Connecting your school's official Facebook Page to the Edlio Mobile App automatically syndicates public posts directly into your school's mobile newsfeed, keeping families informed without requiring duplicate data entry.
Where to Find Social Feeds in the Dashboard
Social feed connections are managed within the News settings inside your administrative dashboard:
From the primary left navigation or dashboard, select News.
Click Settings in the top-right toolbar.
Select the Feeds tab to view all external feed integrations.
Connecting a Facebook Feed
Select the Facebook Feeds tab.
Click the + New button in the top-right corner.
Click Connect with Facebook and authenticate using an administrative account with management access to your school's public Facebook Page.
Choose the specific Facebook Page you wish to syndicate.
Configure syndication options: select whether new Facebook posts should automatically generate Push Notifications and/or create dedicated News Items in the mobile app feed.
Click Save & Edit or OK to confirm.
đĄ Best-Practice Adoption Tip: Restrict Facebook push notifications to critical updates. If your Facebook page posts multiple times daily (such as cafeteria menus, athletic score alerts, and photo albums), uncheck "Create Push Notification" and keep "Create News Item" enabled to prevent alert fatigue while keeping the app newsfeed vibrant and active.
â ď¸ Quarterly Token Expiration Notice: Per Meta's platform security policies, Facebook Page access tokens expire every 60â90 days. If your Facebook feed stops pulling new posts into the mobile app, log into the dashboard, navigate to News > Settings > Feeds > Facebook Feeds, and re-authenticate your connection.
