I've got a client who is more familiar and confident with the facebook intefrace and would like have her posts from Facebook Business page be autoposted on her Wordpress blog.
Any hints on how to achieve this.
I understand the benefits of getting her using Worpress, but at this stage the lack of WYSIWYG in the WordPress app is holding her back.
Any suggestions of plugins to take Facebook posts to Wordpress would be appreciated.
Facebook does not yet provide real-time updates for stream posts on pages, so you'll need to do something like this:
Set up a cron job to call a script on schedule (once per hour or day probably) that:
Makes an API call to her page's feed to see if any new posts were made since the last poll.
If data is returned, loop through the results and create a new WP post for each FB post.
Just make sure there aren't any plugins installed on WP that autopost to FB.
I haven't ever seen a plugin like this before. There are some plugins out there that make editing Wordpress more user-friendly like Front End Editor. This might be a better solution.
get the rss feed url of your fb page and put it into the feedwordpress plugin

Is it possible to scrape the pictures and titles of an album of a facebook group? Any ideas or know a good tutorial to get going with this?
It does not look like this is possible using the API.
You should be able to make a call to /GROUP_ID/albums to get the album_id in the Graph API explorer then make a call to /ALBUM_ID to get the photos.
Both of these calls to groups I admin result in OAuth Errors: "(#3) App must be on whitelist"
Whitelisting apps appears to only be possible by a Facebook employee.
You could try manually scraping the album URL as though you were a browser, but this is not supported and could get you and your group banned.

I am looking to add a Like Gate to my articles similar to something seen on this blog:
http://www.wetpaint.com/the-bachelorette/articles/reality-steve-on-bachelor-pad-3-two-of-emilys-guys-join-the-cast-plus-whos-returning
Can anyone point me to a direction where I could implement this? Would it be a plug-in or a custom piece of code? Any help would be great!
What the reference site has is a modal dialog that gets dismissed by an onClick event on one of the links. One of those links takes you to like Facebook. There is another "No Thanks" link that just shows the content.
The Facebook popup at the bottom of the page is the Facebook Recommendations Bar. The link takes you to the official documentation. This allows your site to publish "You just read some article on this website" to a visitor's news feed.
A real like gate is no longer allowed. Facebook has deprecated most of the methods that make a like gate possible. See Facebook Platform Policies Section IV. Point 1 says "You must not ... gate content behind ... Facebook social channels...." The "No Thanks" link keeps them in compliance with the TOS.

I'd like to integrate the app with facebook and twitter. I.e. when the game is over, the user can click the 'share' button, then login facebook/twitter in the app, share the record in his wall after login dialog.
two questions:
1. Shall I apply the API key for both facebook and twitter, for my app?
2. Since this feature shall be common for most apps, do you have any experiences on it? Or is there any shared library that can be used?
Look at ShareKit, that helps sharing content across various social networks. Haven't tried it myself but heard a lot about it.
For Facebook you can also use the official FacebookAPI lib.
You can find the below link that will help you.
http://getsharekit.com/
http://getsharekit.com/install/#download
https://github.com/ideashower/sharekit/
This above link its help you.
If you just plan to link to Twitter and FB Sharekit might be a bit too much.
Facebook integration is easy, just follow the tutorial on FB developpers site:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/mobile/
For Twitter, I think that best think to do is rely on iOS native support that will be available in iOS 5 (details under NDA).

Am required to integrate the Facebook comments on a wordpress blog... There are no issues there ( ran a few tests locally and everything turned out alright ).
The problem appears when I'm asked to keep the current Wordpress comments, but under the facebook layout. Basically the client doesn't want to lose the current comments, but in the same time I can't keep the wordpress comments either. Everything has to be faceook...
Any ideas? Any suggestions? Is this possible at all ( I 'googled' everything related to this question, but there was no answer ).
P.S.: how did Techcrunch manage to do this ( or they kept the comments from their facebook page? )?
Thanks!
The plugin Facebook Comments for WordPress is doing what you are looking for :
users can post with their Facebook account (and cross-post on their wall)
users can post with standard Wordpress comments
comments from both sources are merged
and a lot of cool features the Facebook comments plugin miss (chronological order, email notification, cross-post all comments to a user page, etc.)
