Pragmatic has provided a connection with the social feeds of Facebook and Twitter In Odoo


With Odoo 9 Social Feed module, Pragmatic has provided a connection with the social feeds of Facebook and Twitter. The feeds from both the sites are combined and made available to the user in chronological order. Also, there is a facility of custom odoo posts which can be added to them.
  • Before starting with this module, the user needs to specify the account names in the configuration from which the feeds are to be fetched.
  • Feeds from multiple accounts can also be fetched.
  • The feeds related to the specified accounts of both facebook and twitter are fetched and then arranged in the ascending order of time elapsed and displayed to the user.
Facebook Feeds
  • To identify that a particular post is from facebook, a facebook icon is shown on top of that post.
  • Name of the account from which that post is fetched is also shown beside the icon. This can be helpful in case multiple accounts are specified.
Twitter Feeds
  • Similarly, to identify that a particular post is from twitter, a twitter icon is shown on top of that post.
  • Name of the account from which that post is fetched is also shown beside the icon. This can be helpful in case multiple accounts are specified.
Custom Feeds
  • There is also a facility to send custom feeds (posted by the odoo users).
  • The users can post the company related feeds, best wishes, or any other newsfeeds internally which will be available to other odoo users.
  • Internal posts are to be written in the textbox given at the bottom of the page.
  • Also, you can attach an image to the text message, which will be describing your message.
  • The image icon beside the textbox allows you to select the images available on your local machine.
  • User has to upload the image, which will then get added in the textbox.
  • After the message is completed, click on the Post button.
  • Once, clicked on the Post button, the message will be posted above along with the time ago tag.

  • Complete feed of facebook and twitter are not displayed here as it may occupy lots of space. Hence, the 'read more..' option is provided.
