How to Publish an item to a users feed

Oct 4, 2009

Have you seen these boxes on Facebook where you are asked to publish an item to you profile? For example if you have bought an item on a game such as http://apps.facebook.com/stargateextreme a pop up box appears and asks if you would like to publish the item to your profile. See pic below

And then the outcome is a nice big advert for your application which appears not only on your wall but all of your friends walls as the below example.

Now we have completed a tutorial and provided all the code you require to set up your own feed. We have attempted to explain this without all the geeky techno stuff that you see in the dev forums and wiki.

The examples provided is exactly what we use in our games. The viral affects of using these feeds on you applications are amazing. If your game or app has gone static then inserting this little beauty will kick start your app again with thousands of free adverts!!!!!

    Hi tim

    I have responded by msn with just remove

    try {
    if (!$facebook->api_client->users_isAppAdded()) {
    $facebook->redirect($facebook->get_add_url());
    }
    }
    catch (Exception $excatch) {
    $facebook->set_user(null, null);
    $facebook->redirect($appcallbackurl);
    }

    from the appinclude and now the app works fine mate.

    I hope this was to your satisfaction mate.
