I have a page with 7 custom application I've made, tested and are currently attacked to a facebook page. For some users they see all 7 application, other users see only 1. The applications are in iFrame, with sandbox disabled. From my computer using my account and my sister's account (FF/Chrome) - we both see all of them, in Opera without login I also see all of the applications. What could be the cause?
Here is the page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gloria-Mar/267571689965042
I've tested viewing in various browsers with both "developers" and non- facebook developer accounts and I can always see 7 apps listed. I'm not sure how to reproduce this issue. Can you give specifics on how to reproduce?

It's been about 2 months now. We manage several facebook pages and all these pages were linking to native iOS / Android apps from the CTA button where users were either opening their apps via "Use App" link or were redirected to download them in case they didn't have it installed.
What happens now is that the dialog to connect your app via the "add button" function in Facebook pages, it only shows a textfield to redirect the users to a website (image attached). There is no way to link to a registered app (of course there is a related app registered with all the relevant platforms enabled and the admin has access to it). Facebook, as always is completely silent and not responding to any support requests, clients that had their apps linked to pages now ask us what happened and we are out in the cold without being able to understand wtf is happening.
This happens to 90% of our pages, some of them still have a "Use App" button that works just fine, but all others have the above problem. Also, new pages, suffer from the same problem as well. Changing the page theme doesn't seem to do anything. One (strange) finding is that if you download the pages management app in a mobile device, there is also a checkbox which allows to enter a deep link url besides the standard url but just that. The list with the apps that we had access to link to pages has just vanished.
Any ideas? Anyone having the same issue?
Excuse me for the confusing title. We have programmed App which runs with in the Facebook. It can be accessed over the desktop/notebook browsers. However it is not accessible/available if I login to the Facebook app on my iPhone and go to the APP list. Following scenarios does not work.
1) If somebody sends me the invitation to use the APP using Facebook message. If I now login to the Facebook-app on my iPhone and go to the messages and click on the invitation, I see the error. "Page not found". This works perfectly if I login to Facebook using browser (on laptop or iPhone)
2) On my iPhone, in the Facebook APP, if go to list of my APPs then our APP is not available in that list. (Other apps like candy crush and so on can be found)
Are we missing some configuration?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
You are talking about a canvas app?
Those are not available on mobile, and never have been. But you can specify a Mobile Site URL in your canvas settings – users on mobile devices, that follow a link to your canvas app somewhere will then automatically be redirected to that external address.
Little cave-at: This has been disabled on a larger scale by Facebook recently, because some people where using it to redirect users to malware sites. Therefor now you have to get your app “white-listed” before this will work. Check this bug report, the FB engineer mentions are form where you can request this: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/1051463851558493/
I have been trying for almost a week to install a Unity3d app/game on a Facebook page. I'm probably one of 2 people on earth that is not that familiar with Facebook. I have had a Facebook Ad account for over a year. I think this might be the problem. I can't find any information if apps can even be added to Ad accounts. Every post suggests adding the 'Development App' or a Canvas Page. These processes lead me back to my Ad page and there is no Dev App to install or links or canvas pages. When I try to use the Developer Tutorial or the canvas tutorial clicks lead back to my ad page. On 'Ad Page' on the left side I have the following options....Campaigns and Ads, Pages, Reports, Settings, Billings, Creative Library and Learn More. I tried to open a regular account and deactivate the Ad Account, but could not get pass the phone number verification because I'd used my number to verify my first account. So that one never got fully set up. I reactivated the Ad Account but still can't access the Development App or Canvas Pages or Open Graph. How can I ad the Development App to an Ad Account?
The developer app, http://www.facebook.com/developers, stopped working for me a couple of weeks ago. I think you're supposed to use https://developers.facebook.com/apps now.
I have a Facebook app running in a Page Tab (the tab of a Facebook Page for an organization). The Page Tab URL (and Secure Page Tab URL) points to a URL on my own server which holds a PHP page that contains an iframe of a Google Calendar.
The app works perfectly fine when I open the Page using the admin account (both http and https). But when I open the Page using the user account of someone who has 'Liked' the Page, the app does not appear at all (both http and https). Any suggestions? Thank you.
Check if the app is in sandbox mode, in the Advanced section of the Settings here:
https://developers.facebook.com/apps
I believe that is the problem.
You may overlooked the "sandbox" setting that should be "disabled", this could be one explanation as per the answer above. If this have not answered to your question, than you may find another explanation here:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/appcenter/guidelines/
Basically, if your application doesn't do anything it will probably not be approved and it will not be visible to nobody, except you - the developer. There are other issues, like copyrighted infringement and so on... please read.
(Also, just in case you are interested, it should be installed by more than 30 times, I guess different persons, in order to be "searchable").
I'm seeing a problem requesting permissions with Facebook connect on iPhones. Everything had been working fine and then it just started out of nowhere. I can't seem to sort it out, so I posted it here to see if anyone's experiencing the same issues? I'm trying to log users into a mobile website and here's what I'm seeing:
On Android, everything is A-OK, as are regular web browsers.
On the iPhone 3, users get the login page ok, but are not redirected to the request permissions page, just to mobile facebook. If they leave and come back and click on the login button again, they are taken to the request permissions page, and after they allow/don't allow, they are taken back to our site. This is also the same for iPad users
On the iPhone4, users get the login page ok, but are not redirected to the request permissions page, just to mobile facebook. If they leave and come back, they are taken to the mobile facebook site and never are prompted for their permissions.
Highlights:
Everything was fine 3 weeks ago
Everything is still fine on Android using the very same FBConnect url, but it blows on iOS
What happens on iPhone 3 is different that what happens on iPhone 4
I've tried doing this with 3 different urls, but StackOverflow will only let me put 2 in here because I'm a new user:
http://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?client_id=[OUR_CLIENT_ID]&redirect_uri=[OUR_URL]&display=wap&scope=email,user_location,read_friendlists,publish_stream,offline_access
http://m.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?client_id=[OUR_CLIENT_ID]&redirect_uri=[OUR_URL]&perms=email,user_location,read_friendlists,publish_stream,offline_access";
The other URL was similar to these, but used the graph API
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Facebook has since removed the WAP interface and replaced that with Javascript SDK interfaces for Android and iOS, and now normal wap enabled phones have been shut out.
