AutoFacebook [Support]

You can only post to one page specified, in which you have to put in the Page ID in the field

$page_id = "Your page ID"; //obtained from running facebook_authorization.php from your browser

Whatever page you add here you must allow the app to connect to it, once complete it will post to the page you entered.

I appreciate this but how to I specify which page I want so the facebook_authorization.php can generate the page ID for the desired page? It seems to just do the last page I added to facebook!

Thanks for the other tip too!

Can you please state what page you want to add the products to, are you wanting to use the page id generated by the facebook authorization or your personal profile page?

I have created 3 pages on my facebook account for different things and these are not my personal profile.

No 1 is my shop
No 2 is a community page
No 3 is my catering business

I wanted autofacebook to update Facebook Page No 1 when I add new products to my online webshop but after following all instructions it updated Facebook Page No 3.

I can't see anywhere in the instructions I have followed that lets me select which facebook page on my account I would like to post to, so I'm assuming the facebook_authorization.php generates the page ID for the last page I added to my account.

What you want to do is go through the entire process create the page id etc with the facebook authorization file.

Once this is completed you have all your API secret and app id add all that to the proper lines in update_product.php put the page ID of your Shop page instead of the Page ID created in the process, once this is completed saved and uploaded to your ftp go to your application page (profile) and allow the appilication access the Shop Profile page this is all you have to do

Yes but I thought the whole point of the facebook_authorization.php was to find the page ID.

How do I find my page ID otherwise?

Sorry if I'm being thick

Go to your store profile page and it will be the numbers you see at the end of the URL for example pages/Host-99-Web-Hosting/246582107824 <-- you only need the numbers not the full URL of your profile page.

Thanks for that - it works now!

I finally got this contribution to work! YEAH! However, it was posting to the wrong FB page, but thanks to the replies here, that's fixed.

But now, since I have set it to the correct FB page, it is giving me an error when I input a new product:
Error Facebook Error: (#200) Posts where the actor is a page cannot also include a target_id

Has anyone else experienced this one?

Can anyone tell me how to setup autofacebook 2.0? Because there are some things that I don't understand.

Thanks so much.
