In the Modules page of your control panel click on the Facebook albums module and enter these settings. When the settings are saved you will be redirected to setup the albums you would like to use.
To use a album you have to fill in a short name, with this name you can use the album in the templates of your website. If you want the module to download the photos to your own website you have to select the sync checkbox and select a folder you want to use.
The module has three different tags
{exp:fb_photos:album_info name="short_name" item="item"}
With this tag you can retrieve information about the album that facebook provides. You can use this to display for example the title or description of a album.
*short_name - The short name of the album you've entered in the module cp *item - This parameter lets you define what information you want to display. You can fill in 'all' to see the fields you can use for the album.
{exp:fb_photos:album_pagination name="short_name" param="page" limit="25"}
{if prev}
<a href="/album/?page={prev_offset}">Back</a>
{/if}
{if next}
<a href="/album/?page={next_offset}">Next</a>
{/if}
{/exp:pb_photos:album_pagination}
*short_name - The short name of the album you've entered in the module cp *param - The url parameter that will be used for pagination. Default: ?page=... *limit - The maximum number of photos the module will show. Default: 25 This tag provides a simple form of pagination.

<a href="{img-3}" title="{name}">
