Installing the Friendica/Facebook connector
1. register an API key for your site from developer.facebook.com
a. We'd be very happy if you include "Friendica" in the application name
to increase name recognition. The Friendica icons are also present
in the images directory and may be uploaded as a Facebook app icon.
Use images/friendica-16.jpg for the Icon and images/friendica-128.jpg for the Logo.
b. The url should be your site URL with a trailing slash.
You may use http://portal.friendika.com/privacy as the privacy policy
URL unless your site has different requirements, and
http://portal.friendika.com as the Terms of Service URL unless
you have different requirements. (Friendica is a software application
and does not require Terms of Service, though your installation of it might).
c. Set the following values in your .htconfig.php file
$a->config['facebook']['appid'] = 'xxxxxxxxxxx';
$a->config['facebook']['appsecret'] = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
Replace with the settings Facebook gives you.
d. Navigate to Set Web->Site URL & Domain -> Website Settings. Set Site URL
to yoursubdomain.yourdomain.com. Set Site Domain to your yourdomain.com.
e. Chose "Website" (the url should be your site URL with a trailing slash) in the
"Select how your app integrates with Facebook" section.
2. Enable the facebook plugin by including it in .htconfig.php - e.g.
$a->config['system']['addon'] = 'plugin1,plugin2,facebook';
3. Visit the Facebook Settings section of the "Settings->Plugin Settings" page.
and click 'Install Facebook Connector'.
4. This will ask you to login to Facebook and grant permission to the
plugin to do its stuff. Allow it to do so.
5. Optional step: If you want to use Facebook Real Time Updates (so new messages
and new contacts are added ~1min after they are postet / added on FB), go to
Settings -> plugins -> facebook and press the "Activate Real-Time Updates"-button.
6. You're done. To turn it off visit the Plugin Settings page again and
'Remove Facebook posting'.
1. Visit https://developers.facebook.com/apps to register an app.
a) Click "Create a new app"
b) We'd be very happy if you include "Friendica" in the application name
to increase name recognition.
c) Edit your app settings on the setup page. The Friendica icons are present
in the images directory and may be uploaded as a Facebook app icon. Use
images/friendica-16.jpg for the Icon and images/Friendica-128.jpg for the logo.
d) In the App Display name enter the name of your app (this should default to the
name you chose in part a).
e) Enter YourDomain.com in the App Domain field and hit return.
f) In "Select how your app connects with Facebook select "Website" and enter the
full URL to your Friendica install including HTTPS and a trailing slash.
2. Enable the Facebook plugin by clicking on the icon next to it's name on the plugin
page of your admin panel.
b) return to the Facebook plugin page in your admin panel, and fill in the App-ID
