got a bit confused as facebook has changed its developer pages about but i got there in the end!

now i have a bit of a problem i want magpie to parse my podcast enclosures too, ive tried swapping the rss_parse.inc file with the hacked one available to make it display enclosures but im coning up short. probably cos im not that great with php.

im wondering have you tried doing this or can you give me any help with this?

many thanks ben

I edited the pages using notepad

any ideas?

Tim I think this might provide the information you’re looking for but I’m afraid I’m not technical enough to be able to figure it out for myself:

http://www.rioleo.org/facebook-profile-box-showing-no-content.php

Thanks for the excellent tutorial by the way.

I’m glad it’s not just some mistake I made – can’t wait for the fix :)

By the way, I’m really enjoying reading your blog. I only found the site a few weeks ago, but it’s really encouraging and useful! I’m actually only 17, and not a youth leader (yet!) but I go along to a youth group and we’re hoping to start a new one which is more Christ-focused (the other is more like a youth club, with some Christianity mixed in).

Anyway thanks for everything. I look forward to seeing a fix sometime soon.

Yours in Him,
Dan

I really like this. However, I’ve got one problem with it – while the content displays fine in the boxes area of the profile (wide), it doesn’t work for having a profile box on the main (wall) page of the users profile.

Everything shows up OK in the wide (boxes) area, but I get a message “No content to display…this box will not be visible on your profile until this application adds content to it” in the narrow box. It’s a shame, because I think if it worked fine on both the wide and narrow bits, it would be a fantastic piece of code.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

God bless,
Dan

I am now getting the same error as Evan Wagstaffe, if anyone has any ideas as to how to get around this error, it would be greatly appreciated!

(Evan if you have found a solution, feel free to email me, whu9105[at]yahoo[dot]co[dot]uk)

On a traffic generating note, this application is phenomenal…since mine has not been working, my traffic has gone down from about 1000 a day to about 300 a day. Gutted!

“No data stored for fb:ref url:’.$rss_url.’. Use fbml.refreshRefUrl to refresh this data.”

Sounds like its looking for the URL to my rss.php file and not finding it? I definitely set it in the conf file….suggestions?

Apparently that’s the text that everyone dreads. I’ve gone back and redone all the steps 3 times with no success. How can I make it to the add application page?

Could there be an error on the FTP loading side? Its the only part not explictly covered in the guide. I used FileZilla and loaded all the files into a /facebook directory but still not luck.

Thanks,

About 404 Issue; use ip address instead of domain name. I discovered that facebook has some problems during resolving domain names. If dns resolve fails, facebook return 404 error.

Has anyone figured out how to utilize the news feeds / notifications with this application? It would be INFINITELY more useful if there was that viral quality to it…

….thanks all the same!!

Evertyhing is working fine and when I click on the application link in my mini-feed bit of my profile, it takes me to the application home page bit and shows my feeds. Perfect…

…however, when I scroll through my profile and find the profile box that has been placed there for my application, it says:

“No content to display.

This box will not be visible to people who view your profile until this application adds content to it.”

which unfortunately is a little bit of a problem because that is the feature that I was really kind of hoping to work!!

Any ideas?

Here is a link to my app:

many thanks for your time,

God Bless you all, Sam

What can I do if I cant get my webserver to accept php5? I can only run php 4. Do you have any suggestions for me?
Please, any help will be appreciated!

My facebook application worked perfectly until this morning when I noticed this error. Can anybody tell me what this means? I didn’t change a thing to the code so I don’t know why this would happen out of nowhere.

Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in /hermes/bosweb/web123/b1232/sl.xxxx/public_html/fb/rss.php on line 20

If you rename your application’s php files from “.php” to “.php5″ and then edit the “require” lines in index and so on to reflect the new extension, it’ll work like a charm. I had to do this because my blog was using .php and using a .htaccess file messed everything up.

first i was gettting Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘{’ messages
in canvas area, now that ive changed the htaccess.txt to .htaccess i just get an error 404 message. I dont understand it. I hope there is something can be done
i think my hosting company does do php 4 & 5 together

A similar problem also prevents me from getting an infinite access key.

Any help suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I am hosting my app in godaddy. I read on different blogs there are some callback timeout issue with godday. Not sure if that’s why I am getting this error.

Any help will be much appreciated.

The short answer to your question about social networking sites being unsafe and full of predators, though, is that it’s all totally false. These are extremely rare stories that the media jumps on and exaggerates because hype sells and creating fear generates more viewers. Every legitimate study out there shows that the exact opposite is true, so go with the facts, not the hype.

Thoughts?

Is there any way to add code so that when the RSS feed is updated, it puts a message in the subscriber’s newsfeed or minifeed?

Thanks,
Jeff

Can’t figure out why?

So is that why when I log in I get these errors:
FBML Error (line 5): illegal tag “base” under “fb:canvas”

FBML Error (line 6): illegal tag “meta” under “fb:canvas”

FBML Error (line 7): illegal tag “link” under “fb:canvas”

FBML Error (line 8): illegal tag “link” under “fb:canvas”

FBML Error (line 10): illegal tag “body” under “fb:canvas”

I can not remember if that doc was my own creation or if it was a part of the zipped package from Tim.

The old line of code is:
$facebook->api_client->profile_setFBML(”, $user);

Literally cut that line out and replace it EXACTLY as they say on Facebook:
$facebook->api_client->profile_setFBML(”, 12800193, ‘profile FBML here’, ‘profile action fbml here’, ‘mobile fbml here’);

It’s odd looking, but it works!

I was told to use this new FB code:

$facebook->api_client->profile_setFBML(”, 12800193, ‘profile FBML here’, ‘profile action fbml here’, ‘mobile fbml here’);

but I’m not sure what to enter in “profile FBML here”

Any suggestions?

Turns out I was using an ATOM feed… not an RSS feed… there’s obviously a difference. That was the issue. I changed FeedBurner to convert the feed… and now it works great!

I fixed it.

Thanks again for this info…

For some reason, the “description” is not showing up… just the title of the posts. I’ve checked my feeds… and everything is functioning. For some reason it’s lost when it filters from my feed to the actual app. Any thoughts?

My feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/groundlevelupdates/

My app: http://apps.facebook.com/groundlevel/

AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php

AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php4

This is a fantastic gift to us – I appreciate your willingness to do all of this legwork. I have made it up to step 10 but am getting the following error at http://apps.facebook.com/mikeferber/:

Runtime errors:

Any thoughts? Thanks!!!

If you downloaded the old package, you’ll need to download the new one. It contains updated files you need.

1. Delete the friendselect.php file from your host. It’s deprecated and is no longer needed.

2. Overwrite facebook.php and facebookapi_php5_restlib.php on your host with the new ones in this package.

3. Open invite.php from this package and follow the directions above in step 7.C. Then overwrite the existing file on your host with this new one.

The invite system is pretty nice, eh? :)

I’ll have to figure it out and update the zip package with a new invite file. Thanks for the heads up! I’ll post here when I get it updated.
