Description

Facebook allows you to lower the width of the widget and make it adaptive. Unfortunately, this can not be played using the jetpack widget

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Create facebook likebox widget
  2. Set width to "0"

What I expected

The widget adapts to the width of the container

<div class="fb-page" data-adapt-container-width="true">...</div>

What happened instead

The widget has a static minimum width

<div class="fb-page" width="180" data-adapt-container-width="false">...</div>

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the Facebook likebox widget code in Jetpack and locate where the fb page div is rendered. Add the data adapt container width attribute with a value based on a new option (e.g., a checkbox in the widget form). Update the widget's update() method to save the option and modify the output accordingly.
