Hey Doug, there is an html file in the download that has the instructions printed in it - just double click on the html file and it should open in your browser :)

Jamie, is there a way to change when the fb page gets updated with the new product. When I insert a new product into my store, I have it set to out of stock until I'm totally finished linking and updating metatags etc. The mod posts it before I have set it to in stock. Not sure what code would work. Can you help?
Joanne
It would be cool to have the option on the admin product update page to turn autofacebook on or off for that update.

I would really like to display the Nett Price in facebook. The price that is displayed comes from price_sorter in the database, but the nett price is not stored in the database (or I can't find it).

Hi, I got this module to work but the product description in Facebook shows html-tags and strange characters instead of swedish å.ä.ö? Anyone ran into this before?

hi i got this to work with the zen_get_products_actual_price($products_id) i did have to use the substring to get rid of the zeros
not sure what way this would work with taxes etc but give it a try
$price = substr(zen_get_products_actual_price($products_id),0,-2);

i have added a switch on a per product basis, this switch works either creating a new product or editing an existing product, it defaults to no everytime you edit or create a product warning you that it has changed to no if it was previously set to yes
ok here is what i done, few weeks ago but think this is everything
any experienced zenners out there could look at the code in case there is something not done properly
1. Backup your database
2. Backup YOUR ADMIN/includes/modules/update_product.php
3. Backup YOUR ADMIN/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
1. back up database then run the following sql from your zcadmin
ALTER TABLE products ADD products_update_social_media tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0';
2. edit YOUR ADMIN/includes/modules/update_product.php (sample from v1.51)
find the following code
$sql_data_array = array('products_quantity' => $products_quantity,
'products_type' => zen_db_prepare_input($_GET['product_type']),
'products_model' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_model']),
'products_price' => $products_price,
'products_date_available' => $products_date_available,
'products_weight' => $products_weight,
'products_status' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['products_status']),
'products_virtual' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['products_virtual']),
'products_tax_class_id' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['products_tax_class_id']),
'manufacturers_id' => $manufacturers_id,
'products_quantity_order_min' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_quantity_order_min']),
'products_quantity_order_units' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_quantity_order_units']),
'products_priced_by_attribute' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_priced_by_attribute']),
'product_is_free' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['product_is_free']),
'product_is_call' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['product_is_call']),
'products_quantity_mixed' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_quantity_mixed']),
'product_is_always_free_shipping' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['product_is_always_free_shipping']),
'products_qty_box_status' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_qty_box_status']),
'products_quantity_order_max' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_quantity_order_max']),
'products_sort_order' => (int)zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_sort_order']),
'products_discount_type' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_discount_type']),
'products_discount_type_from' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_discount_type_from']),
'products_price_sorter' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_price_sorter'])
);
add the following code
'products_update_social_media' => zen_db_prepare_input((int)$_POST['products_update_social_media']),
below
'products_priced_by_attribute' => zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['products_priced_by_attribute']),
during your original install you added the following code to this file
//AutoFacebook
$app_id = "Your App_ID Here"; //given when you created app
$app_secret = "Your App Secret Code Here"; //given when you created app
$page_id = "Page ID Here"; //obtained from running facebook_authorization.php from your browser
$page_token = "Page Token Here"; //long number obtained from facebook_authorization.php
$store_name = "Your Store"; // store name i.e. "Mary's Car Shop", or "MikesCupcakes.com."
$store_url = 'http://www.yourdomain.com'; //path to your store without the trailing "/"
$cur = '$'; //change to your currency symbol($, €, £, ¥, etc.). Assumes symbol comes in front of numbers
$new_message = "New Product Added"; // change to whatever or leave the same. i.e "New Cupcake!"
// No Need to edit below here.
$prod_image = $store_url . "/images/" . $_POST['products_image'];
$price = $products_price;
$prod_url = $store_url . '/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=' . $current_category_id . '&products_id=' . $products_id;
$prod_name = $_POST['products_name'][$_SESSION['languages_id']];
//webelity.com changed this line below to strip html tags from descriptions (Facebook does not support standard html input on descriptions via api calls)
$prod_description = $_POST['products_description'][$_SESSION['languages_id']];
//webelity.com changed this line below to strip html tags from descriptions (Facebook does not support standard html input on descriptions via api calls)
$info_strip = preg_replace('/(<\/[^>]+?>)(<[^>\/][^>]*?>)/', '$1 $2', $prod_description);
$description_stripped = strip_tags($info_strip);
//webelity.com 1-15-2012 added check to insure length does not reach the 10,000 character limit on descriptions in facebook.
$charset = 'UTF-8';
$no_description = 0;
$length = 9996;
if(mb_strlen($description_stripped, $charset) > $length) {
$facebook_description = mb_substr($description_stripped, 0, $length, $charset) . '...';
}
elseif(mb_strlen($description_stripped, $charset) == $no_description)
{
$facebook_description = "No description provided for this product.";
}
else
{
$facebook_description = $description_stripped;
}
include_once 'facebook/facebook.php';
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => $app_id,
'secret' => $app_secret,
'cookie' => true, )
);
// webelity.com modfied currancy and price information and added facebook_description to lower array
$attachment = array(
'access_token' => $page_token,
'message' => $new_message . " - " . $prod_name,
'name' => $prod_name,
'link' => $prod_url,
'caption' => 'Price: ' . $cur . $price,
'description' => $facebook_description,
'picture' => $prod_image
);
try {
$status = $facebook->api($page_id.'/feed', 'post', $attachment);
$messageStack->add_session('Facebook was successfully updated!', 'success');
}
catch (FacebookApiException $fbe){
$fberror = $fbe->result['error']['message'];
$messageStack->add_session('Facebook Error: '.$fberror, 'error');
}
we need to add our code here for switch so it will now look like this
//AutoFacebook
if ($_POST['products_update_social_media'] == '1') {
$app_id = "Your App_ID Here"; //given when you created app
$app_secret = "Your App Secret Code Here"; //given when you created app
$page_id = "Page ID Here"; //obtained from running facebook_authorization.php from your browser
$page_token = "Page Token Here"; //long number obtained from facebook_authorization.php
$store_name = "Your Store"; // store name i.e. "Mary's Car Shop", or "MikesCupcakes.com."
$store_url = 'http://www.yourdomain.com'; //path to your store without the trailing "/"
$cur = '$'; //change to your currency symbol($, €, £, ¥, etc.). Assumes symbol comes in front of numbers
$new_message = "New Product Added"; // change to whatever or leave the same. i.e "New Cupcake!"
// No Need to edit below here.
$prod_image = $store_url . "/images/" . $_POST['products_image'];
$price = $products_price;
$prod_url = $store_url . '/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=' . $current_category_id . '&products_id=' . $products_id;
$prod_name = $_POST['products_name'][$_SESSION['languages_id']];
//webelity.com changed this line below to strip html tags from descriptions (Facebook does not support standard html input on descriptions via api calls)
$prod_description = $_POST['products_description'][$_SESSION['languages_id']];
//webelity.com changed this line below to strip html tags from descriptions (Facebook does not support standard html input on descriptions via api calls)
$info_strip = preg_replace('/(<\/[^>]+?>)(<[^>\/][^>]*?>)/', '$1 $2', $prod_description);
$description_stripped = strip_tags($info_strip);
//webelity.com 1-15-2012 added check to insure length does not reach the 10,000 character limit on descriptions in facebook.
$charset = 'UTF-8';
$no_description = 0;
$length = 9996;
if(mb_strlen($description_stripped, $charset) > $length) {
$facebook_description = mb_substr($description_stripped, 0, $length, $charset) . '...';
}
elseif(mb_strlen($description_stripped, $charset) == $no_description)
{
$facebook_description = "No description provided for this product.";
}
else
{
$facebook_description = $description_stripped;
}
include_once 'facebook/facebook.php';
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => $app_id,
'secret' => $app_secret,
'cookie' => true, )
);
// webelity.com modfied currancy and price information and added facebook_description to lower array
$attachment = array(
'access_token' => $page_token,
'message' => $new_message . " - " . $prod_name,
'name' => $prod_name,
'link' => $prod_url,
'caption' => 'Price: ' . $cur . $price,
'description' => $facebook_description,
'picture' => $prod_image
);
try {
$status = $facebook->api($page_id.'/feed', 'post', $attachment);
$messageStack->add_session('Facebook was successfully updated!', 'success');
}
catch (FacebookApiException $fbe){
$fberror = $fbe->result['error']['message'];
$messageStack->add_session('Facebook Error: '.$fberror, 'error');
}
}
so all i have done above is added
if ($_POST['products_update_social_media'] == '1') {
to the start of your original autofacebook code and
}
to the end of your original autofacebook code.
remember the above complete code needs to be added in two sections of the ADMIN/includes/modules/update_product.php file
after
//// INSERT PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC INSERTS HERE //////
and after
//// INSERT PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC *UPDATES* HERE //////
this means the switch works on both new products and updating product
3. edit YOUR ADMIN/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
find

upload to YOUR ADMIN/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/
or add the two defines to your YOUR ADMIN/includes/languages/english/product.php
hopefully this is everything. please remember im not an expert on this and will help if i can but do backup first, you only need to backup database and 2 files so not a big job
hope this helps someone and if any of the experienced zenners wish to correct anything this would be much appreciated
i also created the same as the above for the autotwitter module so you have 2 switches if anyone also uses this
thanks

Hi, I got this module to work but the product description in Facebook shows html-tags and strange characters instead of swedish å.ä.ö? Anyone ran into this before?
You can have a look for a solution here:
hxxp://stackoverflow.com/questions/1890854/how-to-replace-special-characters-with-the-ones-theyre-based-on-in-php
The necessary changes needs to be made in autofacebook module only.
I would give more help than this, but i don`t have the time.
Good luck!

If you read older posts you'll find many solutions for this. I finaly converted my files and database to utf-8 and the module worked perfect with the description. :P

If everything else fails.... read the f@#$%ing manual :)

I guess you need the total price with taxes :)
Just use replace with this
//$price = $products_price;
$price = $_POST['products_price_gross'];

Does this delay the posting to FB or does it stop it altogether?

hi,
its just a switch so leave off when creating your product, once you finish doing what you are doing linking and metatags etc and ready to switch the product to instock while editing the product for instock also switch facebook to on, this should update your facebook,
also if you have a product on your site that you would like on facebook just edit product and switch facebook to on and this product will update to facebook
bn
Zen Follower
Yeah, it's not a bad idea, however, when I turn the product back on, I do it from the category list, I don't go back in to edit the product to turn it on, so this would be an extra step to take. Seems to me that there should be something in the code that could be changed or something added, so that it would automatically send it to FB when I activate it.
I just Jamie isn't checking this thread anymore, it's sad, because it's a really good mod, just needs a little improvement :(

so every time you switch an item active it updates facebook with that product ?
is this what you are looking
bn
Zen Follower
That is EXACTLY what I'm looking for yayyyy someone understands me lol
I think it's in the categories.php file - it looks up the status of the product - now if there's a way to put that in with the auto FB code that would be awesome :)
// change the status of categories and products
zen_set_time_limit(600);
for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($categories); $i<$n; $i++) {
if ($_POST['categories_status'] == '1') {
$categories_status = '0';
$products_status = '0';
} else {
$categories_status = '1';
$products_status = '1';

It didn't work :(
Well first it was because the folders had to be in the same directory as the categories.php file, as they did in the updateproduct.php folder.
But then it didn't get posted to Facebook, and the red icon wouldn't change to green either :(
Thank you SO much for trying for me though, I really appreciate it :)

Hi.
I have installed this and when I put a new item on zencart the message appears saying it has posted to facebook but nothing appears. site is https://www.bikeporn.co.uk and facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bikeporncouk/166983630118189. If anyone has any ideas as to why it's not working would really appreciate some input. Guess I am probably doing something silly but cannot work out what.
Thanks in advance

I have an older version of zen cart installed, that's probably why :( I'm gonna update it but not sure when

hi i got this to work with the zen_get_products_actual_price($products_id) i did have to use the substring to get rid of the zeros
not sure what way this would work with taxes etc but give it a try
$price = substr(zen_get_products_actual_price($products_id),0,-2);

Tell staff why this post should be reviewed.
