How to change "Content Plugin - Like" url was created by andbal1

Hi, i've created a facebook app using joomla but setting on Content Plugin - Like in article, the like url is the joomla url and not the facebook app url. For example i need change 102.socialapp-store.com/index.php/compon...ent/article/100-roma to apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/hotels-map/...ent/article/100-roma. Maybe i can solve this changing something in the jfbconnect code or directly (and i'd liek more this) change the base of my joomla installation

Andrea,
In the configuration.php file of Joomla, there is a setting for $live_site that 'may' work for some of what you're looking for. You'll really need to test that though as it can cause problems with some extensions as well.

If you want to change the URL we generate with a change to our Content plugin, you will need to edit the /libraries/sourcecoast/articleContent.php file. Look for the following block of code around line 200:

private static function _getCompleteURL($url)
    {
        $url = JRoute::_($url, true);
        $jUri = JURI::getInstance();
        $url = rtrim($jUri->toString(array('scheme', 'host')), '/') . $url;
        return $url;
    }

Change that to:

private static function _getCompleteURL($url)
    {
         return "https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map";
    }

Again, test a lot with that code as well.

Hope that helps, but keep us posted on how it goes!

Thanks,
Alex

Tx for fast reply but doesn't work, in this case the url is alwais apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/

I need apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/ is just the base of the url. For example I need change

https://102.socialapp-store.com/index.php/component/content/article/100-roma

with

https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/hotels-map/index.php/component/content/article/100-roma.

Woops. Not sure what I was thinking. Replace the code with this:

private static function _getCompleteURL($url) 
    { 
        $url = JRoute::_($url, true); 
        $url = "https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map" . $url; 
        return $url; 
    }

That should hopefully do it for you, but if not, as always, let us know!

Thanks,
Alex

In the /libraries/sourcecoast/utilities.php file around line 180, you'll see:

static function getStrippedUrl()
    {
        $href = JURI::current();

Change that last line to:

$href = 'https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/';

Try that, and see how it goes.

Thanks,
Alex

Sorry, also in this case i need

https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map

is just the base of the url, not a static link.

My goal is to change in an automatic way

https://102.socialapp-store.com/index.php/component/content/article/12643-verona

https://apps.facebook.com/hotels-map/index.php/component/content/article/12643-verona

The change in the utilities.php file I mentioned should just be setting the 'base' URL to be for your Canvas URL when used in automatic links generated by JFBConnect. The full path or query string from the current page should still be intact though.

Did you try the change and it didn't work? If so, was every URL just the Canvas URL? If so, we'll need to test some more to determine the cause.

Thanks,
Alex
