Thanks a lot

  • What about facebook code?

    What I mean is, go to your facebook page that has you likes and address and such on it, If in google tell it to show you the source of the webpage, there hopefully should be some where in that mess of code that shows how facebook connects to your friend that we could copy and put into a Elgg plugin, right?

     

  • @ Michele, I like how you finished your comment  "shouldn't it?" In my own opinion, Every social network like Facebook and others out there ought to help genuine software developers connect to their data centers freely.  OUGHTn’T they?  I can't even pronounce it!


    Note: "ought"  or “aught”  It's pronounced "awtunt" – and  is used less frequently nowadays. In addition, It has been  replaced by "should."  Now here is this word again  “OUGHTn’T”.  Any way, it has been long since I used this word and after thanksgiving holiday, my long term memory is still kicking or working :)

  • @Tom - here i am reading 'the day after roswell' that gives many details about how the secretive government / military / corporates have (dys)functioned - and how they use information and the values / secrecy they use/rely on (specifically with regards to technology).
    if facebook were a social network with emphasis on 'social' then yes, free sharing (with choosable privacy) would be the focus.. but that is not what facebook is.

    here's what richard stallman (co-creator of the gnu part of gnu/linux) has to say on the topic: http://stallman.org/facebook.html

  • So the code can't be written to simply read your "friends" list and FB message them one at a time via a script of some sort (with invite link attached)? It does seem like a powerful tool to develop.

  • No unfortunately it can't - they call it 'spam protection' which is potentially a valid reason, but it also prevents legitimate use cases such as this.  If the oxwall plugin hooks into FB notifications that's potentially viable, though not nearly as useful as a real post/message/email

  • i want this too i used the plugin on oxwall and was really good wish elgg had this plugin, does it exist? i dropped oxwall elgg is better but do love that plugin

  • can someone reverse engineer oxwall plugin for inviter? also can we reverse engineer wordpress plugins? if this is possible please inbox me asap

  • i think you can add this plugin to elgg very easly by adding the html java code to lets say the header editor plugin i think this is defo possible i will try and report the results back here : )

  • if you got ssl you can do this

     

     

    invite facebook friend from your website,use this small lines of code and send invitation to all facebook friends to visit your website.i also used this script its working nicely. your domain must be ssl certified because facebook not allowing unsecured domains.

    <script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
    
    <script>
    FB.init({
    appId:'APP_ID',
    cookie:true,
    status:true,
    xfbml:true
    });
    
    function FacebookInviteFriends()
    {
    FB.ui({
    method: 'apprequests',
    message: 'Your Message diaolog'
    });
    }
    </script>
    
    
    //HTML Code
    <div id="fb-root"></div>
    <a href='#' onclick="FacebookInviteFriends();"> 
    Facebook Invite Friends Link
    </a>

    add this below code to your website main page..

    <script type='text/javascript'>
    if (top.location!= self.location)
    {
    top.location = self.location
    }
    </script>
