I see many Facebook Instant Article can do Horizontal swipe. However, I couldn't find that feature. Is it because I have not publish my articles yet?
Thanks in advance.
Publish first your article. The most popular instant article post is on the list when you horizontally swipe it.
Horizontal swipe will be enabled by Facebook algorithm which is obviously not published.
Meaning you can't really control when or how it's shown.
See the following note taken from here:
Note: Horizontal swipe for more articles is separate from the Related Articles units discussed here. All articles in the horizontal swipe selection are chosen algorithmically. At this time publishers do not have control over the articles in that section.

I'd like to make a sidebar float on a Github wiki (i.e. so that as I scroll down the page it will stay visible). Does anyone know how to to this? I don't think you can use CSS or jQuery as per this post.
I sent a message to Github and got this response:
It's currently not possible to do that, but I can see how that'd be
handy. I can't make any promises regarding implementation, but I'll
pass on your feedback for the team to consider!
I've been re-reading this page and it just seems so vague on how to help me. I have a newsletter button I am trying to track clicks on through facebook pixels but facebooks documentation and lack of proper testing is frustrating me.
Here is the documentation I am reading
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-pixel/events-advanced-use-cases/v2.8
If I read this correctly, to track a single button I have to install code in three different sections? They don't specify the sections either, so I'm assuming they go in the order they displayed it (viewContent goes in the header, button id goes in the body of the page, and the final fbq tracking goes in the footer).
If anyone has a more simple approach to this or can explain this in a better way I would greatly appreciate it. Adding code in three different sections and creating multiple heads just to track different things on different pages seems like a lot more work than I need to be doing.
Thanks in advance
Using the FB-Share-Button posts a Message on FB which contains my Company-Name in the last line. Sadly I cant post the screenshot, because I havent enough reputations.
Is it possible to disable this? Or how can I hide this information?
Thank you for your support!

Apperently there is no way to hide the company-name. But there is a solution to change the information. It is taken from the html-meta-tag "author". So any changes in this tag have effect on the shown words.
Facebook caches this information for some circumstances, changes may not appear in time.

According to the docs, the "Add to Timeline" button will be deprecated as of August 2012. Unfortunately, there is no guidance on how to achieve the same functionality. Perplexingly, the Open Graph tutorial uses the button (which seems unwise given that it will be broken in a couple months). Since I'm writing a new implementation of actions/timeline right now, I'm not going to include something that I'll have to delete in a couple months. Everything works fine with AJAX and the PHP-SDK and only two issues remain unresolved (which I imagine the button would handle):
No way to tell if an action is posted already. I have "unique" enabled already but I have no way to hide the "Add to timeline" option if it's already posted.
No nice visual. I could render the current (soon to be deprecated) button and steal the image but I'd prefer to use something that will look the same as other sites and make users comfortable that they know what will happen when they click.
Does Facebook have a replacement for this button? Or are all timeline posts supposed to be taking place silently after an initial permission grant? I thought Facebook encouraged more user approval for Timeline actions--where is that control supposed to go? To third party UI elements? Doesn't that undermine some of the power of the Facebook ecosystem--the fact that it's the same buttons with the same behavior everywhere on the web? It's kind of frustrating the way it's presented now--pushing you in one direction in the tutorial only to tell you that the feature will be deprecated within months. I've mostly given up hope for problem #1 but is there an official non-deprecated button that will give me a nice comforting visual?
Also, are there other features that this button does that are being/have been transitioned to other plugins?
EDIT: Does it make sense to link the "Like" button to a timeline event? It seems like semantically that would make sense but there doesn't seem to be any built-in way to do it.
If I want a single page turn animation, not book style with two pages show and not the sticky notes ripping off a a page can I use a built in animation like page curl or do I have to use leaves?
(The reason I ask is with a Google search I've found plenty of conflicting information.)
I would use leaves if that is what you are looking for. The reason being is that Apple's has custom transitions that are for private use only - see the following question: List of pushViewController Transitions.
Page Curl also appears to be using private APIs. This article recommends using leaves to get the Page Curl animation. Good luck!
