Is there a way for the Request for Permission page to pop up when new users click on the "Go to App" button, which would automatically register new users to my website? See Example Pic.

We've helped other user's 'force' a login to Facebook on their site.. however, it's something that would have to be for any user's visiting your site. We could help you set it up so on only a specific page, the login pop-up will always come up, so it's not on every page. Again though, however, it's a pop-up, and not a modal, so users can ignore it and navigate around it.

The picture you show above is when a user logs into an app that is hosted within Facebook, that makes things easier. All the perms pop-ups in Facebook are part of the site, so they can be used to deny access to areas, whereas Facebook doesn't let us do the same thing on websites.. as they don't want to let admins force registration or granting of permissions.

Hope that makes sense, but let us know if you need more info,
Alex

Do you have an example Facebook page that does this that we can look at? Facebook has added new features for configuring the Auth Dialog box recently, but still not sure of the best way to do what you're looking for so that it's a forced action required by the user.

I believe the main section you'll be needing to configure is in the "Settings -> Auth Dialog" section of your app, and then configuring the "Authenticated Referrals" area. However, from quick testing, we couldn't get that to do what you're looking for.

Hope that helps,
Alex
