Finding MVC With Facebook Connect Template Project?
Dec 19, 2010
I'm looking for template project that uses Facebook Connect instead of ASP.NET Membership service with ASP.NET MVC 1.0/2.0/3.0. It should support connect (login) and logof and storing user data to the database. Is there something like that?
And second question: Would YOU like to participate in building such tamplate? (if similar project doesn't exist)
I want to create a webservice that allows user to connect to Facebook. In my webservice, there is a method named "connect" which requires 2 parameters: the username and password (of the Facebook account).
I have to use this username and password to connect to Facebook from the webservice. After that, I want to allow the user to post on their walls...Is is it possible to connect to Facebook using a webservice?
I tried a lot, and I can login to Facebook account, but I can't get the sessionkey and userid.
How can I integrate Facebook in an ASP.NET webservice?
However I have a problem at the 'Authentication and Initiating a Session' stage.
When I go through the steps, I click on 'Connect' in my browser, which opens a popup, where I login to Facebook and 'Allow' the application to access my account. I'm then redirected to the filename I specify in thw 2nd parameter of the javascript function 'FB.init'.
However, this page then displays:
"Please sign-in with Facebook."
Why is this happening? I'm developing this on localhost,
I'm using Facebook connect on my site. If a new user connects through FB i create an account for them and all is fine. What i would also like to do is check to see if they already have a registered account.
So if someone connects that has not logged in but has an account i would like to be able to locate the account in my application a link it. I hoping this could be done via the email address?
Im testing something on a MojoPortal where i need to seperately add a Facebook connect button and make the user get registered with the website's registration! How do i do that?
I'm using the TokenExchange_Url URL to receive the unique user OAuth token to make calls with.
This is working fine, because a) i receive the token back, and b) i can issue HTTP Get Requests to the Graph API (i.e UserDetails_Url) and it works fine.
But, i cannot Post to the User's wall using the Feed_Url.I'm pretty sure the issue is i haven't got the appropriate user permissions to post to a wall (i.e facebook-side setting).
Now, i realise i can use the fbPublish API method client-side to do this, but i want to do it server-side with the Graph API.
I wont bother showing my code which attempts the call to the Graph API to post to the user's wall, as its pretty straightforward (HttpWebRequest, set method to "POST', set content type/length, write bytes to Stream, etc).
I think the problem is i need the user to grant my aplpication "publish_stream" extended permissions.
The Facebook Graph API doco says to do this in your authorization request:
Am i using the wrong Token Exchange URL? Why is there two different URL's to seemingly get the same piece of information?
Yes - i have read the Facebook API doco (numerous times), and yes i have read other similar SO questions, but they all result in using the client-side API to publish to wall, i want to do it server side.
For the actual "Facebook Connect" button, i'm using the standard FBML:
When i click this (and not logged into Facebook), it pops up a window which the user can login. But it doesnt have the "Request Extended Permissions" dialog - shouldnt it? Or is that another popup i need to manually trigger?
So to sum up, here are my questions:
How do i grant extended permissions to publish to the user's wall?What is the correct URL for obtaining an OAuth token?Is there a definitive source for showing how to post to a user's wall using server-side Graph API calls?
I noticed that whenever my clients connect their accounts to my application, the Sys.UI returns null and the MaskEditTextBox is not longer showing the mask ... in other words is not working.
i want to develope desgin like facebook .where i have posts and comments will pick from the database that i inserted earlier.what will be the best possible way to do in the same template.
i have created a website and a project[containing form1]...in my website a page is der which shud call form1...but i dont know how to do it..is it possible.
Whenever i run the project this problem occur Can any one give me solution. should i have to delete webdev.webserver.exe and install another is this the right solution for my problem.
I created an MVC 3.0 project that I want to use as a template for all other applications I build. The project I am exporting is named "Template". After exporting the template and starting a new project (MyFirstApp) using that template, all of the namespaces that were originally named "Template" are changed to "MyFirstApp". This is expected behavior and this is how I would prefer it to work. However, the namespaces in the razor views do not change. they remain as "Template" ex: @model Template.Models.LogOnModel.
I'm guessing this is a bug. Is there any way around it? This was not an issue in MVC 2.
I there a way to get the user id that they signed on to the computer with from web site project, without changing IIS so they will have to login? This will be interanet and remote internate users.
In my Application I am using one Modal popup extender. I have one Grid View with Item Template containing Link button. I want to set Target Control Id of Popup extender to link Button of the Item Template. As it is inside the Item Template I can not access it directly in the page.
So Is there any alternative to achieve the same functionality.
Today in one of the computer i installed visual studio 2010 professional edition, and successfully installed. But in my new project template "Asp.net MVC 2 website" is missing. Also I'm not able to open an already created MVC 2 project also. I'm also having MVC 2 installed with VS 2008 Sp1 in the same machine and is working fine. I uninstalled and installed again, the same is happening.
