I am trying to add a facebook comments box using the social plugin to an application which will be running inside facebook as a facebook app.
When I view the app via its url it works fine however when I view the app in the dev facebook app the comments plugin does not load. Does anyone know if this is possible or if there are any additional settings required.
I have tried setting the data-href to the url of where the app is served from and the url of the facebook app neither seem to work
<div class="fb-comments" data-href="[MYDOMAIN]” data-num-posts="30" data-width="470"></div>
The code is just the standard snippet from fb js sdk
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId : '[MYAPPID], // App ID
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
FB.Canvas.setAutoGrow();
// Additional initialization code here
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
Try providing a channel file and channelUrl.
From the Facebook JavaScript SDK documentation:
"...pages that include code to communicate across frames may cause Social Plugins to show up as blank without a channelUrl..."
FB.init({
appId : 'YOUR_APP_ID', // App ID
channelUrl : '//WWW.YOUR_DOMAIN.COM/channel.html', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});

The Javascript SDK is working for every browser on my desktop, but I'm having issues with Safari on an iPhone.
Here's what happens:
- I click Login
- Facebook Oauth opens in a new window, and I successfully login
- The Facebook Oauth Window closes, and the old window shows up
- Rather than refresh the login page (as desktop browsers do), nothing happens...
So I'm successfully logged in, but the old page shows up. The user thinks that they're not logged in. I've seen similar issue son stack overflow but no answers.
Has anyone seen this or know of a solution?
<html xmlns:fb="http://ogp.me/ns/fb#">
<body>
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId : <%= FACEBOOK_CONFIG['app_id'] %>, // App ID
channelUrl : '//'+window.location.hostname+'/channel', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// Additional initialization code here
// whenever the user logs in, we refresh the page
FB.Event.subscribe('auth.login', function() {
setTimeout('document.location.reload()', 10);
});
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
</script>
I have implemented a Facebook based login.
The FB.login works perfectly, but the FB.logout doesn't. I have tried with different FB.init, deleting cookies, running the logout page several times in a row, but the only way to log my user out is in facebook itself.
The code I'm using for logout is:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
<script>
FB.init({
appId: '***************',
xfbml: true,
status: true,
cookie: true
});
FB.getLoginStatus();
FB.logout();
</script>
Any ideas?
Thank you
did you tried having some button onclick event is FB.logout();
function logout(){
FB.logout(function(response) {
// user is now logged out
});
}
<button onclick="logout()">LogOut</button>
Try This
Try to do this:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId : 'YOUR_APP_ID', // App ID
channelUrl : '//WWW.YOUR_DOMAIN.COM/channel.html', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// Additional initialization code here
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
</script>
and then call the FB.logout(). FB must be initializad before.
From the documentation:
This code loads the SDK asynchronously so it does not block loading other elements of your page. This is particularly important to ensure fast page loads for users and SEO robots.
The URLs in the above code are protocol relative. This lets the browser to load the SDK over the same protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) as the containing page, which will prevent "Insecure Content" warnings.
The function assigned to window.fbAsyncInit is run as soon as the SDK is loaded. Any code that you want to run after the SDK is loaded should be placed within this function and after the call to FB.init. For example, this is where you would test the logged in status of the user or subscribe to any Facebook events in which your application is interested.
I am trying to use javascript sdk for rendering a XFBML form on our site and i keep getting
Unable to load the registration form for . You may have previously blocked this app on Facebook. Go to your Facebook privacy settings to unblock this app. (Error: Invalid 'client_id'.)
my app is registered and with correct id.
the code looks like is:
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId : '118446328234891', // App ID
channelUrl : '//www.sakshum.org/channel.html', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// Additional initialization code here
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
</script>
<script src="https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#appId=118446328234891&xfbml=1"></script>
<fb:registration fields="name,birthday,gender,location,email" redirect-uri="http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sakshum.org%2FFbValidation" width="530">
</fb:registration>
just to add on if i use non xfbml version using just iframe then all works fine.
Looks like the issue was using encoded redirect_uri. changing it to normal url fixed the issue.
The redirect-uri must match with the setting "Site URL" in your Facebook app.
im using this code to create a facebook connect button on my site:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
apiKey: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMQTQ2DshKBkNG4aAZDZD',
appId : 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', // App ID
channelUrl : '//www.xxx.net/channel.html', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// Additional initialization code here
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
function logOut(){
FB.logout();
}
</script>
<div class="fb-login-button" data-show-faces="false" data-width="200" data-max-rows="1"></div>
<a href="#" onclick="logOut();" >Logout</a>
when i hit the login button , im loggin in but when i hit the logout link
i get disconnected from facebook (not from the app itself)
and then when i do the following:
1. log in again (directly on facebook.com )
2. go to my site
3. hit the login , and it sais im alread connected to the app
what am i doing wring here ?
If I understand this correctly, you are expecting to get disconnected from the app as well? That is not how it works. When you authorize an app, it will stay authorized unless you remove it from the authorized list in FB. Logging out will only log you out of FB.
When you login to FB, as your app is authorized already, hitting the login button goes to FB sees that its already authorized, tells you so.
am trying to use facebook login on my site and here is how i load the sdk
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({
appId : '362869753746986', // App ID
channelUrl : '//WWW.FESTIVEHUB.COM/channel.html', // Channel File
status : true, // check login status
cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session
xfbml : true // parse XFBML
});
// Additional initialization code here
};
// Load the SDK Asynchronously
(function(d){
var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";
ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref);
}(document));
and the login button
<div class="fb-login-button" data-show-faces="true" data-width="200" data-max-rows="2"></div>
if i click the login button it shows a new facebook window for login and if i do it logs in the problem however are after the login the small new window remains and it blank but if i manually close it and refresh my page the login button is replaced with my FB profile picture so i need that login window to close automatically and i need a callback function so i can take action after the login. NB am working on localhost if its worth noting!
Your code looks OK, but your issue is probably your channelUrl file. The domain on the channel URL, your applications registered URL, and the URL you are trying to login from all have to match. The channel file also needs to have a single line
<script src="https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
to work.
