Thanks @acids76 – others have reported this before too, but I’m not sure how to address it as it works on my blog.
Note that on http://apps.facebook.com/openparenthesis/ if you hover over the “Next Page” link, it points to:
http://apps.facebook.com/openparenthesis/page/2
Whereas when I hover over that same link on http://apps.facebook.com/acidstales/, it just points to:
http://apps.facebook.com/acidstales/
The question is why.
I’ve got wpbook installed on three different blogs for testing purposes, and all three are working.
The functions that draw those links are get_next_posts_link(); and get_previous_posts_link(); (these are just regular WordPress functions often used in themes).
The functions are impacted by the filtering we’re doing to strip off the regular blog domain and stick in apps.facebook.com/appname instead – maybe the issue is that you’re using querystring style permalinks?
Can you use “pretty permalinks” of the /131 style, instead of http://apps.facebook.com/acidstales/?p=602
Anyone else having the issue @acids76 is having?
Did a bit of digging – looks like the querystring based permalinks is the issue.
In wpbook.php, we filter the page number links differently, using:
add_filter('get_pagenum_link','fb_filter_postlink_no_qs',1,1);
So whenever WordPress is drawing the next/prev page links, it gets filtered by our fb_filter_postlink_no_qs function, which chops off the query string.
Honestly I can’t remember why we did it this way, so I’ll have to investigate what happens if we put it back – it may be that the query string being passed along screws up the Facebook ‘signed_request’ stuff also being passed in qs.
Hmm. Just tried it by changing:
add_filter('get_pagenum_link','fb_filter_postlink_no_qs',1,1);
To:
add_filter('get_pagenum_link','fb_filter_postlink',1,1);
(Removing the _no_qs from fb_filter_postlink)
And it seems to work.
@bandonrandon, do you remember why we originally went with a no qs approach? Might be that this changed when we went to POST for Canvas – that it no longer causes problems to use the querystring this way but once did?
on my blog i have never used any kind of permalink, i use the default one
i will try to modify add_filter call as you said as soon as i can. thanks for the tips
i have tried to modify as you suggested and now i can see other pages!
Great. Still haven’t remembered why we were hiding query strings like that in the first place, so maybe we can just make this change in the next release.
I’ve added the Blog fuctionality to my own website and it works. I have a problem with the “Continue reading” link. It doesn’t go anywhere when clicked.
Would you mind taking a look?

…maybe because you have URL with spaces? did you try to use different url location for blog?
@chauvir
what kind of version of WordPress are you using?
I downloaded the newest version. 3.?
strange behaviour…. if you don’t put the “more link” in the post, does it work all?
I’m not sure. I’m still learning how to do this.
i mean, did yoy try to write a post without “more link” or it’s added by itself by the template?
The More link is added by the this code on my web page:
<?php
require(‘../blog/wp-blog-header.php’);
?>
<?php
$posts = get_posts(‘numberposts=10&order=ASC&orderby=post_title’);
foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
<?php the_date(); echo “
“; ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php
endforeach;
?>
