I haven't done a Facebook app in a while. Today I needed to create a simple application for a customer and I'm still not able to install it.
The app is very basic. The idea is to have an extra "tab" where the app will simply show a jpg stored on an external server.
The main problem at this moment is that when I login as the clients page admin, and navigate to the app page, it does not show the "add app to page" link.
How can I install my app?
Retrieve your app id from https://developers.facebook.com/apps
Replace your app id in the following URL where it says YOUR_APP_ID:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=YOUR_APP_ID&display=popup&next=http://facebook.com

Recently One of facebook app has been restricted by facebook saying the app is redirecting off of facebook. Now I want to test run the app in facebook. According to this website https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/test-apps I need to click on test apps but I dont find any Test apps link in app's page. Please help
The goal is to use facebook share button.
"App Not Setup: This app is still in development mode, and you don't have access to it. Switch to a registered test user or ask an app admin for permissions."
This is a message when I want to login with other than my app account. When I login with my app account I can use the button otherwise not. Is it because I use test apps delails? When I use my original website app id it gives the same message. In settings it is available to public. Test application is in development mode, it doesnt change to available to public. Should I remove test version or?
Thanks in advance.
Your application is in development and no one user can use this application except developers and organizers. You can see list of all people who can use your app at menu item "Roles" at application dashboard. To make your application available to other people make next steps:
Go to app dashboard at facebook -> Settings -> set contact email -> App Review -> swith first slider to YES position.
After this manipulations other people can login to your app correctly.
I'm testing out writing mobile web app that connects to Facebook.
I follow this guide here and created a app on facebook, and uploaded the code to my own server.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/mobile/web/
But then, I got to the point where it tells me to search for my own app in facebook.com. My app won't show up, and I found out they won't until you have some users and then it'll be indexed.
So how do I get to my app?
Thanks
You might have your app settings (on the advanced screen: https://developers.facebook.com/apps/APPID/advanced) set to either sandbox mode enabled or Social discover disabled.
After downloading my app from app store (or via OTA) and trying to share via FBConnect SDK, the mobile app is launched but returns almost immediately to the app with error -999, without asking user for authorizations.
After that, clicking on FB share button reopens the mobile app and all goes well, authorizations are asked, my app is called back and display the FB dialog.
That issue only happens once : if I uninstall/reinstall the app and remove the FBapp authorizations from my FB account, all goes well.
I already specified the BundleID/iTunes App ID in the "Native iOS App" menu, and use the last FacebookConnect SDK.
Anyone experienced the same issue ?
Problem:
I run the sample iOS SDK code for facebook connect. When Facebook app is not installed, the sample app authenticates through Safari just fine and the sample app is able to post successfully.
When native Facebook app is installed, the sample app causes the Facebook app to be launched for authentication which shows a page that is requesting login for the demo app. When I press the login, it brings up another window that has the allow/"don't allow" options. So far so good. The problem is that if I logout from within the sample app (i.e., [_facebook logout:self]) and try to login again, pressing the "login" button in the Facebook app does nothing (it's supposed to take you to the allow/"do not allow" page).
I have specified the App-ID in the sample app and I have included the fb[app-id] (e.g., fb1234) in the plist under 'URL Types' (otherwise, the Safari authentication would not have worked either).
Any help is appreciated.
It does not take you again to the "allow/don't allow" page because the user already gave permission to the app. The only way the page can show again is when the user revoke the access from the Facebook admin panel. I'm not sure if there's a part of the API that can actually revoke the access of the app from the iOS SDK.
