I have an application created in facebook, along with the integration for my existing website. When users on my website use the facebook connect button and receive the facebook message that "WebsiteABC" will receive the following info: your public profile, friend list and email address," I need to get my logo updated in the box within that pop up window.
I'm looking at all of the settings within the app at developers.facebook.com, but cannot find anywhere to upload that logo. Can someone help please?
Thanks

I have a referral page with a modal where users can send a share link to their friends. I need to implement the following flow:
a user clicks on facebook messenger icon and their messenger opens up where the user can choose someone of their contacts to send a share link to.
Looks like this is a solution for me but I can't clarify some questions https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/discovery/m-me-links/
I don't have an app and a page, I just need a user to open their messenger and paste and send a text to their friends.
Is this the same flow for web, iOS, Android?
Can I preload the text I want the user to share so that it will appear in the dialog with the contact the user has chosen (in some messengers it is possible)?
FB has 2 different APIs for solving this issue: for web and for mobile. They are very similar and described here:
web https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/send-dialog/
mobile https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/messenger/web
In two words, you need to add a FB script to activate FB JS SDK and then call a method to share a link.
I have a simple Facebook App that I use to allow users of my website to login with Facebook. Recently I added a basic custom story via the open graph API, e.g.
Nick plays a mixtape via anexample.com
The custom story appears in my stream as expected, however when I click the anexample.com link on the story I get the following error and cannot access the actual Facebook App page:
Sorry, the details for anexample.com cannot be displayed because the app is
misconfigured.
What is strange, is that the application redirects at
https://www.facebook.com/games/?app_id=AN_APPLICATION_ID
despite the fact that the app is not registered as a game.
Has anyone else faced this behaviour?
Thanks,
On tapping on the App link, you could navigate it in one of the two possible ways
Any FB page: Add the page in Advanced settings of your App.
A website: Add a web platform
I'm basically trying to put all the functionality of this website: http://greenthumbweather.com/
into Facebook via the "website" platform.
I've started the app process in facebook and I entered the URL as website platform (attached image).
However, when I go to preview the "app", I just get a link to my website in the top right (attached image).
Do I have to recreate the entire functionality of the website within Facebook? Or can I just port the functionality into a Facebook app? I really would like users to be able to visit the website within Facebook, where it would grab their location information and customize my website based on their latitude/longitude.
Thanks for any help!
You can just port your website to facebook app but i think that depend on your desired output. Your website can also be ported to a canvas app.
I cannot find any information on this in the developers guide. I'm setting up a facebook app so users can connect and publish content to their feed. I want to create a page that looks like this: https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/houzzapp
On the right side you will see the two blue buttons, one that says Visit Website, the other Send to Mobile. These are the functions that I want as far as the facebook app is concerened. Does anyone know how to do this or can point me to some documentation or a tutorial?
This is Facebook's App Center.
In order to get your App on Facebook's App Center you have to go through a Approval which you can review/edit and submit via Your App -> App Details.
Once all necessary Fields and Pictures are uploaded, you can Submit App Detail Page.
Pointing out the Specific questions about Facebook's App Center:
Visit Website button: Will use the link you entered in your Basic Settings under Website with Facebook Login
Mobile Web: Will use the mobile version url you entered in your Basic Settings under Mobile Web
You know the publishing apps on Facebook: "Published via ____".
I've see a few times where when you click on the app name, it goes directly to the provider's website? (For example, if I clicked on it, it would direct to www.mywebsite.com)
For the life of me, I can't figure out how they make that work. Can't find a setting in the developer app.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
This is just done via a facebook page or application. If you create the facebook application, and post content via the application, it will automatically show the "Published via ..." at the bottom.
What it does is redirect you to the application page (so FB can track the number of clicks) then it will auto redirect to the website url page specified in the application settings.
Here is a tutorial
