Add to Facebook option in Get Widget button

Hi Dave,

The URL for the widget is "currency-converter-igoogle".

I would also like to point out that the Facebook app was developed about a year ago and has been working OK; however, now when you click on its Facebook URL "http://apps.facebook.com/currency-converter/", Facebook doesn't give the option to add the app, instead it tries to redirect the user to the edit your apps screen (editapps.php)

Thanks

Hi Tolga,

All of the old app accelerator apps were broken by Facebook's platform changes some time ago. We've dropped support for these apps and only support the new implementation, which only supports Blidget Pro's.

Thank you. So we need to go pro and create a new Facebook app from our existing widget through our pro account? If so, do you know if there is a way to simply "replace" the existing Facebook app with the new one that we would create?

Tolga,

Assuming you're using a Blidget, then yes, you will need to delete your FB app and create a new one. A good way to make this happen is to go through the new Wizard and use the API and Secret from your existing app. This will reconfigure this app, although users will need to re-authorize and re-add to the profile.

This SHOULD work, but the switch over isn't directly supported, so you should be willing to see issues. It's certainly a good attempt either way and I'd love to know your results.

Hmm, we were not using a blidget (it was an imported igoogle gadget) so looks like we'll need to think of someother way. thanks anyways.
