[Plugin: WPBook] No Access Token error

  • My Fan Page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cuberis/101890296522841?sk=wall
    My App URL: https://apps.facebook.com/cuberisblog

    I have gone through the steps to create the app for my blog and have successfully gotten the tab to appear on my Fan Page. But I have had nothing but problems when trying to get a post to appear on the wall. When I check permissions, I get the following:

    Your userid is 100001055562421

    You will need to enter that number into the WPBook settings page on your WordPress install.

    This user_id has granted these permissions:

    offline_access – yes
    read_stream – yes
    publish_stream – yes
    manage_pages – yes
    This user has NOT set an access_token for the application to use.

    You’ve indicated you wish to publish to this page: 101890296522841

    WPBook has stored an access_token for use as Cuberis as well.

    My debug file is also giving the “No access token” error.

    I have removed the app from my user account and re-authorized it, and I still have not been able to get the access_token set. What am I missing?

    Have you set BOTH your Profile ID AND page ID? You need to set a profile ID even if you only wish to publish to a page. If you only want to publish to a page click “publish to YOUR Facebook Wall” enter your profile ID click Save then uncheck the “Publish to YOUR Wall” box (this will be fixed in a future release) Then once you have entred a profile ID re-grant permission.

    If you have a Personal Profile ID set then I’m not sure what the problem is :/

    In general what this means is that the FB profile ID you have entered into the WPBook settings (Wall/Stream options area, where it says YOUR FB Profile ID) does not match the one you are logged in to FB as.

    Have you entered 100001055562421 as your FB Profile ID in the wall/stram settings?

    Thank you for the instructions! That worked great. The only problem is that a seemingly random author image (not the author of the post) is inserted into the wall post. I love having the blog tab on the fan page so I will keep using this app, but I may need to find a different solution for the wall posts.

    Thanks again!

    @isabisa Can you point to where you are seeing a “seemingly random author image”?

    @johneckman, sorry I deleted the post since it showed up wrong. I’ve reposted it and you can see it here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cuberis/101890296522841?sk=wall
    and here:

    Since our site is in production, I’d like to remove it by the end of the day. Let me know if you need anything from me if you’re interested in troubleshooting. Thanks!

    Thanks, you can take it down now if you want.

    The image that shows has this url:

    https://platform.ak.fbcdn.net/www/app_full_proxy.php?app=150194908376023&v=1&size=z&cksum=c86390f5d60c836e9c6c2b5bbd87a9a9&src=http%3A%2F%2Fcuberis.com%2Fwp-content%2Fplugins%2Fuser-avatar%2Fuser-avatar-pic.php%3Fid%3D6%26w%3D45%26radom%3D1300300327

    Which, when you take the Facebook proxy out, means this:
    https://cuberis.com/wp-content/plugins/user-avatar/user-avatar-pic.php?id=6&w=45&radom=1300300327

    Which suggests to me that something is going on with the user-avatar plugin.

    What isn’t clear is where Facebook is getting this image from, and why it is trying to associate that image with the post. I believe when Facebook doesn’t have an attached image (which happens when you don’t use a “featured image” in WordPress), Facebook fetches the full url and looks for an image to use, taking one seemingly at random.

    I don’t know if that’s something we can control – unless you just always pass some kind of featured image along with your posts, like the icon of the company?

    That makes complete sense. Thanks for taking a look at it and I’ll keep that in mind for the future!
