    When I make a post and publish … goes to facebook – great.

    When I edit that post and update … also goes to facebook. So if I have like 3-4 updates or text edits in a row it blows up my facebook page with repeat posts.

    What can I do about this?

    These are also custom post types – which work fine, but the options window is not visible on the post edit screen to turn on and off … either all or nothing – which may be the issue, but I think it should check that the post exists before just publishing to facebook on every update of the post …

    Also I noticed an odd thing when I went to look at my settings to see if there was an option somewhere. It said it wasnt connected and I had to re-authorize my account. Log said …

    Not a WB user (1) and no overide – give up

    Would love to get this worked out, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Okay, thanks. Did the log tell you anything? Also – what happens if there are comments during the “down time”. Will they update when I reset the connection, or just miss importing/exporting all together?

    Heading to bed, will check back in AM.

    Thanks again.

    Yes:

    Access Token Exchange 2013-03-02 01:04:15 Access token returns –
    Access Token Exchange 2013-03-02 01:04:15 Return code is –
    Access Token Exchange 2013-03-02 01:04:15 Access token was

    This tells me that your server can’t see https://wordbooker.tty.org.uk

    If your server can’t see that then things wont work.

    2.2 supports Curl and WP_HTTP – which one does it report its using (its in the information section)

    I see both in the info … see below … but Im still confused why it works for a few hours, sometimes even a day or 2, and then it fails. Its still active now from my last reset.

    If your server cant see wordbooker.tty.org.uk then the token can’t exchange which means the short term token given by FB can’t be swapped for a long life one

    Okay. So then how do I fix that? Any ideas?

    Do you know your server IP address – it could be that its been firewalled at my end due to the amount of spam coming out of some hosting companies.

    You can check if you can access my server by doing a wget https://wordbooker.tty.org.uk from the command line on your server.

    If that doesn’t work then you’ll need to ask why hostgator are blocking things.

    Server IP is 184.173.199.230

    I had them test the wget as well and they said that it works fine for http, not https.

    Then I asked if I could enable it for https, and they replied that it was on your end, but I could use http and it will work. Please advise.

    They also asked me which port you were trying to connect through.

    I see no access from that IP address at all

    https is enabled and working..

    I am not trying to connect through any port – Wordbooker makes CURL calls and one of those is to the https server on wordbooker.tty.org.uk. So you need to have it that your server can make CURL calls to the https service on wordbooker.tty.org.uk

    Okay, thank you.

    Would it matter that both of these settings are currently “unchecked”?

    Use Curl for Facebook interface calls :

    By default Wordbooker 2.2 defaults to not using curl to make it more resilient (a lot of shared hosting packages lock curl out). If curl IS available then you can switch to it .. the IPv4 setting is for some servers running IPv6 as well as 4 when DNS resolution doesn’t work as expected.

    Okay, now Im confused, sorry. Servers are not my thing.

    So I need to have my server make CURL calls to https service on your site – but version 2.2 by default does not use CURL, so only check the box if I have CURL available than I check the box to switch to it.

    So if by default, CURL is not used because shared hosting packages block it out (typically) … they how would I need fr my shared hosting package to allow CURL calls to your https server?

    Im annoyed … not with you, but Im just lost on this stuff and confused about what I need.

    Plugin Author Steve

    If possible using curl is better but its not always possible to make curl connections due to host limitations which is why Wordbooker supports WP_HTTP calls too if you are running 2.2

    So what we know now is that WP_HTTP calls are blocked (as it can’t make the token exchange) and CURL is also blocked (as it didn’t work under 2.1).

    I have checked my firewall and your server IP is not blocked. So the problem lies with your hosting company.

    Do you have command line access to your server?

    Yesterday they said they were able to wget from http, but not https. Wouldnt the WP_HTTP … be http that I “can” access?

    In a nutshell … when I am on chat with hostgator … what do I need to ask them for?

    Plugin Author Steve

    (@steveatty)

    13 years, 2 months ago

    I dont know… I find it hard to believe that wget worked for http but not https.

    WP_HTTP can’t see it either which suggests something is very wrong which is why I asked if you have command line access to the server

    I do not. Its just a shared account. Here is what they gave me yesterday when I was on chat with them about wget …

    Here is what I got back from wget:
