In order to display the number of Facebook fans in a WordPress site just copy and paste below code to your WordPress theme. Don’t forgot to change PAGE-ID to your Facebook fan page ID.
<?php $page_id = "PAGE-ID"; $xml = @simplexml_load_file("http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=facebook.fql.query&query=SELECT%20fan_count%20FROM%20page%20WHERE%20page_id=".$page_id."") or die ("oops"); $fans = $xml->page->fan_count; echo $fans; ?> |
