When using the Facebook Page Plugin code generator, it asks for Facebook Page URL. Whenever I put the correct URL in I get an error.
For the life of me, what is the correct Facebook page URL? I'm just going to my Facebook home page and coping the URL and its giving me this error.
You need to put a Facebook fan page not a personal profile.
facebook.com/facebook <- fan page
facebook.com/zuck <- personal profile
For personal profiles use the https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/follow-button

I have a page on facebook and i want to get my page access token so that i could use it to post ob my page from a mobile application or web application using the facebook sdk for C#.
I think the whole idea would be:
user will go to my webpage.
user will then login to facebook.
user will be taken back to my page with the his page's access token.
i will save this access token and then use it to post on his page on his behalf.
Right now i am not sure whether these are the right steps or not and if i am right, how can i make a facebook login page where user can use?
EDIT:
I found some answer here: Programatically log in to facebook and post from server side
do i need to create a facebook app for that?
I'm trying to build a Facebook app, but everytime I click in authorize, I got an error.
In the code, I'm calling the Facebook API like this:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?
client_id=MY_APP_ID
&display=popup
&redirect_uri=http://www.my-url.com/823/
&scope=user_about_me
But instead of authorizing the user, the browser redirect to this URL:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/permissions.request
And I always get this error:
SECURITY WARNING: Sharing the above URL with anyone is the same as
sharing your Facebook password with them - it will give them access to
your Facebook account. Despite what you may have been promised, you
will not receive cash, a gift card, or free airline tickets in
exchange for this URL.
My Facebook Settings Page:

What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated! :)
PS: I just tried to change the "redirect_uri", from my site's URL(www.my-url.com/823/) for the canvas page(apps.facebook.com/my-app), and it works.
But I want it to redirect to my site, not for the canvas page.
I had another application that was removed by Facebook last week. The domain I'm trying to use is the same of that old app removed. Is it possible that Facebook put the domain in a black list? Or am I just missing something?
Have you tried to replace the « Website with Facebook Login » by the original URL? (Without the example path (823))
By the way, don't forget to complet app domains.
The problem was that my app was removed by Facebook. When this happens, Facebook puts the site domain in a black list.
The solution was to redirect to the canvas page.
Let's say i have a Facebook page tab (iframe) app that i want to connect to multiple Facebook pages, so users can enter the app through more then 1 Facebook page. Now my question is; is there a way to see if they visited the page tab app through Facebook page A or through Facebook page B?
Thanks in advance.
yes u can
use page signed request using this you can get facebook Pageid and userid
for page signed request documentation here
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/signed_request/
How do you make a facebook application which you can search for on facebook and by clicking on it, it redirects you to a different website. An example is if you type in 1-800-Flowers and click on the App - it redirects you to the website http://ww30.1800flowers.com/template.do?id=template4&page=7900&conversionTag=true#flowers_facebook/offer straight away. Is this easy to do? If so, how? Thanks in advance
You can start by creating a app on Facebook and point it to a page on your website. On the page, add some JS code to pop the user out of Facebook and send them to your homepage: e.g.:
window.top.location = 'http://yourwebsite.com';
However, remember that it's against Facebook Terms to have an app simply redirect to a website. Your website must be Facebook Connected or use Facebook API in some way to enhance the user's experience.
I`m an admin on a facebook fan page. The problem is that when I try to create an app for facebook fan page, facebook redirects me to my profile, and thus I will be creating an app for myself and not the facebook fan page.
Is there a way to do this?
I need to do this so I would get app ID and app Secret for facebook fan page.
Kalvin Klien, please don't fall over getting out of bed, but you will need to use a user profile to create apps, not a page profile. It is documented here:
Create new app from Business account
Create a Facebook APP goes in circles back my page
Can company page accounts create apps?
If you want facebook to tell you, please
1) Log into your facebook account
2) Switch to using your facebook page (aka business page)
3) Go to: https://developers.facebook.com/apps
4) Read error message that says:
To access this page, you'll need to switch from using Facebook as your
page to using Facebook as yourself.
