Facebook breaking changes July 2013 ('page_id' -> 'target_id') - facebook

The 'page_id' field in the checkin FQL table. Please use 'target_id' instead.
I understand what it means, but I don't know what I have to meet the requirements of this ('page_id' -> 'target_id'). I was searching in my code and I can find directly query to this field. I looked to Facebook SDK as well, but I cound't find it neither. I'm search for HTML, javascript, but I still can't find it.
I used in my app retriving user datas in scope - email,user_likes,publish_stream and checking if user like specified page.
Maybe someone know what has to be changed?

I am facing the same issue to all of my apps. I am not using FQL at all. As I get it it's just a notice and if you update your app details you wont have a problem. Just tick the July 2013 option and you are OK.
If anyone has a different solution please write it here.

Did facebook changed something to sharer/sharer.php?

I've been using facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php to redirect users to facebook with a pre filled message using the parameter quote but it doesn't seem to work anymore.
We can still go to facebook to share a link but the message is not pre filled anymore. It still worked a while ago, did Facebook (Meta ?) changed anything recently ?
Thanks in advance.
https://developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/734680371318112/:
I got an update from the product team, the quote feature has been deprecated, we will update the document to reflect the change.

So this has been removed, only the documentation has not been updated to reflect this yet.

our fb comments plugin integration is not generating any fb activity feed entries..?

i'm not extremely involved in all the possibilites of a facebook integration - but the code configurator/params the comments plugins support, there is not very much room for mistakes/customization.
So i'm actually really wondering myself why our comments plugin is not generating any facebook activity?
i can write a new comment on our website just now:
and afterwards i can check my activity feed and still, the last entry is from march 18.
i can't find anything about that, there is no config param or anything to control this as far as i know or the docu tells me.. and i tought that this is really a thing that we should have out of the box..right?

ColdFusion - OAuthException - This authorization code has expired. [code=100]

I am having a go at trying to get the Facebook API SDK for ColdFusion working.
https://github.com/affinitiz/facebook-cf-sdk
I have followed all the steps and it seems to work well (using only server-side login).
However, if I leave the page for say, an hour, when I return and refresh the page (which was showing my profile name and friends list) it shows up with an error that I am unable to get rid of, unless I clear the cookies.
Is there something I am missing with this FB login? Am I meant to be checking against something manually in order to persist the session?
Looking at my cookies, I have the following stored:
fbm_155030275875
fbsr_155030275875
CFID
CFTOKEN
It's all new to me, so I'm a bit lost. I can't see anything in the docs for the SDK about this and Googling the error brings nothing.
I have attached a screenshot of the error.
I'd appreciate any help you can offer!
Thanks,
Michael.
I'm not familiar enough with that particular project, but in general, your code should be requesting the various Graph API calls, and requesting the token as necessary. If the token has expired, you request a new one. I'd expect the facebook-cf-sdk product to do this, but again, I'm unfamiliar with it.
Good news is, the Facebook Graph API is just a series of HTTP calls. See my talk at NC DevCon for an example of logging in and making some graph calls: (a bit long; go to about the 1:42:00 mark)

These don't answer your question 100%, but they may be a good starting point for you.
Ok, I figured out how to solve this issue using a solution someone provided on Github. I just wanted to post this here in case someone else encountered the issue and wasn't sure how to solve it. In my case however, after I applied the solution from that post was I need to do a page refresh. Link below.

Phoca Gallery: Error with Intergration of Facebook Albums in Gallery

So, same Problem like the Guy before and alot more people on the web, but this time i try to make a good discription. My english is not perfect, but please realise that i really try to tell you the details here.
There is a Function in the Famous Phoca Gallery Plugin for Joomla to integrate whole Facebook-Albums into the Gallery-System and show them next to the local ablums and pictures of the website in the same style and css.
here the detailed description by the deveopener of phoca gallery, how this integration normaly works, please look here:
http://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-gallery-component/443-displaying-facebook-albums
So, easy to tell: U have to create an facebook-application, give phoca galery the usernamem & pw, App-ID and secret-nr and it gets the rest of the needed data automatically via facebook.
Then, you have to create an new category inside of the phoca galerysystem and define the Facebook-Album you want as source. this is finally the step, that doesnt work with my page. U have to select the choosen facebook user, this is working, but if I try to select an fb-album of this user, i just get following error:
Facebook API Failure: Unknown method (3)
Normaly, on most Systems its working, but there are a few systems, where its just not working. Have a look on this forum, a lot of people have the same error like me.
http://www.phoca.cz/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=23126
Developeners of Phoca tried to fix, but finally they started to tell the people, they should ask the developeners of facebook, because since now nobody was sucessfull to fix or just find the error.
So, this is now the try to tell u about this problem, maybe there is a way
Hopefully u are not just closing this, if anybody knows the problem and and have a fix, PLEASE tell
Not sure about phoca gallery, but I've developed a plugin for showing your Facebook albums (fanpage only) into your Joomla site. Thousands of people are using it successfully on their sites. It also has a WordPress version.
BTW, It's not free.

Need help - FB Like button does not post to wall

Hello fellow community members,
I was unable to find a helpful answer, so I will give this a try: I recently developed a website that has a FB "Recommend" (same as "Like") button implemented. I have never dealt with this before, hence my complete lack of knowledge.
Now, I implemented the code the FB developer's Like page (--> http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/) creates correctly into the website (both the script and the DIV-tag, yet something that is not automatically generated seems to be missing and needs to be added for the button to work correctly. It currently does not post to the FB wall.
Upon doing a debugging check, I received the following results: [...]
Unfortunately, I have no clue what to do with that data. How and where exactly in the HTML code do I implement those missing TAGS and PROPERTIES? Any help would be highly appreciated...
Kind regards & many thanks in advance, :-)

It looks like you're missing the Open Graph meta tags. Those go into the head of your page.
Facebook has a generator to help you create the tags, but you'll need to add them into your markup.
