How to Download Custom Facebook Feed Pro – Date Range
The Custom Facebook Feed Pro – Date Range is available for download here on Ultrapack. After installing the base plugin, upload the addon file in Plugins > Add New > Upload plugin and activate to enable the date filter in the Facebook feed settings.
Websites that publish a lot on Facebook and replicate this content on WordPress tend to accumulate posts that have lost their validity within the embedded feed. With the date filter active, each campaign, event, or promotion disappears from the storefront at the right time, without relying on someone remembering to review the feed.
