Hiya Joe!
Many thanks for this! Hopefully some members will find this useful. One question that I know will be asked: what happens after Monday 3rd? Will folks be able to approach you if they have any issues, and will they have access to future updates?
I'm only putting it on here to download til Monday 3rd, though if the old rep points go well, I'll be so happy I might forget for a bit :o)
Any problems, just get in touch with me here and I'll help out. In regards to updates, I hadn't thought about that, but I'll put them on here for a bit if there are any, then people can grab 'em.
Looks like you extended the offer, I managed to grab my copy but the time limit has just expired. I don't know if I would use this myself but I will try to give it a shot!
Cheers.
Wow, a big thank you for that NetPotion. You've put me onto the 1000 point mark, which is my first milestone, and has put my total number of points from other members onto 105, so just 295 points to go for lifetime membership :o)

Hopefully you can get the rest of the gifted points soon. =)
This script will come in very handy, so thank you very much! I just hope Facebook quits changing things so that it doesn't break this. They can't seem to leave well enough alone. It's always something.

Hi Joe
Works really well. The video is out of date though & the written instructions don't explain the parts about adding the keys and domain names.
I kinda put them all together and got it working. Seems to work awesome =)
I'll check this out and get back to you on it. Having recently moved at the end of September, and still not have web access other than a dongle (my first time offline the majority of the time in 19 years), I'm having trouble getting things done, but will check this out later today.
On your point of Facebook changing things - again - I find it amazing that almost every website gets things to a point where it works well, then 'improves' things.
If you are having problems, I'll see if I can figure it out with you on here, if not we can move over to email. I would prefer on here though, as others with the same problem may find a solution that way :o)
Please note, it isn't a very exciting page as there is no info there.
The instructions do need to be updated however. Also, I saw a warning on Facebook that SSL would be required by Oct. 1. It seems to be working anyway, but I digress.
You can set up unlimited tabs using this, so maybe you could have a seperate page that is 512 pixels, as that is the max you can have to avoid sidebars.
I saw that message about October 1st, but it seems to be working without any problems - so far...
I'v ebookmarked the app page, another excuse not to get my book written
I have a possible solution for your secure server if you don't want to risk Facebook suddenly stopping all apps that don't have it. The good news is that it's free.
Just go along to http://www.social-server.com and sign up. I've just given it a go and it is quick and painless. It is a lot like bit.ly, just put in your tab URL and get a secure server URL.
I'm going to be removing this one Tuesday night (GMT/1st November) and selling it on my site, so get it while you can, and please donate points if you think it is worth it :o)
I can't seem to find this on your site? I would LOVE to have a go at this...didn't join the community until after you had pulled it down :( Can you tell me where exactly to find it?
This offer ends at 11.59pm (GMT) January 13th, so only 25 hours - and don't forget that reputation points make me happy as I need to earn my lifetime membership :0)
While you're there, check out the site ;o) Though nothing else will be available on there until 14th January, the deals are pretty good.
Wow, Joe!! I was waaaay too slow! I think when you opened this back up was during the time when I was absolutely at my wits' end with BlueHost and my multisite install problems. I can only offer up 30 points (since that's all I have, hehe) but I'd be more than happy to do so.
I sent you some "Thank You" points yesterday - you rock! Have not had a chance to get in there and get it going yet, but once I do (and I should have more "karma" by then) I'll report back and send more points :)
BTW, how far off are you on the needed 400 pts to get your free lifetime membership. Obviously this is a loooong ways off for me, but I have a subscription until the end of 2012, so I will do what I can to help you get there!

I grabbed it up and will have a look. Thank you :)
Just note to other folks here - this is not strictly a WordPress plugin but a script that you could use on any website.
Thanks!

Member — 7th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
I'm in the middle of moving with limited web access, so I figured it was best just to leave it on here :o)
Member — 15th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
Thanks! Gave you some rep points. Could be very useful. Can you show a few links of working examples? (will look through documentation later).
Member — 17th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
Thanks for the points everybody.
I've now seen that Facebook have changed their system a little, so I'll be rewriting the help file.
Member — 19th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
I've now updated the user guide to follow the new Facebook app setup.
The original link above will download the new version.
Eagle-Eyed Member — 19th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
@Joe - I just sent you 76 rep points so that you are up to 1,000 now.
I don't like to screw around ; )
Congratulations & thanks for the script my friend =)

I've just set up things again on my Facebook page,. just in case they had changed things to newly created pages, but it seems to be working ok.
You can see my page here:

Hi Joe, I got it working to - though I prefer to link to the app page to get rid of the scrollbars since I'm embedding a full, non WP site.
See App Page Here
See Regular Facebook Page Here
The instructions do need to be updated however. Also, I saw a warning on Facebook that SSL would be required by Oct. 1. It seems to be working anyway, but I digress.

Re: Social Server - That looks awesome Joe - thank you!
Re: Tabs - I'll have to go back and see if I can figure that out. Thanks
Eagle-Eyed Member — 24th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
@Joe - Did you send me a friend request on FB? I think I may have denied it because I didn't know who you were and wasn't putting 2 + 2 together.
If you did, just like my page and I will send you one. I can't remember your username there and it's hidden now. Sorry about that.
BTW - That SocialServer thing is a God send. Thank you for the link!
Member — 24th October 2011 (7 months ago) #
Yeah that was me, I've got mainly writers on my Facebook, so now trying to put together some WP peeps.
I thought I'd already 'liked' your page, but just did it now. I'm Joe Jenkins on there.

We are due to go live on the 14th January, but until then I'm happy to open this up again.
Please note that the user guide requires a few updates, due to Facebook changing the way things work - again. These will be added over the next week.
Go along to my site and use the following coupon code:
wpmudev
This will then allow you to get the Website Pages software free.
This offer is open to everybody, but please don't pass this around, as it is meant for those on wpmudev.

If you would like feel free to send me a message at wendy@isisathletics.com.
This would be the bomb! You have no idea how much time it would save me as actually having to physically go on Facebook is an absolute time drain :O
Cheers!

I've sent you an email with a 1 time use coupon
It's not all about the points, but they help :0)

Thanks for that, it all helps, but don't forget to get your points going too :0)
I just took a look and have 153 points from 7 separate members, so a way to go on the number of points and 3 other members to help out at some point.

My bad, I missed that, how come can I miss such an interesting thing :(
Anyways, its never too late, I am brushing up my skills to be able to write my own smashing plugins one day :)

I'm sure if you throw across some points, I can make it available to you. I hate to see anybody lose out if they are a member here :)
WPMUDEV-ian — 25th April 2012 (4 weeks ago) #
@Joe, would love to do that real soon. Would drop a quick note once I have a quick bunch to send your way.
Till then, will see you around in forums.
PS. I have bookmarked this page :)
Cheers
