earthlingj 13 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 $fb api graph token authentication that is used to try and authorize graph explorer usage for first timers $fb api http graph token that is used to go to graph explorer page and extract the current token from the page we're specifically talking about: $fb api graph token authentication I've talked to a few others and they are saying that specific command is not working for them and that they have to use the 'workaround' I'm not sure why you keep bringing up the api login or even http graph token. i'm talking about graph token authentication on first time user. its pretty clear it doesn't work. would just be nice to have that fixed rather than a browser workaround or using fb api login. It would be the smoothest and simplest way. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites

Thanksthe reason im bringing it up and giving you options and work a rounds as its much easier for the work a round to be used, since that is exactly what the function is and how its built as well. but the slightest change will break the function, where as a work a round as i have given previously will continue to work for you as its more flexible. doesn't make much since to support it and continue updating it weekly when something miniscule changes in that function. it was attempted and placed in there to help ease the process. its obviously not working and will be removed on next release.

earthlingj 13 Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 well if its too complex to fix or update $fb api graph token authentication can you at least make it so that we can accept fb api login without having the login prompt? aka directly set email and password?

earthlingj 13 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 i wish you'd fix the access token this is driving me crazy doing it manually for each account. facebook doesnt change the code that often. also i was wondering if anyone knows how to tag someone in a post/comment? i tried doing what the api doc says but its not working and idk if its the plugin or if its me.

luis carlos 94 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I could not sell a single bot using this plugin. When ppl contact me about how it works and asking me for a video, were really disappointed with the manual way of getting the token. No professional at all. I hope your coder figure out how to fix it some day. Luis Carlos Link to post Share on other sites
LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Video how to obtain a token:http://screencast.com/t/EQ441iGNza5x This video shows how to obtain a token on first run of your software, and each time after that you might need to grab a new token. The user should have access to the Graph API Explorer.https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer You can have them go to this link, to access the explorer at any time to test and make sure they have access to it to debug any issue they might be having. Aside from this there is also another way in which you can obtain a token and that's the $fb api login (function)This allows you to enter a Application id numberredirect urland scope Scope is the permissions from the graph explorer window you can set things likeuser_likesuser_website or more than 1 like souser_likes,user_website with as many as you like comma separated It will popup a window to prompt them to authorize your application with these access privileges (scope items)This feature is seldom used. as the first 2 as shown in the video are the most common uses of the api. If your still having trouble getting a token please provide me a video of sorts and example code of what your trying and I can definitely look into it.Also please navigate to the graph explorer to make sure you can access the token area of the screen as that is how its obtaining the token to use the api otherwise we would need to make a function that specifically uses the OAuth system,and would require your user to do far more than this to obtain a oauth key, and pass as well as client key and pass to access the api.

automaton 2 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I am having trouble with liking a post. It is probably something I am just being dense about. My intention is to grab a random Group comment and "Like" it. For some reason I can grab the random ID no problem, but when I try to Like that comment nothing happens. Any ideas what I might be missing? Seems like it should be simple. Link to post Share on other sites
LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 it might be that like options in groups are having troubles with their api setup. a short while back when they upgraded the api, many features were missing from the latest api for groups. to reduce spam and other activity's.

LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted June 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 TJ, can I schedule upload videos to Facebook with this plugin? ubot has its schedulign feature in v5, and you have delay functionality so yes no reason you couldnt schedule it. But uploading isnt possible with the api, only posting by using a url is. Link to post Share on other sites
luis carlos 94 Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 How will this affect the plugin? Version 2.0 of the Facebook Platform API is the last version where FQL will be available. Versions after 2.0 will not support FQL. Please migrate your applications to use Graph API instead of FQL. Please see our changelog for current version information. Link to post Share on other sites
