    Hello,

    I’d like to understand what exactly does the Facebook tab do in “Social Meta Settings” do?
    I have created a Facebook App ID, but that, as far as I can tell, is for mobile apps only and has nothing to do with websites.
    If somebody knows more about this, I’d appreciate your help.
    Thanks.

    Hello!

    The Facebook Apps may be used for a host of things–the scope in which this is as a tag is very limited, and only used for “oh, it’s you”-purposes. Although Facebook’s Open Graph debugger states it’s required, it’s not.

    I know, this isn’t very useful, but the tag in and of itself isn’t; we’ve added it for completion and to halt support inquiries–after all, Facebook deems it as “required,” and emits an error on omission.

    I think Facebook had, or still have, bigger plans for this; but they’ve never seen the light of day.

    Thank you very much for your help! Much appreciated.

    I am not 100% sure, but didn’t you ask the same question on Reddit too? If you are indeed a different person, I provided a bit more information there.

    Cheers and have a nice weekend!

    Yeah, it was me. ?? I actually saw your reply on my mobile app and as a desktop notification, but the full length reply is missing on Reddit – at least I don’t see it. Thanks anyway! Btw, I just left a review. ??

    Yeah, I didn’t get the reply either. I thought to myself, gee that guy could`ve at least give me an upvote. ?? But the review is heaps better, only 0.04% users write reviews and since we do not annoy people instead of their own website dashboard, asking here is the only way. I hope you understand.

    Sure, I’m in the mobile app publishing business and know how important positive reviews are. ?? Thanks again, you really deserve 5+ stars.
