How to post a question in fuelphp forum? I already created an account but still can't see any "post a post" or "ask a question" on their site. Also, commenting is not allowed.
Just use the ⇒ New Question or Discussion button on the sidebar after logging in.
If you don't see it, it may be because of your membership requires manual confirmation, but I'm not sure I couldn't post before it, when I created my account. So, if you can't see this button, just be patient until your account is confirmed.

This is the weirdest.
I created a Facebook Page back in 2011, and I have Admin permissions. So far so good.
Few years ago (before Business Manager existed) I started running ads, and somehow, the page became a "Business" and took ownership of itself. When I open "Page Roles" where it says Owner shows the username of the page instead of my name.
Recently I started a Business Manager account and when I try to import my page, it says "A Page admin needs to approve your request for access.". I am lost on where that request is being sent. It's not in my email and not in the "Page Roles" section, like the Facebook doc says.
I am double sure the Owner of the page is the page itself, because the Business Manager gave me the ID of the "Business" that has to approve my request... and is the ID of my Facebook Page.
I've been searching the internet for days looking for an answer, but no luck. Also, I am trying to reach Facebook Support, but although I am a paying customer seems to be disabled for my account.
Any ideas on what the heck is going on, how to solve it or how to contact Facebook support?
I really need and appreciate some help here!
In 2015 I had an issue with my page (I also ran ads) and contacted gms-emea#fb.com (Facebook Global Marketing Solutions - EMEA). They replied within a week. I don't remember where I found this information, I just looked up my sent mails for you.
EMEA is probably for Europe and Middle East, but you can try anyway. They will probably redirect you to the correct support for your region.
Good luck with your issue!
I'm implementing a Facebook comment box on my website. It works for the most part. However, the two comments I made in the comment box do not show up on any computer except the one where I'm signed in to Facebook. But an associate has posted three comments, and hers have shown up just fine, so I know the box is connecting to Facebook and working.
Here's the thing: I am a new Facebook member (joined a month ago). I only joined for the purposes of this project. I have no friends on the site. So I am wondering if this is why my comments do not show. There is online speculation about this, but nothing conclusive or solutions.
My first comment does not even show up in my FB activity monitor. It was made while my post visibility was set to "only me." I did not tick the "also post to Facebook" box for this comment.
The second comment I made does show up in my FB activity monitor and is set to Public. This comment was made after I switched my post visibility to "friends" and ticked the "also post to Facebook" box. But it still does not show up in the comment box on the website, even though Facebook obviously knows it's there, since my activity monitor shows the URL of my website page.
My associate has been a member of Facebook for years and has tons of FB friends. So I am wondering if Facebook has a filter that catches new members like me who have no friends and begin to post comments. Note, however, that I have not posted comments anywhere else online so I can't imagine why a spam filter would be triggered aside from my newbie status. All I can figure is that Facebook doesn't let a new member's comments show off-site until they reach...what? A certain magic number of friends?
Here is the test page with the comment box. It is a Fancybox gallery in which the comment box is attached to the full-size image. Click on the thumbnail, and you will see the comment box attached to the full-size image. You will likely see the three comments from my associate (the singer, FYI--please refrain from posting her name for her privacy).

Do any experienced Facebook developers know anything about this phenomenon that might help me? I can't develop a comment box that I can't use myself, but there's no way to know how much Facebook activity is required to enable my comments to show up. And since the comment moderation feature is not working either, I don't know if the two issues are connected.
In case any other developer is asking this same question, I may have found the answer. The USA Today site says that in order for Facebook comments to be visible on their site, the user must have a profile photo and at least four friends. Their Q&A is almost two years old, so that could have changed, but that is the only hard information I've found on this topic online.
As you might know Facebook enabled this "reply on comment" feature recently. And if you have a page, you will find a checkbox in settings saying Allow replies to comments on my Page. This means that some pages could have turned this feature off.
So now I have to integrate Graph API requests in my website to post replies. I was wondering if there is a way to get if the page has enabled replies or not. Because if I post reply on a comment which does not support it, I'll get an exception.
To overcome this, I'd like to know a priori if the feature is enabled and do not allow to reply from my site if it is not.
I looked into FB docs, but couldn't find anything. Also there is a "can_comment" field in every comment object. Can it be used instead?
I've done my searching for the answer to this but it remains unclear. This could be a simple "possible" or "not possible" answer.
I have a site I'm creating that uses Facebook Connect (may or may not be relevant). I would like users to be able to create Facebook events based on events posted on this site. I'm familiar with the Facebook API and realize I could make my own form that would allows users to create a Facebook event... but I don't really think I want to do that work.
Is there a way I can point a user to Facebook's "create event" form but simply pre-populate some of the fields to help them along?
For example, say I wrote post about a free concert and had a button that said "make this an event on Facebook!". I would like that to link back to the fB event form with a title "Reggae Night 2010" and then from there the user could go on and create the event as they normally would. I don't see the point in doing my own form, validation, etc.
Thanks!
Firstly, obviously have a FB login enabled page and/or when the click your site's "click here to create event in Facebook" button, then have it check for whether the user is already logged into FB. Then use javascript to prepopulate the fields on the form on this page...
http://www.facebook.com/events/create.php
...with the info from your site's event.
That should be it!

EDIT: spankmaster79 - yes, that's what I said above.... have your code CHECK for WHETHER you're ALREADY LOGGED INTO FB first. (Please remove the -1, I'd appreciate it)
Currently on my website - I have a form which users use to post comments on the website. I want to add an extra check box - that says "Post to my facebook" wall.
So if they check that - the comment they post on my website - should also be posted on their website. They should not have to type the comment again.
How do I go about it?
You'll need to use connect as steve mentioned, specifically the FB.Connect.streamPublish method. I think what you really want to do post your link as a shared stream item, and use the user's comment as the user_message field. The attachment's description would probably be something like "I commented on this article".
Facebook Connect, which is largely a javascript-enabled connection between your site and Facebook, is the answer.
http://developers.facebook.com/connect.php
Not terribly difficult to implement, but you need to be savvy with Javascript. And if you've got your own user membership db (as you likely do), you'll need to wire up the links between your users and facebook id's.
I believe what you are looking for is the comments box, coupled with Facebook Connect it should accomplish what you want.
