3. Obtain your Facebook Page ID. This is a required field, so it must be added before you can continue. This article shows you where to find this if you're unsure.
If you have a default image that you'd like to add to ALL of your Facebook wall posts, then set it at 'default level', OR, for individual user profiles. Please make sure you only enter a valid URL here, and also make sure the image hosted on your URL won't be changed or updated regularly. The image will be added below your post, like this:
5. If you'd like to add different images to different posts, then don't save anything on the Settings page but add the URL on the second stage of posting instead. If utilized, this field will also override anything already saved on the Settings page.
That's it..! Just make sure everything's saved as required and you'll be good to go.
