Hi,

I managed to get through the custom object configuration for my component. In settings I removed app and all activity and then cleared browser cache. When I try to connect again via facebook I get this error This does not let the app post to Facebook. and there is a little Lock Icon next to it.

and then " You are using a display type of 'popup' in a large browser window or tab. For a better user experience, show this dialog with our JavaScript SDK without specifying an explicit display type. The SDK will choose the best display type for each environment. Alternatively, set height and width on your window.open() call to properly size this dialog if you have special requirements precluding you from using the SDK. This message is only visible to developers of your application."

I also get errors in the activity log

When you create the Object in the admin area, JFBConnect should add the object type automatically. Depending on your settings (mainly, if the "Built-in FB Object" setting is enabled) the namespace will be automatically added.

You should not have to use your own {SCOpenGraph type=xyz} tag on the page. If you're getting the error that the object isn't associated with the action, check:
1) The action is configured to work with the object. You need to check the right boxes in the bottom of the action configuration for any objects the action can work on.
2) Open the HTML on the page and search for "triggerAction". Make sure the URL specified is the correct page, is readable by guests (not a registered page) and when that page is viewed, has the correct og:type tags.

On a side note, just so you know, the {SCOpenGraph} tag supports an 'ns' variable to replace the namespace. So, on pages where you do want to specify the type, you can add:
{SCOpenGraph type=ns:blah}
That's good so that you don't have to remember or change your namespace at a later date.

I hope that helps, but if not, let me know,
Alex

Hey Alex,

I got this sorted out. I installed the 6.0.2 and had to delete the app then sign back in to prompt for permissions. Now I am getting the actions posted. ive also tested the post to fb wall and this is also working. Thanks for all the help.

Glad you got things going. When you first approve permissions for an app, they'll never be requested again until the user removes the app from their account. If you weren't seeing the permissions, it was likely because you had already granted them.

As always, should you need anything else, just let us know.

Thanks,
Alex
