Hi,

I am having some serious issues that are my fault but I need your amazing guidance to help me through it lol

I have an app with Facebook for sign in (which is approved) and for auto posting (which is being denied). They are telling me that I need to show them a video where a front end user sees the permissions needed from my site through facebook when a user uses the site but I do not know how to do this. All of the auto posting is done automatically through EB and EA and my users aren't prompted for any extra privileges. The only time they are shown anything is when they sign in for the first time with Facebook via JFBC and even here I cant get all the permissions to show.

What's funny is I set up a separate app for auto posting when I was configuring EB and I didn't bother to check off the extra permissions needed as seen in the EB documents and the auto posting worked perfectly. My worry with this approach is that it probably violates Facebook's policies.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hey Fidel,

For EasyBlog, you can actually capture a screenshot of the Facebook Sign In button under Settings > Auto posting, before and after authentication so that Facebook is clear the user will be allowed to revoke their access if they want to.

As for EasyArticles, it's the same

Hi there,

Things are moving along with FB and I am currently able to utilize the autopost feature. Once issue i am noticing is that the cover images from EA auto post are not showing up in twitter but they are in fb.

Hey Fidel,

This issue should be fix in the current latest version 1.0.2 , perhaps you can try update to latest version and submit a new blog post in EasyArticle.

Hi there,

It appears that there are still some twitter issues with the post covers since the latest updates. Are you able to investigate this for me?

Thanks

It seems like i was unable to replicate this issue, you can check my attached screenshot below, this is what i tested just now using my Twitter account.

If the issue still persists when you tested again, can you update your Twitter account and Joomla user account access so I can try replicate this issue on your site?

I am sorry that i only test EasyArticles at yesterday, but when i tested autopost to my Twitter user profile using Easyblog, it seems work fine, you can take a look of my attached screenshot below.

By the way, i realised i accidentally posted on your Facebook page and group, because i didn't temporary turn off this setting from backend, can you delete my test post from your Facebook page and group page which you configured in Easyblog autopost setting.
