Hey guys I think I screwed my self up here but hope you will be able to help me out.
I have recently added the facebook like button my home page, I did not create a page for it but linked it to my facebook app id before I made a page and used its actual page ID.
<meta property="fb:page_id" content="APPID" />
So when I clicked like it created a new page for my website however I can not add my self as the admin.
I have added fb:admins meta tag.
<meta property="fb:admins" content="USERID" />
I still cannot add my self as the admin, any help would be much appreciated :)
Facebook caches everything so probabily it "saved" the link without you as the admin.
A possible solution for this is to refresh facebook's cache using the URL Linter found here http://developers.facebook.com/tools/lint/ .
Just enter the url where the the like button is installed and it will refresh the information.

I'm trying to set up the Facebook social Comments Plugin and use the Page-based Moderation View. I've added all the necessary code, but the "Moderation Tool" link does not appear next to the Comments box. The page does not require a logon. What am I doing wrong? The page is http://www.ergo-sum.net/music/MaudIrving.html and you can see the source to see the code I put in it.
You will need to set up the OG tags correctly for your page. Also the value of <meta property="fb:admins" content="..."/> should be your user id and not URL to your profile. Once you fix these issues, run you URL through the URL debugger to ensure that the crawler has picked up the new values correctly. It will also display any issues that you URL may have and you will need to fix those as well.
I found yesterday the some of the links of my website I want to post, can't be posted on my Facebook page.
After some research and reading in https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/, I found the some of the posts in my site are blocked but not all of them.
I got this message:
This link is blocked, or you have triggered an excessive amount of
scrapes. If you think you're seeing this by mistake, please let us
know.
and this also
fb:app_id hasn't been included in the meta tags. Specify the app ID so
that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the
app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share
dialog. Otherwise, the default app id( 966242223397117 ) will be
assigned.
And website is clean doesn't indicate any virus ...ets.
Some of the post's are OK but other are blocked and I can't get idea what is the difference between them.
Also check my open graph meta tag's, they also looks Ok. Any ideas how to fix this issue?
for the app_id issue:
Go to the following page: https://www.facebook.com/insights
Then use the "Create an App" and "Add your Domain" buttons to generate the app id for your site to be included in the meta tags on your web pages.
<meta property="fb:admins" content="1234" />
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="your_app_id" />
I have the same problem. It started after I updated my Yoast plugin to the latest version.
How can I access all the comments from the Facebook Comments Box on my website?
When I checked the Facebook documentation, I have this link:
The comments for every URL can be accessed via the graph API. Simply go to: https://graph.facebook.com/comments/?ids={YOUR_URL}.
But it's only for one page, I want the global result for all the pages in the website.
Thanks for your help!
You can add yourself as a moderator (which is probably a good idea anyways) by adding this in head:
<meta property="fb:admins" content="{YOUR_FACEBOOK_USER_ID}"/>
Or you can instead add a Facebook application (and all the moderators of that app) with:
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="{YOUR_APPLICATION_ID}"/>
(but note that you can't do both).
Having done that, you can see all the comments to moderate here:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/comments?view=queue
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anyway to subscribe to this queue.
I have a Facebook comment plugin on my website, when I comment on it, it shows on my website, but doesnt show on my profile on facebook. I had the post on profile option ticked and it still doesnt show. is there something I am missing?
You must create an application in facebook and then add meta tags to your site
<meta content='{YOUR APP ID}' property='fb:app_id'/>
<meta content='YOUR FACEBOOK ID' property='fb:admins'/>
You can create application here
I am using Facebook Send button in 3 pages of my website. Before i send the message, the title, website and description looks fine. After i send, it shows up different title and different description in the message . I have no idea what's wrong in here? Is that my mistake somewhere or cache issue or something else?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Facebook has a tool called URL Linter. This tool gives us an idea about how a url will be shared on facebook, what content, which image will be fetched. We can use this tool for any url and it fetches the latest title, description, excerpt and other stuff that will be shown while sharing the link. If you use an already shared URL with this tool then facebook fetches the latest content, and also updates it cache with the latest content.
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
At first you have to cross check and confirm that the url shared is of the right page, not the simple domain address. It will be better to cross check the following contents inside <Head> tag to make sure that you have done basic code requirements.
<link href="{URL OF THE PAGE}" rel="canonical">
<meta content="{YOUR FB APP ID}" property="fb:app_id">
<meta content="{YOUR PAGE TITLE}" property="og:title">
<meta content="website" property="og:type">
<meta content="{URL OF THE PAGE}" property="og:url">
<meta content="{LOGO IMAGE URL}" property="og:image">
<meta content="{YOUR SITE NAME}" property="og:site_name">
Once this is done, it should mostly resolve your issue with different title and different description.
If you still face issue, go to https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
Input URL or Access Token and click DEBUG button. It will guide you if there is any errors in the in accessing the page by facebook.
Hope this helps.
