I need your help and advice yet again!

I’m trying to do a website as part of a group project at uni, developing for a friend’s business, and I’m ready to pull my hair out!

I’m completely stuck at embedding status updates on the website. I have got the RSS feed url and have tried several website such as http://www.rssinclude.com to embed it in a usable format.

The feed does not validate as well-formed RSS here:
http://www.rssboard.org/rss-validator/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Ffeeds%2Fpage.php%3Fid%3D116381405151339%26format%3Drss20

You can see an example of the feed embedded here:

I’ve read numerous different ways of fetching details, using Facebook API – which seems to have disappeared? and other SDK’s.

I want to be able to style the status update stuff when I embed it on the site.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

JD

    Update 2: From your further descriptions, I think the Like box should be enough and its much easier to use – make sure “show Stream” is checked on (You can turn off show Faces & header). http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/

    The Facebook API is still around and is how you should interact with Facebook.

    The Facebook Live Stream plugin does exactly what you seem to require, and this page even gives you the code to include in your page:
    Facebook Live Stream

    Edit: Don’t forget you will need to register your website to get an AppID first: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/web/#login
