I can’t see your profile (to which you linked) as we’re not friends and your privacy settings prevent it.

What’s the link to your Facebook application (should look something like http://apps.facebook.com/somethinghere/) and what is the link to your blog outside facebook?

However, there are a couple issues! (1)Recent Posts List is displaying correctly. However, when you click on any of the individual posts in the Recent Posts List, it just takes you to the Recent Posts List again. Doesn’t matter what topic you click on!

See: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1149181756&ref=profile

One the Left-hand side, find the “Sapphire Solutions, Ltd. – Blog” box & Click on any one of them.

I am working on a next version (1.4 most likely) which will publish to your wall (and maybe to subscribers – haven’t figured that one out yet) using the Facebook Publisher.

Could be that notifications is a possibility

Basically I see folks have issues whenever their blog homepage is different than their callback url.

This is because the “invite friends” link has to construct a link to itself, which it expects to be, based on the callback url:
http://abhi.com.np/blog/index.php

But instead the link seems to be pointing to:
http://abhi.com.np/blog/category/funny-jokes-videos-pranks/index.php

Are you trying to show only one *category* of posts? That is not currently supported.

What is the url of your app in facebook?
http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=66403693819

What is the url of the blog outside facebook?
http://abhi.com.np/blog/category/funny-jokes-videos-pranks/

What have you set as the “callback” url inside Facebook?
http://abhi.com.np/blog/

What is the url of the blog outside facebook?

What have you set as the “callback” url inside Facebook?

It looks as though for some reason the invite page is pointing to the wrong url – but I don’t know why from the outside.

Errors while loading page from application

There are still a few kinks Facebook and the makers of Funny Jokes Videos Pranks LOL are trying to iron out. We appreciate your patience as we try to fix these issues. Your problem has been logged – if it persists, please come back in a few days. Thanks!

Thanks for this great app!
As for the comments not working, as you have predicted, it will not work if the blog is stored under a subdirectory. I have mine placed under the directory “blog” from the root directory.

I did a quick ugly hack to solve this:
in ./theme/comments.php

Replace

<form action="/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/fb-comments-post.php?fb_sig_in_iframe"
method="post" id="commentform">


with


<form action="/blog/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/fb-comments-post.php?fb_sig_in_iframe"
method="post" id="commentform">


This would solve the comments issue as the link was not pointing to the right path for my blog.

It might be related to some complexities of the Hybrid theme you’re using, and how you are handling the blog home page, categories, topics, etc.

You don’t need to do anything with the Sample Code – that’s just offered by Facebook to help.

Your plugin would make an excellent addition to our little community website. I’m pretty sure I’ve followed the instructions faithfully but I’m not a programmer and don’t know what to do with these error messages I’m getting.

Going to the canvas of my fb app here: http://apps.facebook.com/squidlog/ it looks ok, except that it doesn’t show the latest post. Instead, it shows the date of Feb. 4, 2009 and a blank post. Incidentally, Feb 4 was one of the few days that we didn’t publish any post at all. Strangely, the “blank post” has post footer data though.

In the post footer of all posts the variable %permalink% doesn’t resolve.

Now when I try to invite some people with the “Invite Friends” button I get a huge error list:
————————————————-

Errors while loading page from application
Parse errors:

CSS Error (line 76 char 8): Unrecognized at-rule or error parsing at-rule.

CSS Error (line 156 char 0): Error in parsing value for property.: ‘font’ Declaration dropped.

FBML Error (line 254): illegal tag “body” under “fb:canvas”

FBML Error (line 318): illegal tag “noscript” under “fb:canvas”

Runtime errors:

HTML error while rendering tag “script”: App exceeded maximum number of script references

(this last line is repeated about 25 times)
——————————————-

Any idea if this is due to a mistake I made?

Also, when I’m in the developer’s view of my app at the bottom of the menu is this option:

———————-
Sample Code
Get started quickly with some example code!
———————-

Is that something I need to do? Or is that supposed to be done by the plugin?

Thanks so much for any help!

Are you saying the images work in the context of the blog post outside facebook but fail inside facebook?

Also, can you share the url of your blog in and ouside of FB?

“<a href=”/”><img src=”/images/logo.png”>”

doesn’t work.

Have you checked (and double checked, and triple checked) that the “secret” and “API Key” are exactly as shown in Facebook and are in the right places?

I just don’t know where to start. A little help would be much appreciated. WordPress 2.7 WPBook 1.3.1
If i’ve done something daft, pls let me know.

heh, I completely left out which plugin I was using. It IS the Sociable.es one.

Line 2618 is just an exception handler. The exception comes from

/**
* Returns the session information available after current user logs in.
*
* @param string $auth_token the token returned by
* auth_createToken or passed back to
* your callback_url.
* @param bool $generate_session_secret whether the session returned should
* include a session secret
*
* @return array An assoc array containing session_key, uid
*/
public function auth_getSession($auth_token, $generate_session_secret=false) {
//Check if we are in batch mode
if($this->batch_queue === null) {
$result = $this->call_method('facebook.auth.getSession',
array('auth_token' => $auth_token,
'generate_session_secret' => $generate_session_secret));
$this->session_key = $result['session_key'];

if (!empty($result['secret']) && !$generate_session_secret) {
// desktop apps have a special secret
$this->secret = $result['secret'];
}
return $result;
}
}


This one is the culprit (line 281/282) but i dont understand why.
array('auth_token' => $auth_token,
'generate_session_secret' => $generate_session_secret));

Which fbconnect are you using? it might be faster and less of a pain for me to switch to that one.

I’ll test your “client” tonight and let you know.

Thanks for your time.

I don’t even see a line 2618 in the fbconnect plugin I have, in that facebookapi_php5_restlib.php

If you disable fbconnect does it work?

There was an earlier problem with the Sociable.es Facebook Connect plugin, which I posted a fix to in another post – but your error seems related to something else.

You might try updating the copy of the “facebook client” provided by fbconnect with the one from wpbook – but that might break fbconnect.

Thanks for this excellent plugin. I am having some problems making it work tho.

Not surprisingly this plugin seems to be incompatible with the fbconnect one, throwing an exception

you can see it in http://apps.facebook.com/sustentator

I know this is from no fault of your app, or fbconnect’s (maybe, had to tweak it some to get it to work as i wanted it to) … but you are far more experienced than me on this.

Do you have any idea how I can get these two apps to work together ? maybe you both are including the same connection php file instead of just “include once” … ? or something …

It would be really helpful if you could give me some ideas of things to test

Thanks in advanced

The /wpbook/ directory appeared to be the one needing the change.

Much obliged!

A

The problem you’re having is related to permissions on your /wp-content/plugins/wpbook/ directory – it’s also impacting the css.

(Try to load http://www.outsider.org.uk/blog/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/default/style.css and you get a 403 Forbidden message).

I see you tried changing that file, but I believe you’ll need to change the enclosing folders – could be any of:

/wp-content/plugins/
/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/
/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/
/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/default/


This doesn’t impact the normal index page because it is addressed directly by the browser but included from the wordpress side – the comments-submitting page needs to be directly addressable from the outside.

Very keen on this application – it looks to be almost exactly what I’m looking for. I’ve just installed it on FB and on WP and it’s *almost* working perfectly, but for one problem.

I’m getting the following error when trying to post a test reply to a blog post from inside Facebook.
“Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /blog/wp-content/plugins/wpbook/theme/fb-comments-post.php on this server.”

Which is odd, surely since I installed the plug in, it’s my website, I’m logged into FB under my own profile, etc.

I tried changing the permissions of the fb-comments-post.php file on the server to full 777 access, but that didn’t make any difference. (I changed them back to the original setting afterwards!)

Relevant details:
WPBook v1.3.1
MySQL v5.0.45
PHP version 5 point something

http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=61551374747
http://apps.facebook.com/alextreacherblog/

Settings:
Allow comments inside Facebook: ON
Require author’s e-mail: OFF

Socialise and General options:
All ON (for the purpose of testing, anyway)

Custom Header/Footer
DISABLED

Any ideas what’s causing this, and what I could do to fix it?

And an unrelated question…
Will new posts imported to FB from WP show up in any way on the main feed, even as a single line? (By that I mean will the post have any presence outside the dedicated blog page/canvas to alert other people to their presence?)

Thanks in advance,
A
