Implemented [Feature Request] FB AppId

Can you add in backend the FB AppID

Example
when click on FB button "Share via NAME OF APP"

Hi,

currently the script utilizes the facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php to share.
This facebook page only accepts an url (the url you want to share.

There is no parameter for the appid

I found a different facebook share dialogue: facebook.com/dialog/share.php

This requires the appid otherwise you will get an error.

So changing this means multiple configurations for users with / without an appid.

Can you explain what the benefit / difference is in using the appid?

Hi

the appID is useful for messenger in desktop version

ad i.e

for deskltop
www.facebook.com/dialog/send?app_id={YOU...i={YOUR_REDIRECT_URI}

for mobile
fb-messenger://share?link={SHARE_URL}

Okay,

so just to make sure I understand.
Currently we have the Facebook Messenger implemented.
It links to: fb-messenger://share?link=[the link to share]

This does not work when enabled on desktop because the fb-messenger:// is not recognised > "The address wasn’t understood"

So what you propose is the following:

for mobile devices (enable on device: tables and mobile) use as it is implemented currenlty.
for desktop (enable on device: desktop) use the www.facebook.com/dialog/send?app_id=1518...ommunityhub.nl/forum

step 1
github.com/tabalinas/jssocials/pull/166

Okay,

so pending the change in the jssocials script I have done some development to see if this works.

Below you will see the button for Facebook messenger generated with the test version.

When you open this message on your phone or tablet it should point to the Messager app, when on desktop it should open with the web app (including app id).

can you test

{jssocials title="Cool Joomla extension" buttonorder="M,T"}

hi

i've tested from mobile and desktop.

Now on the desktop messenger button work
But on mobile seems remain the same share link that are on the desktop.

I've tested with real mobile device and chrome dev tools

retry now please (ctrl-f5 to get fresh pages...)

Now seems work correctly

Top!

As soon as the PR ( github.com/tabalinas/jssocials/pull/166) gets accepted I will make a new version of my plugin.
