Can someone please explain what are the differences between this two calls:
-
facebook.showDialog( “feed” …
-
facebook.request( “me/feed” …
Regards,
Damir.
facebook.request() will silently request the data in the background and wait on data. The facebook.showDialog(“feed”) lets you post something to your feed.
Why does facebook.showDialog(“feed”) asks you to choose recipients if it post to you own feed ?
Sorry if the questions or dumb, I am just learning the facebook stuff.
Its the way you can post on their timeline.
Thank you for the answers.
I would like to use one of those methods to “spread the word” about the game.
Which one would you suggest for that purpose ?
If I’m being honest. People hate invites showing up on their timeline. People hate it so much, that Facebook has pretty much buried it. Posting on your own timeline is probably the most visible thing, but then if you do it too much you are going to have people unsubscribe from you. I’m by no means an FB expert on what works.
