Phyllis, I’ve downloaded the plugin, but can’t figure out how to get the code and paste it into a page on my site. (I know we did this in class, but I just don’t remember. Sorry.)
these instructions don’t need a plugin
paste the code into a text widget for sidebars or into the HTML view when editing the page
I have yet to make the Facebook Fanbox plugin work. Is that the one you’re using? I’ll keep working on it and post an answer here if I figure it out.
In the meantime, you should be able to use the simple method described here.
