I find that my app which is recently created(about 5hrs) is missing altogether(with no trace of any existence) and i did not get any notification (or email) from fb which we generally get if we forget to add pivacypolicy to FB App.
It was a sweepstake kind of app where user is asked to participate in the contest by submitting his emailid and phone number. and his participation is posted on his wall with a link to app(using feed post, and link is given out using link parameter in me/feed post).
we posted a status on our client's wall including the app link(even post is missing now).
May i know a place or link where i can find a reason for my app's restriction as i followed all the rules of fb to the best of my knowledge.
Here is the app id if it may help 675743852468369.
Thank you in advance.
Just check your email if any query send to you by facebook because it may be spamming that continously posting or something like that or you have to read facebook policy and updation.

We have a platform where users get logged in with Facebook. Now on customers demand, we want to provide a feature where we will request logged in users profile link at the time of login via user_link permission and user can share that link to anyone with just one tap. And on the other end, the other user who will receive this link will able to see (on facebook app or on Web) the sender's profile and if interested they can get connected.
But the issue is, I am not able to see user profile got as user_link. Its seems like I can only use this link if he or she is already my friend. If so then how can I implement this feature in my app? also if I am wrong at any point please correct me.
Its seems like I can only use this link if he or she is already my friend.
That’s exactly what the documentation says, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/user:
link: A link to the person's Timeline. The link will only resolve if the person clicking the link is logged into Facebook and is a friend of the person whose profile is being viewed.

You can’t; Facebook has deliberately designed this feature with this restriction, to better protect people’s privacy.
I wonder How this Facebook API Program Capture Visitors Name and Email without Permission. I visited a Facebook page today and found that my name and email automateically appear when I click on the post image. I guess they are doing it with the latest Facebook SDK.
This is the post I am referring to.
This is the page about their API Script.
Can anyone tell me where I can setup the same using PHP. I could not locate any information in Facebooks developer page. Highly appreciate your feedback.

Looks like Lead Ads, the docs are full of example code:

We are having a problem with the review of our app which needs FB user's authorization to publish a post to his wall (publish_actions permission rejected by FB reviewer). The post is a promo offer developed by some retail store which is generated on server and needs to be put on user's wall.
We are seeing this in many cases by apps that are approved by FB but the reviewer has stated this: 'Make sure the user message area is not pre-filled in any way by the app otherwise the submission will be rejected. This includes hashtags, URLs, and any other text not written by the user.’
What we see in many cases is that the message is pre-filled with text from a publisher so that when its posted to the wall you see an image with some text including a link to the FB page of the publisher. Does anyone know why we are not allowed to do the same?
Prefilling is not allowed. It does not matter if you see it in another App, it´s still not allowed. If you believe an App does it, report it to Facebook.
Also, the user profile is not a place to advertise, each and every single post to the user wall must be written and authorized by the user. You can only add a link with Open Graph tags to it. See the docs for information about all the possible parameters: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/user/feed#publish
I was wondering if its possible to get one's facebook profile (to be exact,'profile url') through their API?
I need an api to get fb profile link using a matching email address. I dont want to login to facebook though.I was trying to search for this but it seems you need to log in to facebook to get that.
Any idea or is it feasible?
You need ID of the concerned user which can't be achieved without using the Facebook Login, since Facebook login is the starting point to get the current user info (/me).
Search API could have helped you since you have the email ids of users, but unfortunately this api doesn't support user search with email!
So, answer is simple- NO, you cannot get the ID (profile link) of the user without using the facebook login.
Not that I can think of. Facebook's Graph API gives you some public info but that info given depends on the users Facebook's settings on what is public or not. You could maybe get some users profile picture but not others, making it not a very viable option for practical use. Hope that helps
My aim is to make a facebook fanpage for a client who wants his blogposts to automatically show up on his fanpage.
I've already read several posts here in the forums. I've tried several methods to auto-publish wordpress posts to a fanpage in facebook.(notes, ...) The last method I used was making an app and using the "Simple Facebook Connect" plugin for wp.
I got quite confusing with this. I have an app called "myClient" and a fanpage called "myClient". If I publish a blogpost, it automatically shows up on the fanpage but "via myClient". Is there a way on get rid of the facebook app? I don't want to show up the via-sentences because the app is just the connection between wp and fb and has no content at all (the content is on the fanpage)
Hopefully you can help me with that!
Thanks in advance.
Whenever you want to publish something on Facebook, you need a Facebook Application as it's the "trusted" connection between your source and Facebook (this is why you have the App Secret and all the authentication/authorization process..etc).
So, How to auto-publish wordpress post to facebook fanpage without a facebook app?
You can't! But what you can do is changing the App name to something the Client would agree on (and not being "already taken", of course!).
You can use the notes facility available. It is updated when the RSS address you provide updates.
Actually there is a way to get rid of the Facebook App - by using third parties automatic Facebook publishing tools like ZapRobot - in that way you actually lean on someone else's FB API APP. Note that then you give "manage_pages" permission to the third party. The process should be:
1) Register with ZapRobot - this is a Facebook login, you give them posting rights to your page
2) Define a job that posts A LINK (ignore their categories) while the link is pointing to the RECENT wordpress item on your blog
Good luck :-)
