How does "Facebook page live video" widget works?

Here's how the Facebook page live video widget works.

• Your live video must have a title or description.
• If your page is live, the live video will be displayed.
• SociableKIT can detect a live video in 1-5 minutes after you go live on Facebook.
• If your page is not live, it will display this message: We are not live right now.
• If your page is not live, and you checked the "Show latest video if not live" option, it will show your latest video.

Please note that it won't auto-play on phones. But there will be a Live status and a play button like this:

Once the user tapped the play button, it will play in full screen, with a Live broadcast label, like this:

That way, it is better for the user experience.

You need to follow the rules below as well.

• You must be an admin of your target public Facebook page.
• There must be no age and country restrictions on your Facebook page.
• Your Facebook page must have at least 25 likes. This rule applies to some Facebook pages only.
• Your live video must be set to public. You can edit this on the 'Audience Settings'.
• Make sure your video can be embedded. You can enable this setting on Facebook before starting the live.
