Hi
I installed this and being a bit thick took me a good while but its working now.

The one problem I do have though is if I duplicate an ad and edit it for speed reasons of putting up an ad it doesn't show. If I insert a completely new ad it works okakokay.

Hi
Trying to install autoFacebook 2.0. When I get the step 5. Now click "Facebook Integration" on the left. Towards the bottom you should see "Installable to?". Uncheck "Users" and add a check next to "Facebook Pages" instead. I see none of this. Were did I go wrong? I am running Zencart 1.3.9.

Thanks for any help.

Just so you know it's not something you have done or should have done. It works that way for me too.

Not to sure if it is suppose to be like that. As I like the duplicating of products feature too of ZenCart. But if you use that feature then the duplicated product does not get posted to Facebook.

Try this version as this is the one I ended up installing and it works perfectly without any fuss.

It is made by the same author.

Or have a read of this.

There is some comments about that issue at the bottom of the page.

Well thats a serious pain as its okay for a couple of ads but when you have a number to create a new ad AND insert ALL its attributes as well would take a lifetime in my case.

This is a very good addon but I'm afraid its not very practical in the way it works on anything but a very very small site.

It can be made to update facebook for copied products, there are some alterations that need to be done. I offered up how to do this as well as specify when it would update fb, so for instance if you were updating a product description you could specify whether or not to post if to fb. No one took me up on the offer so I didn't bother spending the time. I guess I will post it here and perhaps update the zip in the downloads.

I couldn't get the fb app to work properly so used the older version (not the lite). My changes are for using this older version.

Hi lankeeyankee,
That sounds like a great enhancement! I think that specifying if or when you want to post to FB would be excellent. We often copy products or have products set up & deemed 'unavailable' sitting waiting until our stock arrives before we make them 'live'.
I'd love to try your version if you are still submitting it

Can anybody help me with this app, tried to follow procedures but they seem a bit dated, seems to hook thru but then gets stuck in a "reload" loop; this is point 14 on the authors web page

Thanks for any help

I've been using this for a while now and had to reinstall when i changed servers and domains.

This time around the updates are posting to the wrong facebook page. (I admin 3 other pages in addition to my store page) How can I make sure the updates go to the correct page?

Go back and do what WHOSYOURDADDY says to do to fix it.

***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
