  4. After you have made your selections scroll down and click the blue Get code button. This will open a popup window with the code in it – don’t do anything with it yet, just leave it open.
  5. Open a new tab or window in your browser and login to your SmartCMS website.
  6. Locate the area of the website where you would like the Facebook Page plugin to appear and click the Add button (plus sign) in the far right of the content area heading bar. Select the < html > source option and remove the place holder paragraph in the window that pops up.

  9. Go back to the Facebook code and copy section 2
  10. Paste the code from section 2 below the code you pasted in previously and click Save
