Good to see CCS is still alive and well.
Have two applications on the same site. Second app is Admin in a folder of main site.
Using different login variables for each. Different Cookie names.
Log out from main site, logs out Admin. Using link: logout_page.php?Logout=True
Tried changing variables.
You must create a new UserGroup for the Admin-pages only.

I used this guide to set up the apprequest dialog. More specifically, I am using sendRequestViaMultiFriendSelector to allow a user to select multiple friends to send the app request to. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/requests/
I set this up almost a month ago and it's been working fine on my local development environment. However, today, for whatever reason, it just hangs. I can see requests going to Facebook and all the thumbnails being returned for my friends, but it doesn't seem to get past the 'loading' image.
The other weird thing is that on all my deployment environments (i.e., staging, production), it works just fine.
I checked the Facebook App I use for local development, and I'm not too sure how this happened, but the app id and app secret had changed. I've updated them accordingly but still to no avail.
Any ideas what might be the issue?
I experienced the same issue. The following solved the problem:
Define a custom domain in the hosts file (on the local computer),
as described earlier in this thread.
Configure Visual Studio to use port 80. Don't use a custom
(or random port).
Update the facebook App settings with the custom domain.
If you use a custom port, like 4543, the facebook dialogs will hang.

make sure that your local development server and the production (or any other server you want to run the script from) runs on the same domain (or subdomain of it) as the app domain that you've set in the application setting (in facebook developers site, http://developers.facebook.com/apps )
Another possible workaround is to set display:'popup' in the FB.ui call. The described bug does not occur for this display method.
We just went live with a new Website that's using Sitecore. In the last couple of days, we have heard users complain that they are seeing the Sitecore login page on the live website for the links they bookmarked or just randomly. We are using a load balancer with 3 servers behind that load balancer. Also, the authoring server is behind a firewall and the authoring interface is only accessible via VPN.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks
Would it be possible to have a deny permission on sitecore shell directory for your main website? This way users cannot access sitecore from your main website.
You can still have sitecore enabled on your authoring server though.
This issue has happened to me a couple of times, and I figured out that at some point you must have logged in to sitecore from that browser. Can the users try accessing your website from another browser? It should work fine.
I haven't been able to figure out why this happens though, may be because of cookies.
Like techphoria414 said, opening the site in a new browser or clearing the cookies solves the problem.
But to add more detail to this, the cookie responsible for this is:
website#sc_mode with the value "edit" or "preview".
If the users with the problem have been editing the site or using the page editor mode, this cookie gets created. Even if they log out, sometimes the cookie stays there and when they try to access the live site, Sitecore answers with a 302 (redirect) to the login page because of this cookie.
They can either delete all cookies or simply this one.
I am using Selenium to do some testing bits and pieces so have created myself a test account successfully.
The problem that I'm having is that when I view most fan pages I can not see any of the applications that I would like to test. Accessing the application directly doesn't work either.
However, one of my fan pages does show one of the applications but the rest don't and I have no idea why.
I have double checked this on facebook.com/disney and again I can't see any of their application links.
Can test accounts even "see" applications? Do I need to modify my test user in some way?
You must assign test users to your application in the App Settings.

SAME APP WORK IN OTHER SERVER !!
Based upon the comments on the question above, what you need to do is to create a brand new app for the different domain names. So you can have specific URLs for each domain specified in each of the app's app settings. So if there are three domains, then I'd recommend three apps configured correctly to point to each of those three domains.
Background:
I am working on a legacy ASP.NET 3.5 Web Forms applications. The application allows users to buy a subscription to a 'white-label' website which is generated for them and they can customize it further. It uses forms authentication.
A typical use-case is that the user creates an account on our system, purchases a website, and then proceeds to customize their website. The URL they will use to edit their purchased website is something like this: https://www.example.com/EditWebsite.aspx. There are many other pages also within our website editing toolbox with other URLs.
Problem:
My team has now been tasked with allowing people to use one account to access multiple website subscriptions. This means that one authenticated user could be trying to access one of many websites to edit if they use the URL mentioned above. Our system can be made aware of multiple subscriptionIds per User but the website editor web app only has support for one subscription.
To clarify with a simpler example: this would be like if Google all of a sudden allowed you to view two different inboxes with one GMail account. How would the system know which one you were trying to access if the URLs were the same for both?
We originally wanted to change the application to use URLs like: https://www.example.com/[subID]/EditWebsite.aspx which would give us all the information we need to send the user to the correct website. We looked into URL Routing to accomplish this but it seems that we would have to change all of the web app's internal links to use the route config to generate the correct URLs. Maybe we have the wrong idea here but it seems like too much work for a legacy application.
Another potential solution we came up with was simply using our systems' control panel web app (where they click links to edit any of their websites) to set a session cookie which our edit website web app can read to know which website to bring up. This has the disadvantage that the pages would not be bookmark-able and you could not look at multiple websites at once in different tabs of the same browser.
Question(s):
Is there any other options we have not investigated or thought of? Is there any other web sites which allow for this kind of behavior; how do they handle it? Is URL Routing the right way to do this and we just need to take the plunge?
Any input is appreciated!
The solution we ended up using was adding a URL parameter to the link which specifies which website you are trying to edit.
https://www.example.com/EditWebsite.aspx?subID=123
This parameter is included in the links to 'Edit Website' from the page which lists all of a user's websites.
When present, this sets a session cookie for the user. If the request parameter is not present, the app looks for the cookie being set; this handles all the internal links within the application. if a cookie doesn't exist and the request parameter was not set, we just pick the authenticated user's first subscription from the list.
This isn't perfect but it has worked without issue so far. The only consequence it has caused is that a user cannot edit multiple websites in the same browser session, e.g. using multiple tabs. This hasn't resulted in any support issues yet though so it is pretty much a non-issue.
