I would like to be able to automatically import my WP blogs into a Facebook page for a client.
I know that there are wp plugins that used to do this, but Facebook now requires ssl connections and these plugins no longer work. I think that there may be a way of using the Facebook API, (kind of like an rss feed) but I can't find any instructions. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
If you want to build your own you can create an app and use something like http://jquery.malsup.com/gfeed/ to import your blog in.
Wordpress generates an RSS feed of your blog. This you can import into Facebook using, for example, RSS Graffitti.

I'm trying to add a section of my site where my visitors can read all the latest posts from a company's twitter and facebook.
Twitter was really easy to implement, but now I am stuck at trying to find a solution to implement the latest facebook post.
I've looked on the facebook dev site as well searched on google, but most answers suggest fetching RSS feeds or other stuff that facebook no longer supports.
Does anyone know of how to do this? Is it even possible anymore?
I know this is an old post, but maybe this will help someone.
I found this option:
Use the facebook page plugin. Instructions are here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin
As you know, a lot of bigger news websites have intorduced "social readers" for Facebook (e.g. https://apps.facebook.com/wpsocialreader/), which log what the user has read into the activity stream ("Michael read..."). Is it possible to integrate similar functionality into a Wordpress blog? Are the relevant API's open? Are there any plugins available? Thanks.

The plugin seems to do the trick. Will have to try it out!
Yep, all of the APIs required to recreate the WashPo Reader or the Guardian reader etc are open, so it shouldn't be an issue to implement it for Wordpress.
Here's the relevant docs - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
i am the creator of Facebook AWD.
From now to get actions publishing working with Facebook AWD and wordpress you must buy a subplugin.
This process will take place with the v1.3 of Facebook AWD
Update: The plugin is ready here: http://facebook-awd.ahwebdev.fr/plugins/opengraph-actions/
Came across this post while searching for something related. Anyone still thinking of integrating Social read with any blog or website can simply use this plugin(For non-developers or for developers who just want to use a ready made solution)..

I know there is a plugin to put facebook comment app into Wordpress, which automatically merge the comments. The problem is that I installed the plugin hard-code style, so I don't have any plugin page on Wordpress, I just check the comments with the moderator tool at facebook. Now I don't want it anymore, and I'm not finding a way to export the comments to wordpress. Tried this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook-import-comments/ but doens't work, doesn't event my App ID. Any ideas?
Try Facebook for SEO - it should import them into your database (just noticed that it won't import the user pic with the comment, but it worked on mine). I was using the social media plugin for Facebook comments using the FB developers app.
Is there any plugin or way to post on my facebook wall directly from my website?
(There are plugins available for WordPress. But mine is not a blog site).
Thanks in advance
Facebook has a full REST api, so you should be able to use it from any language. If you are using PHP you could look at what the wordpress plugin is doing and then replicate that for your page. Otherwise you probably should look at the SDK information for facebooks api processes and then just call them however you need from your site.
There's a comments widget.
