Display number of retweets of a blog post - php

I was wondering if anyone has a link to any information regarding building in Twitter Mention functionality into a website like here, http://paul.boagworld.com/?page=2, where each post dispays the number of times it has been mentioned on twitter.
Many thanks,

How to add instagram feed to website in 2022?

I would like to show the last 8 images from my Instagram profile on my website.
I've just spent the last hour looking for info on this but can't find anything recent information anywhere. I can't believe something as simple as showing my latest posts can be so complicated!
I have custom built our site using HTML, PHP and jquery. I'm not interested in paid 3rd party software and Wordpress/Shopify plugins aren't relevant to me.
I'm in the same situation if it can reassure you!
Indeed according to my research I think that Instagram have put their APIs on hold because of the Metaverse and the takeover by Facebook etc...
So it is currently impossible to display our instagram news feed on our sites, whether in PHP or JS...
It's quite compelling...

Creating a custom facebook feed on a website

I'm trying to find some information/documentation on creating a custom Facebook feed for any website. (Custom css etc) but there is nearly nothing to find. I want to read posts from a public facebook page and display them on my website in an owl carousel.
The only guide I found was outdated since facebooks developers page completely changed and the other guides are all for Wordpress.
Does anyone know any good guides, or can anyone help me in the good direction?
Thanks
Example code and information can be found in the API reference:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/page/feed#read
I suggest using an App Token on the server, it is valid forever. If you donĀ“t know about the different Tokens, here are some links:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/access-tokens

Side Note: To get pictures, you can use the full_picture field: /page-id/feed?fields=full_picture

Facebook page activity feed

We want to add an activity feed for a Facebook page as a widget to our Wordpress blog. This seems like it should be a simple thing to do, the Facebook documentation refuses to yield the relevant description though. It seems like 'perhaps' an app is required, although maybe not...
Any tips much appreciated.

You can grab an RSS feed from a facebook page through the graph API; which will be written in XML
Edit:
Most of the necessary steps are outlined here: http://sem-group.net/search-engine-optimization-blog/subscribe-to-your-favorite-facebook-page-via-rss/
Although you'll need to get the id of your page as part of the steps above.
To get Facebook page id: http://rieglerova.net/how-to-get-a-facebook-fan-page-id/
Wordpress seems to have its own specific plugin for importing RSS feeds:

(P.S. IF you find that this answers your question would there be any chance you could accept it?)

Facebook Posts and Multiple Actions

Can you post multiple actions (I want to do two) with a wall post using the Facebook Graph API? If so what is the format that should be used for the actions string. I can't get this to work for the life of me.
This piece of documentation describes the parameter as a array of objects containing the name and link. I used json to do this however I can only successfully do one action link and not two.
I think you are talking about the custom app-pecified links displayed in the wall post. No, facebook allows only 1, and tha'ts how the structure of facebook wall post is.
there is written here http://fbdevwiki.com/wiki/FB.ui#method:_.27feed.27 that only one action link allowed

Facebook Like Count

I've successfully integrated a Facebook Like button to WordPress based website. The Facebook Like button is shown only on single posts. However, I would like to output how many times a post is being liked on the front page of my site without showing the actual like button. A simple number output is what I'm after.
I've been reading Facebook documentation as well some tutorials that partly deal with this issue, but haven't got anywhere so far.
Paste this function in your theme functions.php file and save the file.
function bfan() {
$pageID = 'Page ID/Page Vanity URL';
$info = json_decode(file_get_contents('http://graph.facebook.com/' . $pageID));
echo $info->likes;
}
Then you can call the function.
You will need to know your facebook page ID or facebook page name,then just substitute it in the code above.
Hope this helps you out.
Facebook has an API for finding out how many Facebook shares (likes etc.) a page has:
http://graph.facebook.com/?ids=https://stackoverflow.com/
I found here a simple and great solution: link
If you want see the evolution of your Top Social Stories in your Wordpress, you can use this plugin that tracks data from Facebook, Twitter and Google+ for each post and globally for all the links of your blog and export these data also in custom field to use them in your theme.
UPDATE: this plugin now tracks also Pinterest, Linkedin and Vkontakte and has many new features.
