AMP errors in web master tool - google-search-console

I have implemented AMP successfully for my webpages and google started indexing it, which I came to know via WebMaster tool. I am facing some issues which is present and disappears in short span of time.
Issue logged are:
User authored JavaScript found on page
The pages doesn't contain any script tags except schema.
This error is showing for few pages from 120 pages instead of following same
template. Below is the image link:
Have some more query:
I have observe different amp urls getting redirected to its original page when the same amp url is being used in Web Browser.
Is Google taking care of it or its on us to do the redirection?
I am planning to implement the sign in and share buttons on my web pages which will be using javascript. But if I do so, I do get validation error. So what is the right approach.
Can anyone please help me on this?

Please ensure that all script tags are of type application/ld+json. There should be no executable code in these script tags.
Redirection is something that you must be doing on your end. Google doesn't do any sort of redirection from AMP to non-amp pages if the URL is hit directly. In fact that URL schema that Google uses in their carousel is entirely their own, and just includes the path to your page inside it. E.g. https://cdn.ampproject.org/v/www.yoursitehere.com/path/to/article.html
Social sharing using Javascript inserted in the page is not allowed, as no Javascript is allowed. If you want to use social sharing, use a non-javascript implemention, or try out the amp-social-share

thanks for the response. As per the query which I asked
Please ensure that all script tags are of type application/ld+json. There should be no executable code in these script tags - I am not using any Script as of now except amp only

Understood
Social sharing using Javascript inserted in the page is not allowed, as no Javascript is allowed. If you want to use social sharing, use a non-javascript implementation, or try out the amp-social-share - Implemented Social Share and its working fine
Can we implement AMP for eCommerce sites where a lot of JavaScript, forms, plugins can be included? As of my knowledge AMP wants to keep it simple and thus restrict as many JavaScript, form tag is not valid only. So is there any chance we can implement AMP on eCommerce sites.

Facebook share ignores custom query string parameters

I try to share an URL that contains query parameter in FB.
Here is my share link
Sharing works but my custom query parameter is gone and replaced with facebook query parameters in the facebook timeline something like here
The same problem when FB.ui({ method: 'share',... is used.
It worked well on previous version of facebook sharing sharer.php but it's deprecated now and I have no idea how to make current share work.
We faced same problem. We instead used Feed Dialog that works fine. The irony is that if you read on facebook's developer's site Facebook is recommending us using Share Dialog in place of Feed dialog however, Share dialog does not work as expected.
Here is the link to get more information on Feed dialog
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/feed-dialog/v2.2
Personally i like Feed dialog more the share cause it gives you some additional properties to manage how dialog should appear
i assume you solved your problem in a different way already but i have found a solution for this. Just in case somebody else comes across this question.
Facebook strips the parameters only when it is more or less sure that the file is an php file.
So for http://example.com/?test=1
or http://example.com/index.php?test=1
the parameters are removed.
But if you make it look like a normal html file, it works:
http://example.com/whatever.htm?test=1
for example is posted with the parameters.
Of course you can use some simple mod_rewrite Rule to redirect the request to the original php file:
RewriteRule /whatever.htm(\?.*) /index.php%1
(rule is untested but should work hopefully)

Is it possible to add adverts to a custom Facebook Page Tab app?

I need to create a custom Facebook Page Tab app which will show an external site in an iframe. This need to have adverts on it but I'm not sure if this is possible as the site is hosted externally.
I'm not sure if I need to sign up to the Facebook Audience Network to get approved etc. either?
Any help or advice would be great.
Many browsers have this limitation of not allowing external sites to be shown in an iframe. Imagine the case when you are working hard to create a site and others show all your content in iframes. That is, naturally frustrating.
However, there is a candidate-solution: Let's suppose you create a page which sends a request to the other site and appends all the content into the body and head of your page. This is very much possible, so the solution is to:
Create a page in your site, let's call it outsider
In the server-side code of your outsider page send a request to the desired page to be shown
You will get the html of the page. Process it and include its content into the head and body of outsider. This includes:
3.1. Checking all the CSS to be reached, as the target page might refer to local CSS, which is unreachable locally at your end. Process the URLs of CSS files
3.2. Checking all the Javascript to be reached, as the target page might refer to local JS, which is unreachable locally at your end. Process the URLs of JS files
3.3. Apply the idea described in 3.1. and 3.2. for other resources, like images, until you are satisfied with the content of outsider
Create an iframe, having the source to point to outsider. outsider is inside your scope, so it should be shown
NOTE: If the site owning the target page does not like the possibility of you showing their content inside iframes, they might protect it by, let's say, having Javascript in their code, which checks whether the page is inside an iframe. Remove that code while processing the response to your request. If nothing else prevents you from showing the page in an iframe, then you should achieve success.

multiple facebutton button like with different values

Is it possible to have multiple og:title(etc) in a page?
I have 4 different products on same page (url: site/#theblock)
I want my users to share the product with the correct link on their FB.
I tried jquery but its not working.
Im using a wordpress cms.
Any idea how to do it?
Thanks
You need to use some server side technology to dynamically change the og tags based on query string parameters. Hash tags will not work since they are only used by the browser and are not sent to the server.
The reason to set the og tags server side is because Facebook's scraper does not run JavaScript and therefore your server needs to make the correct tags upon serving the page.

Events triggering loading content on Facebook's timeline

I am working on Apache Nutch modification project. We already swapped Nutch's original module with ours built using HtmlUnit. I need to download whole Facebook user site (ex. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002517096832), which is going to be parsed using our own parser. Unfortunately Facebook is using mechanism called BigPipe (http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=389414033919). That's why most of current website is hidden in <.!-- --> tags.
Usually when we scroll down Facebook page, new content is being unpacked every time we are about to hit bottom of the page. I have tried to use Javascript that scroll my htmlPage (HtmlPage object from HtmlUnit project), but finally I realized that scrolling is not triggering loading new content on Facebook user site.
How can I check, what event on page triggers loading content on current Facebook page? Maybe I should approach problem from different side, for example try to extract BigPipe "things" on my own? Have you ever did that?
Before dealing to your question … what kind of project are you trying to build there?
Since Apache Nutch is an open source web-search software, I think you are trying to build some kind of search engine, that scrapes Facebook user profiles/feeds to get data and make it searchable on some third-party website?
Well, that would be a violoation of Facebook Platform Policies:
I. Features and Functionality
12. You must not include data obtained from us in any search engine or directory without our written permission.
So, do you have that written permission?

How does facebook's Share a link feature work?

I'm trying to implement a feature like that where a user inputs a url and when displaying that url I want to have a custom display (an embed object if it's a video from youtube, a thumbnail if it's an image link, title and excerpt of body if it's a normal link).
How can such a feature be realized?
There is a new idea called oEmbed that a few sites support (Flickr, Vimeo and a few others) that addresses this problem. oEmbed site
Otherwise, just check the site against a list of ones you pick and then pull out the relevant bits to construct an embed link.
I liked the idea of oEmbed a lot but unfortunately it doesn't has that much adoption yet.
oohEmbed tries to solve this issue by building oEmbed for many websites.
For the feature to work, it needs the server's interaction where I believe the following scenario is how it works
Assume that we have the site humanzz.com and that it provides such feature
A user enters a url on the humanzz.com's webpage and presses a button like facebooks' preview button
An AJAX call is made to a dedicated page on humanzz.com
humanzz.com does calls the remote website and gets its data
The AJAX call now returns the page's data (oEmbed JSON object)
This involves so much server's overhead.
I really wanted to do it using JavaScript as the server's role was only to bypass "Same Origin Policy"'s restrictions.
oohEmbed allows bypassing the server's step by specifying a callback parameter to oohEmbed so that the JSON object returned is passed to a callback function on your page.
An example illustrating this is as follows
Add a script tag dynamically to your page
< script type="text/javascript" src="http://oohembed.com/oohembed/?url=http%3A//www.amazon.com/Myths-Innovation-Scott-Berkun/dp/0596527055/&callback=myCallBack">< /script>
This would result in executing myCallback(oEmbedJSONObject) which is great.
The problem with that solution is you still have to have a fallback for websites that don't have oEmbed representations.
For the embedded things, I have been using auto_html ( https://github.com/dejan/auto_html) with great success (vimeo, youtube, images) and even added soundcloud myself. But I am still looking for a "thumbnail" generation with an image and text facebook-like.
I guess you have to construct it by yourself by manually parsing the kind of URL you get.
If it is an image url, well then you just have to rescale it and in case the user clicks on it, then handle that by opening the original one somehow.
If it is a link to some youtube video, then you have to take a look at how the embedding of Youtube videos works. You can just copy the code that is provided by Youtube itself, and then exchange the parts with the URL to the video with the URL you got from your user.
I did never implement something like that, but I assume it should work somehow like this.
