How to post on facebook account wall when any blog post made from wordpress.
I allready tried with various wordpress plugin like "wordbook", "wordbooker" etc but none of them working fine........ any idea or alternative way?
Use the Twitter Tools plugin and then link your twitter account to your Facebook account. I use it all the time, plus you get the added benefit of Twitter.
I'm writing a plugin for that matter, you can check out the development version right over here: http://kovshenin.com/public/facebook-feeder-alpha.tar.gz
It doesn't have a funky user interface, but it does post stuff to Facebook assuming you have a facebook developer account and a facebook app registered. Look at the posts on my Facebook profile: http://facebook.com/kovshenin (ones marked via kovshenin.com) - they're generated via this plugins.
P.S. It doesn't to that automatically, but you can send it to FB when the post is published. Shouldn't require much time to automate it, but I'd like to customize things before sending anything anywhere.
Hope this helps. Cheers.
P.S. PHP programming skills required to use this plugin.

I have developed a Wordpress site that is hosted on the client's server. The client does not want to enable SSL on the server, but wants to be able to auto post from WP to an existing FB page. Is this possible? I know there are a couple of awesome plugins but they all require a FB App to be created. The client does not want to do this, they want to use their existing FB page. Me thinks I might be in for some extra coding.
There are a number of APIs available to work with pages:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/page/
I'm not sure exactly what you're looking to do from WP, but there might be a way to do that through the Page API. Note that working with pages requires you to have a page access_token, which you will need to set up.
You can set their facebook page up with this plugin: https://www.facebook.com/networkedblogs. It will allow for blog posts to be automatically posted on a facebook page.
I´ve just started to test, use and play with facebook apps. I´ve searched stackoverflow but didn´t find exactly what I need, so, here I am.
I´ve a drupal site. I´ve installed the Facebook for Drupal module, so I can use facebook in my site. I want users to be able to post comments in my site without creating for them any account.
I can use that module for that.
So, the question is: is there a way to allow people to use the default Drupal comment system, so when anonymous users want to comment they can post the comment directely to my site, or if they are logged with their FB account they can post comments as their FB user?
I want every time the comments to be posted inside my site, I mean to be hosted inside my own database. That´s why I don´t want to use disqus.
But I´ve read that you can use either Drupal comments OR FB comments. Are FB comments hosted inside FB and not my site?
As you can see, I´m not much into FB, so I don´t know much about it. I just want my users to be able to interact in my site with their FB accounts if they want.
Hope someone can help me out with some insight. Hope this question is clear enough... english isn´t my mother´s tongue and it was kinda hard to explain what I need :)
Use normal Drupal comments, and just allow people to log into your site using fb_connect.module from the Drupal for Facebook module, or using the Facebook Connect module. And of course allow anonymous commenting as well to meet your other requirement.
I have web portal. I need to somehow get all Facebook wall posts from just one specific user or group( that represents my web portal). I need to have wall posts available on my web portal for further processing.
I will be also needing an option for posting messages from web portal to FB user/group wall.
I haven`t worked with FB API until now, so any materials, tutorials that can lead me in right direction would be of great help.
Can this be done without creating Facebook application?
Thank you
No,
Facebook just like that does not share its user information.
you will have to create an app on facebook to authorize urself,and on your web portal you will have to sek users permission before getting any user info.
craete facebook app here https://developers.facebook.com/apps
You can choose between javascript sdk and graph api on how you want to get user data.
You can use publish_stream permisiion to get the post on user wall.

NO

Google, but I would be careful here. Try to search for updated tutorials (written or updated on 2011)
I used this http://neosmart.de/social-media/facebook-wall its fb.wall plugin into jQuery .js library. It easy and can be edited symply via CSS
My aim is to make a facebook fanpage for a client who wants his blogposts to automatically show up on his fanpage.
I've already read several posts here in the forums. I've tried several methods to auto-publish wordpress posts to a fanpage in facebook.(notes, ...) The last method I used was making an app and using the "Simple Facebook Connect" plugin for wp.
I got quite confusing with this. I have an app called "myClient" and a fanpage called "myClient". If I publish a blogpost, it automatically shows up on the fanpage but "via myClient". Is there a way on get rid of the facebook app? I don't want to show up the via-sentences because the app is just the connection between wp and fb and has no content at all (the content is on the fanpage)
Hopefully you can help me with that!
Thanks in advance.
Whenever you want to publish something on Facebook, you need a Facebook Application as it's the "trusted" connection between your source and Facebook (this is why you have the App Secret and all the authentication/authorization process..etc).
So, How to auto-publish wordpress post to facebook fanpage without a facebook app?
You can't! But what you can do is changing the App name to something the Client would agree on (and not being "already taken", of course!).
You can use the notes facility available. It is updated when the RSS address you provide updates.
Actually there is a way to get rid of the Facebook App - by using third parties automatic Facebook publishing tools like ZapRobot - in that way you actually lean on someone else's FB API APP. Note that then you give "manage_pages" permission to the third party. The process should be:
1) Register with ZapRobot - this is a Facebook login, you give them posting rights to your page
2) Define a job that posts A LINK (ignore their categories) while the link is pointing to the RECENT wordpress item on your blog
Good luck :-)
I'm working on implementing a two-way sync for a website that started as a Facebook fan page years ago and now is going to be run primarily off site.
Right now here's the process I'm using:
Import Posts + Comments from the Graph API. Posts are stored as Wordpress posts, comments are stored as Wordpress comments and some additional data such as Facebook Post ID or Post Author are stored in the post meta.
I've created a second submission form (only admin can submit posts from Wordpress site) that uses the Graph API to post directly to the fan page, then run the importer so that when the post is first entered into the database, it already has it's FB_POST_ID attached.
Comments from Facebook are easily updated and added to Wordpress. FB-Connect allows Facebook users to login and comment on the Wordpress but those comments are not synced with Facebook as I can't attach a user comment to a Facebook post via the Graph API (I can't control other users).
Has anyone run into anything similar or have other ideas for how I could achieve a "two-way" sync? (Quotes as my current setup is technically one-way that mimics two-way. New posts bypass Wordpress then get synced from Facebook).
This question is a bit old, but I actually got here from the official Facebook comments plugin page so I'm answering.
There is a plugin called WP-FB Comments
It's working fine, you can read my experience with it on my blog
(currently trying out Livefyre so you wont see it in action)
I'm working on a similar 2-way sync project. There isn't a way to sync comments (at least none that I can find). The way this has been accomplished is to create a new Facebook application and thus you comment thru the app, not Facebook's native comments, e.g. WPbook. Obviously, it's not ideal.
Wordbooker is another plugin that can accomplish what you're looking for -- when someone posts on Facebook, the comment is imported into Wordpress, and when someone comments on Wordpress, the comment is exported to the Facebook post too. The developer is fairly responsive if you have any issues setting it up.
