Facebook added a solution to publish anything other than “like”: The “Actions”.

The principle is simple. A user performs an action on an object on your website.
Generally the object is an article, and the action is reading.
But you can create your own action, and your own objects through your application on facebook.
Using the parameters openGraph you can define your own objects related to your posts.
With the actions of facebook, your website becomes fully connected to the largest social network in the world.

Features

This extension is able to automatically publish articles that your visitors are reading in real time on Facebook.
By default, OpenGraph Shares publishes with the action “news.reads” and object “article”. But you can redefine them in the plugin parameters.
You can also use the plugin to create new actions between the user and your site.
A page displays the user activity on your site because Facebook wants users to be able to delete the shares issued.
The social bar at the bottom of each article indicates the status of the publication, and the current reading. The social reading can be turn off or deleted at any time by users
Shortcodes & Widgets ready
Create action buttons, with various events, with shortcodes or widgets.
Developers can easily create custom callbacks
