Facebook Page Plugin Just Not Working - facebook

I am trying to implement the facebook page plugin into my website but it is just not working it just shows some simple text with my webpage name like a normal anchor link but nothing else. it also say file://connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js is not found in developer tools but when I punch in that address into the web browser it does find the link. Please help this is driving me up the wall

Apparently the facebook page plugin doesn't work the same as the twitter plugin. With twitter you can test your site locally and if you are connected to the internet the plugin will still pull through the data not so with the facebook plugin. How I managed to get it to work was by uploading my file onto my live server and it worked. I have no idea why this happens. Thanks for your help Dani

Open Facebook app with a link on a Website "fb://" url

Hi I'm trying to open the facebook app with a link from my webpage onto a specific page/profile which works great, "fb://profile/" (which is the same for both android and IOS but previously android required "fb://page/" which no longer works)
However if the phone does not have facebook installed this method does not work and tapping the link does nothing. Would anybody know if there is a way around this?
I'm kind of asking is there way in javascript if you can detect if facebook is installed and deep down i know the answer is no chance! Thanks.

Facebook SDK working in Editor, but not when I upload it to my Server

I am using the Facebook Sdk 5.0.3 Beta for a test proyect I'm working on Unity.
When I run my game in the editor, I can login, post to my feed, all without a problem. But I'm having trouble to deploy it to my server. I upload the output of the webplayer into my website, and when I go to play the game, nothing is happening when I click on the Facebook functionality...
Am I missing some steps here? Some key? I see in the website that there is an App Token... Maybe thats it?
Thanks for all the help
It sounds like you are trying to host the game on your own website. Facebook integration over the web will only work if your game is hosted by Facebook. This is related to this question: Cannot get the Unity web player to load the Facebook dll

Facebook iFrame App Will Not Display

I have searched through many pages on SO and cannot seem to find the answer I am looking for.
I have a website (created via CMS SiteCore) that I want to display via an iFrame on a Facebook page. however, due to some SSL issue (I still do not fully understand the issue, but I know it is related to SSL), Facebook will not display it.
I thought a possible solution would be dwonlaoding all of the content (HTML, CSS, Images, etc) and just recreate it in an HTML editor app for Facebook. Wrongo. The app does not let me upload images, and when I link to the images on my server, it hits this SSL issue again and will not display images.
I just want this page to display when clicking on the app. Here is the page:
http://www.pplweb.com/home/social/facebook/pplcareers/v2/careers_fb_v2_hj.ashx
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Yep you require a SSL Certificate can get them as low as $17 in Geotrust if need be or a dearer one in hostgator or godaddy as well and they will install it for if have them as a host... once attached to domain should show the site or webpage in FB within Iframes... Also as the previous poster need to have domains the same one using the iframes in FB as that is where you want it right displayed...
Hope helps

How can I make Facebook App page visible on mobile?

On my client's Fanpage, a third party app is running for a contest. How can I make this FB contest page available on mobile? I read the answer here:
http://facebook.stackoverflow.com/a/10833366/461119

Facebook SDK : Page Tab App returns not found in mobile Facebook App
I do not understand it clearly.
Is the query parameter ?ref-ts which we have to add at the end of URL?
What does it mean by "It helps in the browser but not the app itself."?
Will it help to see the App on mobile and click on it to go to the contest page on FB?
Also, I found this answer:
Works as advertised! Thank you. I was getting 404, but simply adding
ref=ts in my redirect URLs (I force users to use my app as a page tab)
fixed it! – Guillaume Boudreau
under the first link above but what is forcing users to use app as a page tab?
How can I set App as a page tab?
little bit confused.
I searched the web vigorously but did not get any clear explanation.
My observations about this issue:
Seems like it's an ANDROID issue, Work OK on iPhone's
Work with the link redirection services like Bit.ly (where the bit.ly link included the ref=ts)
I sent an email to Facebook for ANDROID developers.
Hi,
my iPhone's user colleagues can open links to page tab app with ref=ts
parameters but on Android we can't ;-(
The only way we've been able to do it is when the link to the app is
under a bit.ly redirection link
The problem is only when the links are open through the Facebook App.
Thanks
Let us know

You can access to your app using the next link https://apps.facebook.com/YOUR-APP-ID
In this way, you can access from a desktop or a mobile with no problem.

WURFL redirects facebook robot

I have WURFL on my page for redirecting mobile devices to mobile version of site. PCs are redirected to wordpress.
Unfortunately when i try to post link from my wordpress page on facebook it's generating image for link from mobile version, also link stands to be mobile version, rather than concrete post on worpress.
After clicking submit on facebook it redirects correctly to full version of page, but still the icon should be generated from full version page (same as link title).
How avoid redirecting to mobile version, when facebook services are sending request?
You may want to try using different detection software. I'm working on an Open Source C implementation of 51degrees.mobi's device detection solution at the moment. They've got links to open source PHP, ASP and Java solutions on there as well. It's pretty easy to set up and get working on your site.
