A simple and clean plugin that allow users to add facebook author meta (i.e. Author By info in facebook news feeds.) in their websites/blogs.

== Description ==
This is a simple plugin that allows you to set **author name** that appears on **facebook news feeds**, when someone shares on facebook. See screenshots and live demo.
= LATEST UPDATE =
Now you can set author's facebook profile link as author name for posts in news feeds. SEE LIVE DEMO and SCREENSHOTS

= How it Works! =
* To enable this setting goto **Profile >> Facebook Profile Link (Facebook Author Meta)** and enter the full *url* of facebook profile. This option sets the profile link as author's name for single **post/pages**. 
* For non-single pages like categories, date archives, tags, hompage etc
  Goto **Settings >> Facebook Author Meta** and fill the last field with the fb profile link.
* If you have multiple auhtor's then each author must fill, the field in their profile with facebook profile link.
 .e.g. *https://www.facebook.com/username*.

* If you have any questions feel free to ask me, Thanks.

= How To Use: =
* **Please Read Carefully**
1. By default this plugin automatically sets the **author name** for all **post/pages** etc. i.e. for all **single** post/pages.
	* This plugin **gets the author name** of each **post/page** etc. and set it as a **autor name** for **facebook meta**.
	* **Note:** Default value is your **public name** i.e name you set in your profile => ***[Display name publicly as]***.
	* You can set your own custom author name for all **post/pages** here **Settings >> Facebook Author Meta**.
2. By default this plugin does not automatically sets **author name** for **archives, category, tags, hompage, date archives** etc. You can set your **custom author name** for all these pages in settings page of this plugin.

= Note: =
* If you want to set **same author name** for whole website/blog  goto ***Settings >> Facebook Author Meta*** and fill both the fields with **same author name**.
	* It is useful for **personal blogs** or if you want to set your **brand name** as **author name**
