AutoFacebook [Support]

jamielife:

This could be due to any number of things missed in the installation.
I would remove the Application from your fan page (you can do this from your applications page) go back and repeat the tutorial starting at step 8. (http://htmyell.com/autofacebook-for-zen-cart/)
also

1. make sure the $user_id in steps 11 and 18 are set to the id of your facebook fan page.
2. make sure you add your application to your fan page (step 13)
   and
3. that you install the application to your fan page. (steps 14-16).

@VisExp the mod uses the facebook api and jquery to make the calls, you could (in theory) copy the code and (if needed) adjust the paths to the php folder and use it with Easy Populate if you know what vars they're using etc, however I don't know anything about Easy Populate, and if you arent sure what you're doing I wouldnt advise it.

@deathman2006: thanks for letting us know. Glad to hear it.

I was just wondering if anyone had managed to make this mod work with easy populate yet? I don't see any more references to it in this thread after the above post.

when I'm adding products there is usually lots of them, doing them one by one wouldn't be fun for me so I really want to use easy pop, but I like the sound of this mod too - well done the developer

First of all, thank you very much for this wonderful plug in!!

I noticed only new products are published on facebook and twitter. Is it possible to publish updated products as well, since I have a lot of sales in my store. Facebook and twitter followers will miss those sales.....

Also, whenever I make changes to the product description, I wish the updates can be published too.

Thank you for help!!

jamielife:

For anyone who'd like to help me figure out this problem with the descriptions/price/whatever not showing up

Try this.

echo "<pre>";
var_dump($_POST);
exit;

After you click 'preview' and then 'insert' you should see a bunch of text. Copy it and paste it in a PM to me.

hi, 

I would love to volunteer to have a try. An message was sent to you.

Hi everyone, sorry for my absense, things got crazy with work and I havent had time to reaquaint myself with all the new facebook changes. I'll be developing a new version of autoFacebok here soon. I will be reviewing all the problems posted as well as any suggestions you have them, and hopefully fix them as soon as possible.

Sorry for any inconvenience,

Jamie

Does thiis mod still work if the products are added though "Easy Populate"?

I have no idea. As a guess I would say no. I've never used EP, but I'll look into it when I sit work on an update.

In the meantime if anyone is using autoTweet, please upgrade to version 3 (check the autoTweet thread) as the current version might stop working after August 16th.

Thanks

Glad to see you're back and hope to see an updated version of AutoFacebook soon. I've been experiencing the Error Message: next is not owned by the application, as well.. Using v1.3.9e at the moment..

Any update on a fix for this?

Looking forward for the new version... Thanks Jamie...

Having problems with the AutoFacebook OG module, I get errors on the catalog side that say:

Warning: extract() [function.extract]: First argument should be an array in /home/totalemi/public_html/includes/templates/theme390/common/html_header.php on line 49

Warning: extract() [function.extract]: First argument should be an array in /home/totalemi/public_html/includes/templates/theme390/common/html_header.php on line 50

Any ideas why this is and how to stop it?

Hello,

just installing AutoFacebook on new installation of Zen-Cart.

After step 13 where I should go to the "Go to Application" I am getting error "Received HTTP error code 404 while loading http://mysite.com/catalog/fbcanavas/?_fb_fromhash=95eaf43550e993628e15f8eae6af5eee"

I followed all steps as described in tutorial.
I uploaded only fbcanavas folder in /catalog folder. In index.php data is ok.

Please help.

A lot of people are having the same issue. This add on will not work until the author issues a rewrite due to facebook changes.

Thanks for the info CountryCharm:smile::smile:

Will I get informed when AutoFacebook is updated ?

Amanda099,
You will have to check back here every so often to see if the author has made any updates. we have been waiting for quite some time. So please be patient.

Gordon,
Facebook has made major changes to their applications and continue to do so almost daily.
Your 404 error is the call back from Facebook.

hi jamie heres another for you to ponder over soory for this but as i said i new to this

message reads

API Error Code: 100
API Error Description: Invalid parameter
Error Message: When enabling the profile selector, an app may not request permissions that do not apply to all profiles in the selector. Note: You are seeing this message because you are a developer of this application. For regular users, inapplicable permissions are silently ignored

thanks again

hello,

autoFacebook 2.0 is now available! :clap:

This should fix the API Error Code: 100 issue a lot of people are having.

And hopefully a lot of other stuff as well.

It will also now give you Zen-Cart style messages letting you know what went wrong or if it was a success when you add a product.

it's been uploaded to the contirbutions section but for those of you who don't want to wait it's available at http://htmyell.com/autofacebook-2-0/

As always I will try my best to support this via this thread and my site.

Let me know what you think,
Jamie

Hi Folks,

Just installed version 2 on http://www.kiwisouvenirs.com linked to facebook group http://www.facebook.com/pages/New-Zealand-Gifts-Souvenirs/258397449840?ref=mf

The installation was straight forward and much easier than version 1.

Big THANK YOU to Jamie for providing us non programmers with a great marketing tool.
