Is there any suitable, secure and modular API to do this?
It will be included in a WP plugin.
EDIT: More that posts I need send generic data that it is collected through a WP plugin. These data is not stored in the WP DB, I just need send them.
You can take a look at http://wordbooker.tty.org.uk/.
I am just a happy user of that plugin, no affiliation.
After 2 long and sad days I can contribute with this answer: This API is a very, very good. And it is recommended in the FB developer website to all your PHP needs:
Facebook PHP SDK

We are helping a client who had a recent site redesign done on Squarespace.
With the iOS 14 update the client is worried about not being able to track Apple users for facebook ads.
One solution talked about is to implement the Facebook Conversions API where the Squarespace site would capture data for users that didn't block and we'd get it sent into the Facebook CAPI via a site like Zapier.
There is debate on Squarespace forums whether this is even worth it.
Our developers have not been able to find a clear way to get it done.
Anyone have experience doing this and if so, have then seen that it is worth it?
Thanks!

I am migrating one of my sites to new cms and I would like to know if there's a way to migrate facebook comments too together with content, users, templates and etc?
In old joomla site I was using: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/social-web/social-comments/16890 this plugin for comments, if that makes the difference :)
I am using joomla 1.5 and WordPress 3.4.1 versions. Any posible solutions are wellcome.
You cannot import Facebook comments, because Facebook needs to associate each comment with a Facebook user. They don't allow importing because they couldn't verify that the user actually made all the comments you may be saying they made, which would be a big potential area for spam or misuse.
As you know, a lot of bigger news websites have intorduced "social readers" for Facebook (e.g. https://apps.facebook.com/wpsocialreader/), which log what the user has read into the activity stream ("Michael read..."). Is it possible to integrate similar functionality into a Wordpress blog? Are the relevant API's open? Are there any plugins available? Thanks.
UPD: http://trac.ahwebdev.fr/projects/facebook-awd
The plugin seems to do the trick. Will have to try it out!
Yep, all of the APIs required to recreate the WashPo Reader or the Guardian reader etc are open, so it shouldn't be an issue to implement it for Wordpress.
Here's the relevant docs - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
i am the creator of Facebook AWD.
From now to get actions publishing working with Facebook AWD and wordpress you must buy a subplugin.
This process will take place with the v1.3 of Facebook AWD
Update: The plugin is ready here: http://facebook-awd.ahwebdev.fr/plugins/opengraph-actions/
Came across this post while searching for something related. Anyone still thinking of integrating Social read with any blog or website can simply use this plugin(For non-developers or for developers who just want to use a ready made solution)..

As an experiment I'd like to set up a coldfusion page that will pull and display the status updates from my own facebook account and twitter accounts that fall within an input date range; similar to tools like
http://orsiso.com/
http://www.threadsy.com/
and http://www.davidcramer.net/lifestream
I assume this will involve working with the facebook and twitter apis, which I have some experience with when working with mobile apps; but I've never tried to do something like this with a coldfusion page before. Eventually I'd like to pull other things like images and such, but for a first test just status updates is fine. Does anyone have sample code and/or pointers that could assist me in this endeavor? Thank you very much in advance.
Edit: I'm interested in a variant of this idea involving a database, and I've opened up a new question regarding such: Pulling facebook and twitter status updates into a SQL database via Coldfusion Page
In addition, you should check out RIAForge, which has CF code to handle both Twitter and Facebook APIs.
For Twitter see this..

Have a look at this coldfusion wrapper for the twitter API here, really easy to set up and grab the data from your twitter feed.
I also use the twitter4j library to access my twitter account on my coldfusion site, I followed the tutorial here to get started.
Is there any plugin or way to post on my facebook wall directly from my website?
(There are plugins available for WordPress. But mine is not a blog site).
Thanks in advance
Facebook has a full REST api, so you should be able to use it from any language. If you are using PHP you could look at what the wordpress plugin is doing and then replicate that for your page. Otherwise you probably should look at the SDK information for facebooks api processes and then just call them however you need from your site.
There's a comments widget.
