[Plugin: Simple Facebook Connect] Issue with Publishing

Hi Otto,
Killer app, but I’m having trouble publishing my posts to my FB app. I do have the “Publish to FB App” and “Publish to your FB Profile” buttons active, but when I click either, I get this box: http://www.thelazycaveman.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/fb_post.png

And when I click through to FB, I get this lovely, non-descript error: http://www.thelazycaveman.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/fb_error.png

Any thoughts? The rest of the plugin seems to be working fine, so it’s likely on FB’s end.
My app is here: https://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=139226969473478
and my site here: http://www.thelazycaveman.com/

Thanks!

I’d say that you haven’t set up your application properly (wrong URL) or something like that. Either that, or you put the API key and App Secret in the wrong boxes on the plugin screen or something.

Double check through all the settings, make sure they’re correct.

I did double check the settings and the API key, App Secret and App ID are all in the right places. The Fan box on my page is pulling data from FB, so that half of the link is working. It just seems to be that I can’t push data to the app.

Would the Canvas URL have an impact? It’s set to the same page as the Site URL. http://www.thelazycaveman.com. As are the Privacy and TOS URLs. I’ve left the Canvas Page blank.

What should I be seeing in that pop-up dialog box?
Thanks Otto!

Try taking everything off the “Facebook integration” page. That page should be entirely blank, since you’re not making a canvas application here. The only thing that you should fill in is the About and Web Site pages.

Nothing 🙁 . Any other ideas?

The FB API wouldn’t save any of my changes when trying to delete the Canvas URL, so I had to delete the app and recreate it. Again, the same problem, it will pull “likes” to the Fan Box, but won’t push any posts.

Thanks for your time.

Hey Otto,

I don’t know what changed in the past week, but all of a sudden everything started working with the publisher. Must’ve been something on FB’s end. So consider this resolved!

Thanks!
