by this one: $start = 'YYYY'; where "YYYY" is an integer (the year).

Article's customization into facebook from the Instant Articles editor

See the "How To" here.

Feed Preview

The feed preview into the facebook social network relies on the Open Graph meta tags. See this other plugin compagnon for complete integration within your website.
