I have a Facebook fan page (created late 2011) for one of my apps. I'm in the process of adding Facebook SDK support to the app to allow users to post photos to their news feeds.
What I want to do is connect the FACEBOOK APP with the existing FACEBOOK PAGE.
I'd assume you could go into the Facebook Page settings and LINK THE APPID TO THE PAGE. But I can't seem to find anything. I had a look in the app settings too, and that has Canvas pages, Page Tabs, but nothing quite looks right.
All I want to actually do is let my users post photos to their newsfeeds from my app. And those photos then link to the Enscripted fan page. So if I'm missing something, let me know.
To add an app to a Facebook Page, you need to add a Page Tab to your page. This document will help you with that: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/appsonfacebook/pagetabs/

I am trying to put a Google+ badge on my recently created websites at sites.google.com. When I copy the code and paste it into the HTML box actually nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?
You can use to insert a Google+ Badge into your Google Sites pages using a custom gadget:
Get your Google+ profile ID, which you can get from the URL of your profile. The ID would be 123456789012345678901 for this URL: https://plus.google.com/123456789012345678901/ or would be +LarryPage for this URL: https://plus.google.com/+LarryPage/
Edit the page that you want to add the badge
Choose Insert-> ...More gadgets...
Search for G+ Badge.
Paste your profile ID into the G+ ID field.
Configure additional options as necessary for your page. You might need to adjust dimensions of the gadget container to get the badge to work well in your site.
Gadgets have limitations, this might not work perfectly but its probably the best way to get a badge onto your page.
There is a configuration tool for the Google+ Badge that you can find at https://developers.google.com/+/web/badge/.
The key points are that you need to add the HTML as a widget and include the JavaScript tag--which is the same JavaScript that loads any of our Google+ attributes.
I also made a 3 minute video explaining these steps last year, which you can view at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLG4IIIPgnc.
I have an (iframe) app hosted on a tag on a Facebook Page. The app pulls (based on various conditions) photos from the albums of the page and displays them to the user. Is it possible to create "ajaxify" links on the photos so that when the user clicks on the photo, the photo will open in the new Facebook Photo Viewer (lightbox overlay) without navigating to the actually photo's URL?
Facebook's lightbox isn't part of the facebook api. You will have to implement your own lightbox, or download one from somewhere, to get this effect.
I started this website last year, along with a facebook page.
http://www.facebook.com/textbookcentral
I just implemented some more facebook features into my website, which used an app's ID to authenticate with facebook servers.
http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=214000968642435
Is there a way I can merge both? When users click on the App link on the wall posts my App made, they get taken to the App page, which is empty.
Mainly, I want to keep the http://www.facebook.com/textbookcentral URL, and when people click on the App page, it would have the http://www.facebook.com/textbookcentral URL. It would be a bonus if I could import all the original facebook pages' content, too.
Or, make the App link on wall posts on users page to link to the original page instead.
Please be aware that as of Feb 1st Application Profile Pages are GONE !
Removing App Profile Pages
As for your questions, the link above contains the information about the migration process
So I've got my iPhone app running and what I want to achieve is when you navigate to a certain page, there is a button which, when clicked, will direct you to a certain page on Facebook. I have looked at the Facebook development pages (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/mobile/) for adding Facebook and it is currently opening up Facebook when clicked and logs in successfully, although not straight away like it should.
So my problems are as follows:
1) When the button is pressed, it should bring up a page asking for permission for my application to automatically log in but it doesn't,
2) When logged in, I want the app to take the user straight to a specific page on Facebook so they can look at it and like it but i have no idea how to do this,
3) I would also need a way of exiting the Facebook view, back to the previous view the user was on inside my application.
Thanks,
Matthew
