I am trying to load up http://developers.facebook.com/apps page but i always get redirected to my 'adverts & pages' page. I cant add the Developer app either as i get redirected also to the same page. Im simply trying to register my website as an app. I need to set a fb:app_id value for our Like buttons
I have a recorded mobile number & credit card so our page should be verified
Any thoughts ?.
You are currently logged in as a page account and not a real user account. Only user accounts can create facebook apps.

Hi friends,
The company I work for has a website with an Admin Dashboard. Pages that users can use according to their authorization are listed in the menu. Beautiful so far. However, there is a problem. The person can reach the pages that he cannot see in the menu at the moment, without authorization, from the address bar, by entering the link of the page. How can I prevent access to unauthorized pages from the Address Bar by redirecting them from one place? I don't want to check each page individually. This doesn't make sense. For example, a component with the message "You are not authorized to view this page" may be displayed or automatically redirected to the home page.
I'm waiting for your help. Thanks.
You will need to use a global router navigation guard/hook called beforeEach - as explained in multiple tutorials:

I'm hoping that a Bigcommerce rep can answer this. I had some trouble accessing my Bigcommerce store to get my support PIN so I'm posting here.
I am developing a Bigcommerce app and am wondering if the Bigcommerce user must automatically be logged into my app when they open it in the iframe, or can the app display a login page inside the iframe when it opens?
I've seen some apps first display a signup page for the user to fill out, and I was planning to also first display a signup page for the user to create an account inside the app, then ask them to log into the app on the next session. Is this allowed, or do I need to implement OAuth in a way that allows the Bigcommerce user to log into my app based on their store during the app load?
Thanks
This is the first Facebook App i've created since the Timeline changes. Everything appears to be working the same, except for adding the app to my page's Timeline "Favorites"(?) (the boxes at the top near the About section). A large majority of the traffic to this app will come from visitors seeing the app tab on our page.
I'm attempting to add it using the following URL:
http://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=MYAPPID&redirect_uri=MYAPPURL
Then I select the page, and click "Add Page Tab".
This works fine - I can then swap it's position, view the app, edit settings, etc.
I set up the tab how I want it, and then log out and visit my Facebook Page directly to view the app tab as a visitor would. The app is no longer there. Log back in, everything is fine, log back out, it's gone. It appears that if you do not already Like the page, you cannot see the app. If you do like the page, you can see it. I'd like the app to be viewable by people who do not like the page as well, as the app has a fan gate of it's own.
I've disabled Sandbox mode as well so i'm not sure what's left to do.
Any help is appreciated.
You mentioned in the comments that the app is restricted to US users:
Because your app is restricted, it won't be displayed to logged-out browsers - this is expected because unless the user is logged-in, their location and age can't be determined in order to check the restrictions you've set
If you must have the app visible to logged-out users, remove the API-level restriction and use the details passed in the signed_request to show or hide the app's content
{edit} I missed the edit to your question {/edit} - it may also be that your existing signed_request processing code is failing for logged out users
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 !

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
