Hello cmevt ,

Sorry for late reply to this,
When you hitting this error, that mean you're set wrong your site URL/domain name in your Facebook apps, can you check again with your Facebook apps inside the domain name field is it put correct format like domainname.com, and other URL part you should put http://domainname.com

If still can't make it work, please provide us with your Joomla backend, Facebook access and FTP access so we can help you check on this? Please advise.

I'll have more time to continue with this in the weekend. Is that ok?

Chris

By the way, I have reconfigure with your Facebook apps (OPTS), can you try click "revoke access from the Facebook autopost from your backend > Easyblog > Autopost > Facebook, then put the Apps ID and App Secret in your Easyblog Facebook autopost setting page, put your group ID in that Facebook group ID field and save.
The last step is click on the "Sign in with facebook", then click next until complete.

Hope this help.

Hello Arlex,

Followed your instructions successfully, but the Revoke link still remains visible. Is that ok?

Chris

Hello cmevt,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Yes, the Revoke link should be visible after your done Facebook authorization. Can you try publish a blog post and see how it goes? Please advise.
If the issues still persists, can i have you Joomla backend access? because I'm not able to access.

Hello,

I created a new blog post (http://onlinepastrytrainingschool.com/index.php/en/easyblog-2), but it did not seem to be in Facebook. The one that is there (of the same article) I copied and paste it myself.

See site details for authorization.

thank you,
Chris

Hello cmevt,

It seems like you provided that login credential is not working, please advise.

Warning

Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.

Hi Arlex,

I checked and your account is set as super user. Hope this will work.

Chris

Hello Cmevt,

Yes, now i can able to access in your Joomla backend
But I can't access your Facebook account

Please re-enter your password

The password you entered is incorrect. Please try again (make sure your caps lock is off).



Forgot your password? Request a new one.

I also noticed that you're using the older version of Easyblog and some of the setting is not set correct from your Easyblog Facebook autopost configuration page, can you update to latest version then click "revoke access" and "Sign in with Facebook" and see how it goes?

Hello Arlex,

OK. I updated the Easyblog extensioin and changed the facebook password (please see site details).

Hello Cmevt,

Everything is work fine now. Please have a check your blog post autopost in your group ( http://screencast.com/t/uL5yxNy1yKU )

Hi Arlex,

Thank so much, everything seems to be working!

Just have a question. Is ii better to do auto posting in this facebook page; https://www.facebook.com/cmevideos OR in this facebook page (homepage); https://www.facebook.com/groups/710767768959234/

Which way am I more visible to the public?

Thanks again,
Chris

Hello cmevt,

You're welcome,
If I'm not wrong,
https://www.facebook.com/cmevideos (this is your Facebook profile page)
https://www.facebook.com/groups/710767768959234/ (this is group page)
In my opinion, that was depend on what your demand, about the Facebook group also can set this group to public, so every public user also can access and view the stream as your current Facebook group.

If I may ask, do you know how to set my Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/710767768959234/) to public?

thank you for all your help,
Chris

Hello cmevt,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.
It seems like the Facebook group is not allow public user to view I just tried.
Now based on your requirement, you should create a Facebook page to replace with your current Facebook group, so the public user can able to view it without login.

Can you do this for me and I can pay you for your time.

Chris

Can I change the Facebook page in Easyblog to my Facebook homepage?

Chris

Can I change the Facebook page in Easyblog to my Facebook homepage?

Now the autoposting does not work. I did not change anything except the Facebook password once you finished. the Revoke link no longer works.


Chris

Hello Cmevt,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Is it just create a simple Facebook page for you in Facebook?
What i suggestion is you have to go take a look in this creation Facebook page option, because I'm not sure that what page name you would like to set or else.
-> https://www.facebook.com/pages/create/?ref_type=logout_gear

After you changed your password, you have to click "revoke access", then go your Facebook > settings > Apps > find your Apps > Click remove (check my screenshot below), then go back Easyblog Autopost configuration page > Click Sign in with Facebook.

Sorry! You Entered An Old Password

Your password was changed at: Today at 6:35am

Hi Arlex,

I am having the same problem as the very beginning. When I click on 'Sign in with Facebook' i get this message;
Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains.

I created a new page; https://www.facebook.com/pages/CME-VT/1455712631345110?skip_nax_wizard=true&ref_type=bookmark

If this page is public, can we do setup this page for EasyBlog?

Would this be my new Page ID:455712631345110 in EasyBlog ?

What would I enter in EasyBlog for Facebook Group Id ?


Chris

Hello

Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains.

Everything is work fine now, the blog post can autopost to your Facebook page now.

STEP 1 : After you changed your password, you have go to Easyblog Autopost setting page and click "revoke access",
STEP 2 : Then go your Facebook > settings > Apps > find your Apps > Click remove (check my screenshot below remove apps.png),
STEP 3 : Then go back Easyblog Autopost configuration page > Click Sign in with Facebook.

I have tried to login to your site to test replicate and fix this issue but I have encounter roadblock. It seems like you have already block our access to the site. Here my screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/DOwLVJPZ . Can you provide us with the access back so that we can helps you fix this issue and can I have your permission to create a blogpost and autoposting it to Facebook?

Please be advise.
