First of all, thanks a lot for this great contribution.
I have just finished installing it and it works great, except the photo which doesn't appear.
why?

thanks to all

Check your images extension facebook developer apps only accepts .jpg, .gif and .png.

.bmp's are not accepted and if I am correct I think zencart does not like the bmp format that well either.

but it's jpg..
and I see different stores which use this addon and they have the same problem.

my FB Page is:

thank you

Okay the next thing to check is the image size that you are uploading to zencart is it a very large image that you are using for your products? If so resize them to smaller and see if that works

Also note .JPG is not accepted by facebook either it is has to be .jpg small letter extensions just something to check for.

I am using this module on several websites and I cannot see where the problem maybe as you see here all images are working and these were posted a few hours ago looking for any issues :unsure:

when I see your page, I find the same problem. then I decided to use a program to open blocked site.
then the page work correctly.
I note that the images use URL contain ( "Proxy" word ), in my country "Syria" ISP block all URL contain this word "proxy".
can I use different URL?
the URL is:
http://platform.ak.fbcdn.net/www/app_full_proxy.php?app=153337474723207&v=1&size=z&cksum=9676546873abf610597c1c4f90ea1873&src=http%3A%2F%2Fcart.mc4sy.com%2Fimages%2Ffilms2%2F1053.jpg

thank you very much

The proxy address you mention is part of the Facebook Platform unfortunately there is nothing that can be done on the zencart side.

My Zencart says my facebook was updated automatically, but I don't see that it's working. :(

Thank you!

K It looks as if Facebook changed their connect proceedure. of course this happened after the application was submitted to Zen Cart.

Anyway heres the fix.

go into your application's settings (same area from steps 5-7) and change the following:

1st you'll see a Migration tab:
Switch "New Data Permissions" to "Disabled"

2nd now click the Connect tab:
and switch your "connect url" to:
http://apps.facebook.com/

I am guessing they have changed their connect procedure again as it looks nothing like the tutorials on your website can you ammend this or give me instructions on how to get this setup please ty

Hi I've just installed Autofacebook2 as instructed everything went ok but when viewing the app it seems as if it is in a loop to load and I discovered this php error log in the facebook folder where the facebook_authorization.php was on my server.

Any ideas?

I managed to sort this out and adding a new product works but not on the Facebook page I wanted it to. I have 3 Facebook pages. Is there a way posting to s specific page or multiple pages?

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.

Just a friendly tip it is not wise to add your server account name to this forum or any other forum in which could give a wanna be hacker a reason to slam your server or account

Note: I answered your other request.

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!

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!
