AutoFacebook [Support]

[vickula]

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

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.

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.

Hi I have a problem with autoFacebook lite's setting. It doesn't saves my info, every time I reload the page the fields are empty! Therefore I can't use the script on my zen cart shop.

Can you help me?

Thx!

Not much I can do for you on this one, I do not and never used the light version. My apologies.

I tried to install autofacebook 2.0 but doesn't function. I don't know where is the problem...

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?

[Ducati87]

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

Thanks so much.

***IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR THOSE WHO MANAGE SEVERAL FACEBOOK PAGES***

Like most I have been scratching my head on how to get this app from Jamielife (Thanks Jamielife) to post new products in our zen cart to the proper Fan Page/Business Page.

Each fan page has its own page id and access token. The easy part was getting the page ID the hard part was figuring out how to get the the access token for the specific page.

After you have gone through the initial steps outlined by Jamielife to get the app authorized the next steps will allow you to have this app post to the page of your choosing.

Here is the solution.:

1. Run this link in your Browser. Please replace ~URL~ with your connect URL (Facebook Application dialog) and ~APPID~ with your application ID


You will need to add https// to the following links




If done correctly you get your zen cart with the URL Parameter Access Token

2. This URL will return to you a URL parameter access_token.
3. Save the token somewhere;
4. Load This URL. Replace ~TOKEN~ with the token received from Facebook at point 2.



5. As a result you will get the json with all your pages and all access tokens. Save them somewhere;

Once you have this data it is simple going into the update_product.php at lines 88-92 and change them according to the information associated with the specific page that you want to mod to post to.

Test to make sure it works

I have tested it on 1.3.9f with the latest version of Jamielife's mod with success

Good Luck

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! This worked, finally. Whew!
