I have searched high and low for an answer without any luck.
Here is my situation:
I have set up fb comment box on my website.
When anyone makes on comment on my website, I am notified in my personal profile, the notification takes me straight to the comment moderator tool, where I can see the comment and and find out which page on my website has been commented.
All that seems to be working ok.
What is not working is, when I reply to a comment made on my website, the person that made the original comment is not receiving a notification of my reply.
Is this a function that is not available?
If it is available where can I find the information to implement it ?
If people are not receiving notifications of my replies, one they could think that I am rude, second it defeats the whole object of creating engaging threads on the website.
Thank you so much, I have been trying for months to find this answer.

This is still a problem as of 2017. It seems that the only way is to tag a person in a reply for her to receive a notification.

OK so im just gonna ask this question, as I am at the end of the rope, with hopes someone out there will have some advice.
I have installed the Woocommerce Follow Up Emails plugin on my site, and for the life of me I cannot get it send the email.
The settings I have are:
Trigger: 3 days after the order total is above $1.00
Setting: Customer recieves the email once
There is nothing in the "scheduled emails" of the plugin showing up, however and this is the part that throws me off, in the Tools>Scheduled Actions of the wordpress dashboard i get multiple entries of the below:
which tells me that it the emails are being scheduled but are not being sent out (even though it says, action complete). I have checked the WPMail log nothing, i have checked Cpanel Email Tracking and theres nothing. I have a WP Cron plugin installed that tells me it is functioning correctly.
Does anybody have any ideas/suggestions that i could do or check that I havent done already? Is there something I'm missing?
Any help will greatly be appreciated.
P.S, I purchased the plugin from a third party site and cant ask Woocommerce for support without paying for subscription (which i will do as my absolute last resort)
The plugin works fine on my side, although it is very basic in its functionalities and you reach super quickly its limitations.
I'd suggest you buy the plugin from WC. They tend to have special offers of 30-50% off few times a year. Their support is typically very good and has a live chat so you get answers often directly.
Hope you got it figured out by now.
This is not exactly a programming related question but it is closely related to developing so I think it is pertinent.
I´ve been charged in my work with developing an app with access to Facebook Messenger. I needed a Facebook Account and I didn´t want to use a personal one (and I don´t use Facebook anyway) so I created a new gmail account to use it to sign up in Facebook, as user and as a developer.
After a couple of days of work, having created the page, my webhook, done some tests, etc., and investing a good deal of work hours, my account appeared as disabled.
I have to admit a didn´t use much of real info on this account (I´m kind of allergic to disclosing personal information unless mandatory), and the account was new so I thought that maybe that was the reason (they don´t give you any).
So I tried again a second time with an account I had been using for years (just for logging in some sites, not much of real information there neither, as I say I don´t really use Facebook), and after a couple of days, same results, locked account.
I can´t stress enough I don´t use the API extensively, I just send some messages to another user I have added as one of the application developers so I can test (that other account is never blocked, by the way). It´s not like I am sending hundreds of messages or anything like it. And by the way, I have never been blocked while I was doing something (so I could indentify my wrongdoing). It just happened that at some point when I was going back to work (first hour in the morning, or after lunch for example) I tried to log in again and then I got the warning.
So I have tried a third time, this time I have given all my real information, reluctantly uploaded a personal picture, given all my data to Facebook (yikes!).
And after a couple of days: damn, same result. Blocked account. Work lost. They prompt you to upload a picture to check your Id, but to no avail (no answer yet, not even a notice of any kind) and they don´t give you absolutely any reason why the have blocked you.
And if I go to https://facebook.com/help/contact/260749603972907 to fill the form where they ask you to upload an ID then it says that the email doesn´t belong to a disabled account!
What is the unusual activity they have detected? What have I done wrong? Has someone experienced the same problem? Has someone got any clue of what it is that I could be doing wrong?
Because I don´t want to go through the whole process once again only to get blocked in a couple of days.
Thanks.
EDIT 1:
Ok, after checking again now it recognizes the account as a disabled one. I have gone to https://facebook.com/help/contact/260749603972907 to fill the form and I have uploaded my ID (even though I completely disagree with disclosing that kind of information).
Honestly, I don´t know what it means by "shortly". It´s been two days now and I have not received any kind of notification yet.
By the way, I haven´t received any kind of notification (mail, sms, anything) during any step of the process EVER. No one. Nothing. Not even an automatic email response. Plain absolute silence.
Honestly, if Facebook uses a security system like this, that lets hackers in while blocks legitimate users, creating false positives and making us lose many hours of work, without any reason or notification or explanation, then Facebook security is plain wrecked.
And I cannot do anything less than to strongly discourage any developer to use it if they can avoid it (what unfortunately I can´t).
EDIT 2:
After some days I regained access to my account again. Without any notification, I just tried again and now it worked (really good communication policy, Facebook, congratulations).
My App had disappeared, so I had to go through the whole process again. And after sending ONE message to the API, this again:
And once again the asked me to upload a picture of myself (I think they already have enough pictures of me to make an album).
This is just plain crazy.
I applied twice in the google forms for a developer key for soundcloud to use a widget on my website. It has been more than 3 weeks and I have still not got any reply from them. What do I do?
I'm afraid you just have to wait until they respond. I have applied 3 times now and keep getting rejected and the response is a generic answer not explaining why you were denied. For me I think it is the APP URL, yet they don't explain, it is so frustrating.
Did you try email api#soundcloud.com on my first rejection they were very friendly and replied with advice, however second time they did not.
You can also try calling help on +4930467247600 however they have not worked for me.
Lastly I read online that one person heard nothing from them for weeks and checked his SoundCloud developer page under 'YOUR APPS' and his app was there set up and with the client id and secret etc. He was just never informed that he got it. So hopefully that is the story in your case.
For me it took four weeks. I contacted them via Twitter and Email. They responded but all they said was:
"As mentioned previously, we’re currently working through applications
as quickly as possible, although there has recently been more requests
than usual lately causing delays.
You should receive confirmation soon though."
good morning!
Since last week my website URL - www.musiconline.xpg.com.br - and others sites from www.xpg.com.br , is/are with the LIKE BUTTON blocked.
I need the solution for this problem Urgently, because I'm NOT a Spammer!!!
My Fan Page is with a problem too: http://www.facebook.com/musicasonline
I'm trying to talk with Facebook in Forum and Support, but I still have no answer until now.
Thanks a lot for all!
I finally got my URL back. Facebook blocked use of our URL for years, yes years. For some reason no one would include our website URL (a-fib.com) in any post, or even on our own FB page. They'd get an error message saying our site had been flagged as spammy. This had been going on for years! FB has zero customer service.
Here's what worked. After trying everything else over the course of three years, we finally resorted to writing a pleading letter on our letterhead, asking why would anyone block a non-profit trying to help heart patients? We sent it 'registered mail' to FB headquarters. (Advice I found among other ideas online from those with a similar problem.) It worked. Praise the lord!
Facebook does not care if you personally are a spammer or not – it just blocks the whole domain, in this case most likely xpg.com.br.
This is a risk you’re always taking when using a shared domain. To avoid it, the best way is to get your own domain – then it’s you and only you who’s responsible – whereas now, if one of the users on this domain does not behave, all other users of the same domain will get punished as well.
They all seem to be either bouncing explicitly or silently not going through now (0 open/click rate), and they had been working since they first introduced the feature. I know they aren't giving users the option to choose a proxymail.facebook.com address anymore in the newer Auth box. Thanks.
The answer is NO. Facebook no longer issues proxymail addresses.
Although there is no official reference which I can attach with this answer. But found this for reference.
Pretty sure it's still available to users, but Facebook rolls out
updates to their dialog boxes slowly, so it's possible a newer (or
even an older) one doesn't have that option.
This was one link where you had that:-
Now after the recent updates the Change button was removed.
I can answer the specific question I asked so long ago. I think Facebook must have had a bug for a while that broke the *#proxymail.facebook.com email integration, and it was during this period that I asked my original question. However, looking at our email logs, I can see that we have had people click on links in email sent to these Facebook proxy emails at the end of October, so whatever the issue was must have been resolved, and I believe if you have a Facebook proxy email, you can safely send to it.
That being said, of course the individual user may have revoked the email permission (in which case their proxy email will go to nowhere), and my impression is the same as sfussenegger that Facebook is no longer allowing users to use proxy email addresses. I haven't seen the option to anonymize my email in a FB permissions dialog in a long time...
does this answer your question?
Communicating Directly with Your Users via Email
The reason you're getting no click-rates, is because in all outgoing emails that go through the facebook proxymail servers, the remailer is rewriting the links. So stuff of the form:
<a href="http://www.domain.com/">
gets re-written as:
<a href="l.php/?u=http://www.domain.com/">
Which is a broken link, and so your open-detection or click-detection probably won't work at all. And undoubtedly, users are confused (as evidenced by my users who ran into this).
