I've got one question. I want to add plugin Facebook comments to my commercial website, for my users. They will able to write opinion and comments for my work. If I'll add plugin, should I pay anything for facebook or facebook comments plugin on my website is illegal?
P.S. I haven't got Faceebook Developer account.
should I pay anything for Facebook
No, Facebook Social Plugins are free, but must be used under Facebook policies.
facebook comments plugin on my website is illegal
No, why do you think that? it's not illegal unless you break the policy
I haven't got Faceebook Developer account.
basically you don't need a one, but you should verify your account, create an app and use it insights, in other yes, you need a developer account again, free of cost
So go ahead and grab your code

I have a page and every time I post an update, I have to ask my Social Media team to share it from their personal accounts to increase the reach. I wish to automate this process by making a facebook app.
The app is supposed to share every new post automatically from accounts of those who signed up for the app.
I tried to look up for such apps, but couldn't find any. Is there some constraint that doesn't allow the existence of such apps?
If no, how can I create one? I have fair coding skills but haven't worked on developing a facebook app before.
Thanks.
Autosharing/Autoposting is not allowed, prefilling is not allowed either.
Platform policy: https://developers.facebook.com/policy/
That being said, publishing on a user wall is explained in the API reference, including example code: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/user/feed#publish
I've done a little searching and was wondering if there is a way to link a users account in our web app with their social media accounts they choose to link (facebook, twitter, etc). i.e. when they log into our web app they are auto logged into facebook, twitter, etc?
I see facebook has an api to login to our web app using their facebook book account but I want it to work the other way around, I want them logged into facebook when they log into their account via our web app.
Thanks,
Ryan
It is definitely possible-from your question I assume you would like to pull data and make actions on behalf of a user? If so, you will need the offline_access permission as well as all the other permissions you will need (check out the list here to see exactly which ones you require). Then, you can trigger a script on your server that tell facebook as soon as the user is logged in to your site, to log in your application as the user as well.
NOTE: You might be going about this in the wrong way. I would advise that you specify a bit more details on what exactly you need the user to be logged in for, and I can (probably) provide you with a decent answer.
EDIT: In response to your question in the comment, Ryan, here is my answer:
You need to divide this problem into 2 different situations-one: your company wants you to write all the code from scratch and don't use what facebook has to offer, in which case you should create a custom login script that enables your users to use their facebook account as the Actual user account in your web app. This is the best solution in my opinion, and is supported by the ever-so-awesome Jeff Atwood. Here's a link to how to do just this, and a tutorial about this also.
Or your company is comfortable with using Facebook's Social Plugins.
Then you should focus on Like Button & Comments : These social plugins are the best way to enable people to create social experiences if they're already logged in.
How to post on facebook account wall when any blog post made from wordpress.
I allready tried with various wordpress plugin like "wordbook", "wordbooker" etc but none of them working fine........ any idea or alternative way?
Use the Twitter Tools plugin and then link your twitter account to your Facebook account. I use it all the time, plus you get the added benefit of Twitter.
I'm writing a plugin for that matter, you can check out the development version right over here: http://kovshenin.com/public/facebook-feeder-alpha.tar.gz
It doesn't have a funky user interface, but it does post stuff to Facebook assuming you have a facebook developer account and a facebook app registered. Look at the posts on my Facebook profile: http://facebook.com/kovshenin (ones marked via kovshenin.com) - they're generated via this plugins.
P.S. It doesn't to that automatically, but you can send it to FB when the post is published. Shouldn't require much time to automate it, but I'd like to customize things before sending anything anywhere.
Hope this helps. Cheers.
P.S. PHP programming skills required to use this plugin.
I was wondering if there is a way to link your facebook account to another website, so you don't have to log in every time just to post a status update.
I'd like to link the profile when they sign up and then have it just be there to connect to whenever.
CLARIFICATION: Sorry I typed this fast.. here's what I'd like to do.. build an application where you sign up for that application.. you also have the option to link your facebook profile to this account. If you decide to link it, you can post updates, etc to your facebook profile.
You will never have to log into (connect) to facebook again after you link it to the app.. all you need to do is log into the third-party application.
Thanks,

Need clarification. You can link logging into another website to Facebook. What exactly are you trying to do?
you question, to be honest isn't very clear, but maybe you need facebook restful api so check http://developers.facebook.com and look for it.
bye
I'm starting to work on a site that will be strongly connected to a corresponding Facebook app. I want the contents to be free for all to view, but only registered users will be able to edit it (quite similar to serverfault, actually).
Since I think that most of my users will be logged in to facebook, I would really like to use their facebook credentials as to login to my site - the same way Open-Id registration works here.
Can this be done?
Thanks,

Yes, this is one of the things provided by Facebook Connect. There is a wiki full of documentation - start at "Authenticating Users with Facebook Connect".
