Is it possible to post on user's timeline the post with custom template?
I have an facebook app, and want to post on user's timeline the post like this, or another custom html-template.
The idea is to share link with custom template or create post which links to my webpage.
For example like this
*If you click on map area you will be redirected to Endomodo Sports web page
Maybe it predefined by Facebook templates which depends on Open Graph actions and objects?

Typically when an application publishes to Facebook via the Graph API, Facebook includes a little link at the top of the news item indicating which application posted it, linking to the application's website.
I noticed recently that when Instagram shares a photo to Facebook the "Instagram" link at the top of the item points to the actual photo permalink instagram.com/p/whatever instead of just instagram.com.
Is it possible to set a custom URL per-post when publishing via the Graph API? Or some other mechanism? Or is this a special insider configuration for IG only?
I would like to make users to be able to post stories to their timeline but with no links to any resources. Using Facebook example:
I would like this post not to have any links. If someone using facebook on a browser clicks the image or the Cookie! title, they will be redirected somewhere. In my case, they are directed to an URL on my api which stores object data as meta tags from where FB scrappes the information (in this case, a blank page where the headers describe the Cookie! object). Is this even possible? I am developing an app for ios with no website, this is why I need to do this.
I have developed a website and I want users to be able to share their activity on facebook. I am able to post a simple message and an image using graph api, but I need to be able to post customized content, like Foursquare and other apps do. For example, when a Foursquare user shares his checkin on facebook, it shows a map and an info box which contains a few images of that place. How can I customize the content shown in the facebook post?
Could somebody please provide a detailed step-by-step example on how to do the following?
I need to be able to post new content from our website directly to our Facebook Business Page - Timeline as the owner/administrator or via our Facebook App.
We have an extranet which supports multiple sites/domains, but would like the content from these various sites published automatically to our central Facebook Business page whenever we had content to our own sites.
We have like buttons on our pages, that allows users to like and post to their own walls, but we want to publish to our own business wall.
Is this possible?
Create an RSS-feed containing the posts you would like to share on your Facebook page.
Go to your Facebook page and use the top search box to search for 'RSS Graffiti'.
Follow the onscreen steps and you're done.
If I have a Facebook photo, can I add a Facebook button in an application that when clicked inceases the likes for the photo?
The parameter for the like button is a url. What do I need to put there so when clicked, increases the like count for the photo on Facebook?
No this is not possible - it's always separate.
You could do this through graph API and make POST to <POST ID>/likes/ but the Like button plugin only works for Facebook pages or URLs off-Facebook.
It does not work with content on FAcebook.com
Via the Facebook Like Plugin, as you said is url so it will not work.
The Like Box is a social plugin that enables Facebook Page owners to attract and gain Likes from their own website.
Accoring to the documentation,
You will need to use the Facebook Graph API photo object by sending a HTTP request to photo_id/likes, where photo_id is the id of photo in question which you can also find from the photo link itself
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=[photo_id]
You will also need to have the user grant publish_stream permissions.
You can try to use the Facebook Graph API explorer to try it, though I have not been able to get it working.
