This may be the wrong forum, but I do not know of any more suitable (there's definitely nothing on Facebook itself).
I want to post on someone else's Facebook page as my own page. It is possible, I've done it before.
But it seems now only possible for pages that have been switched to the "new pages experience".
I manage several pages, but only one of them appears in the "post as" list. That is the one that has somehow been switched.
For love nor money I cannot find out how to get the other pages switched over.
Help, please.

I post links on my site's FB page (1 or 2 per day). All links points back to my web site.
Often, especially on mobile and tablets, this warning pops up when people are clicking those links on my page:
Something Went Wrong
Sorry, there was a problem with this link: http://www.delbart.no/sam-den-bekymrede-katten/.
You can now continue to this website, or go back to the page you were on before. Remember, only follow links from sources you trust.
The link above is just one of many ...
I've tested many of the links in debugger without finding any issues.
Do you know why Facebook are showing those warning messages?
What can I do to avoid them?
All the best :)
I have tried using all different plugins (facebook, facebook comments, seo facebook comments, and more), I have even added the application manualy (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/comments/ using html5 plugin code). All options do the same thing.
Comments show up that is all fine. Readers are able to comment on the website through the box, thats fine too. But then when I want to publish to facebook, all seems good too, it will publish it. But when I go to facebook and click on the published comment, it is not possible to like or comment (on the publish comment). Facebook shows the comment on the timeline, but clicking on it gives this message:
"Object cannot be liked
Unable to like this object because it is not accessible (it may have been removed or you may no longer have permission to see it)."
I can click the link in "John Doe has commented on a link" and it will take me to the page however.
Some other strange things that happen are (on the actual wp post) when you comment and have the "post to facebook" box checked, it won't publish straight away, but give the message "This comment has not yet been published to Facebook. Publish Comment". Only after clicking publish comment will it ask permission to publish on my profile.
And then when you want to delete the message, it will say "Oops Something went wrong. We're working on getting it fixed as soon as we can." Click delete again and it deletes. No fail every time on the second time after that message.
Please help me out, before I go crazy :P Website is tryajuice.com
I am also using Yoast WordPress SEO: Social, OneAll social login, which might influence it, but deactivating them all doesn't make a difference, unfortunately.
Any help will be much appreciated.
I have a web site that gets quite a bit of traffic from Facebook. I've never had any problems sharing links to it on my Facebook page, but starting this afternoon, whenever I post a link to my web site from my facebook page, the post disappears from all users' feeds after 2-3 hours. This has happened 3 times now and I can't understand why. At first I thought it was my page itself, but it seems to be my domain because when I share from a different page (the same domain), it also disappears.
It worked fine this morning but not now. What is going on? Is this a glitch or is it some kind of system FB has in place now? This is really hurting traffic and clicks out from FB to my site.
Thank you.
Edit: looking back, it seems this may have started happening around Tuesday. Is there some kind of system in place now to limit the amount of clicks out you can get from a post? I can't see any other reason it's happening...
There are several possible causes:
Links that you use is a dynamic link which at times can be changed, use the static link. Example your link like this: http://www.domain.com/page.php?var=xxxxxxxx, where the parameter xxxxxxxx values on the links can change at any time may be due to activity updates. This will cause facebook can not find a link that has been logged.
Bandwidth & server connection you less stable.
If I may suggest, avoid links / URLs dynamically & use the SEO Friendly link/URL like this page URL http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8529022/why-are-my-links-to-my-site-disappearing-from-feeds-after-2-3-hours
Has anyone experienced this? Facebook says the Fan Page is for admin purposes (view insights, etc.) but the page itself seems to have limited functionality. I can't edit it like a normal Page and the "About" and "Description" fields were populated automatically but are duplicates of each other. Again, I can't find a way to edit the fields without messing up the actual App description. What can I do?
Not sure how much this will help but, I'm pretty sure I merged my app fan page with my regular fan page earlier, and it wreaked havoc on everything. If you are given the opportunity to do that anywhere, don't, because you can't reverse it...
first time Facebook developer so was hoping for some guidance. Been given a very brief spec:
Requirement is to run it where fans have to give email (so that we can
contact winners) with opt in for newsletter sign up and also must FB
like VF to be entered into prize draw. There will be options to choose
from. They choose one and can't vote more than once.
So I'm thinking about a Facebook application that sits as a tab on the facebook page. If the user hasn't "Liked" the page, they'll be encouraged to "Like" the page in order to proceed.
If it's liked, they'll have an option to opt into our newsletter. They will also be allowed to answer one question with one answer. When they submit it, they will then be entered into a competition.
If they pick the "right" option, we will send them an email telling them so.
Right - does this sound fairly straightforward? Are there any guides, examples or tutorials that could help? Am I going about it in the right way?
Many thanks in advance,
JJ
That sounds very straightforward and you are going about it in the right way.
The best tutorials and examples can probably be found in the Facebook Developers documentation and in the example files within the PHP SDK (http://github.com/facebook/php-sdk/)
To find out if the current viewing user has liked the page or not check out the signed request that Facebook passes to your app tab. It contains this and a lot more useful information http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/signed_request/
What you have is pretty much how the majority of companies are pushing forward with Facebook. They are driving up the Like count by forcing users to Like the page before getting to their goodies. There are lots of examples on the internet as to how to create a page which checks if the user likes the page. As you've not stated what programming language you are going to be tackling this in, it is going to be hard to point you in the right direction.
