IMPORTANT NOTE: The Facebook automatic business page upload feature will only upload NEW images your Facebook business page. It will not upload pre-existing images from your watch folder. This is to prevent duplicate images being uploaded in various scenarios. Test your Facebook business page uploading by saving a new image in your watch folder after starting your device server.
