If the # is causing an issue, change the code to be: href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="....

For the gerar_cupom.php file, does that generate a unique page (unique URL) for each coupon, or is it loaded in a module position? For Facebook actions, each action has to be on a unique URL (an object). JFBConnect will set that type for each page, but if all the coupons have the same URL (since it's loading in a module on that page), that would be a problem.

Let me know more, or, if it's possible to let me see a URL where the coupon is generated that may help me understand more.

Thanks,

In the "My Coupons" table, is there a unique URL for each coupon? Again, each 'object' (page/url) of your site that the user can perform an 'action' (generate a coupon) must have a unique URL. So, at the time that the coupon is generated, will you be able to determine the URL of the 'coupon' page? Is that URL a Joomla URL?

Gotcha. So.. one last question. I know I have a lot of questions, but the problem is that the object/url (coupon) has to be unique for each action (generate). Since you aren't using a Joomla URL for the coupon, do you have a page for the product itself that may work? So, if a user is generating a coupon for Tide Detergent, instead of using the object of the 'coupon' itself, do you have a page for 'Tide Detergent'? I think that would work better in general because you could create an action that posts something like "John generated a coupon for Tide" and then the link (in Facebook) would be to the product itself.

If you set the object to the coupon URL itself, is that something that's accessible to anyone (not logged in) *and* is that something you would want to let users/guests from Facebook to go straight to?

I think what you really want is to set the object to a product page of some sort and create a 'generate' action on those product pages. That will get Facebook users to go to the product page and give them a good incentive to join and generate their own coupon.

Hope that all helps and make sense, but as always, let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Rafael,
Awesome! Glad we got to the bottom of this. With that, it sounds you *do* have an Joomla URL for an Object (the product page). I'm assuming that restaurant page is a Joomla article. Let's hope so, because then this stuff should be pretty straightforward to setup:
* Install and enable the Open Graph - Content plugin
* Create a new "Article" object. Set the type to "Restauant" or whatever you want the 'product' type to be.
* Create/update the action for 'generate' and associate it to the article object created in the previous step.

Then, update your Javascript trigger to use the URL of the product page, like:So, when triggered, an activity log entry will be made that the user generated a coupon for the restaurant and the link in Facebook will go to that restaurant page... the coupon itself will be shown to the user that clicked the button though and not made public to everyone.

Hope that helps get you going, but definitely keep us posted!

For your configuration, both the action and object are *not* built-in FB Actions. Those are custom actions you've created in Facebook, so you should uncheck that box. Also, remove your namespace from the 'type', so it's just 'cupom' and 'gerar'. Facebook will automatically add the namespace where required.

As for your Javascript call, you don't have a single quote mark around the URL, which would definitely cause a Javascript error. It should look like:And finally, that URL you have is again to your gerar_cupom.php page, which is not from Joomla. That should be going to the action product page that you want to post on Facebook (and that your object is configured for), like:Hope that gets you going,
