Question

What ways to invite user friends on facebook connected website you know?

During last days I've found following methods:

  • Just post message on user wall. But it's not targeted message.

  • Send facebook messages to friends using message dialog.

But it can lead app to ban with following reason "Facebook messages is a channel for user-to-user communication, and not for applications to send messages to their users, or encourage users to spam their friends"

But it can lead app to ban, again, cause of facebook policy. - "I.11 Apps on Facebook may not integrate, link to, promote, distribute, or redirect to any app on any other competing social platform"

  • Also there are a couple of old same questions(like this and this), that suggests to use fbxml - but it is deprecated by facebook.

So, are there any ways to invite friends from facebook to website directly?

Was it helpful?

Solution

There are no way to do it programmatically in current facebook API version. Only canvas apps can invite friends. Also you can use messaging on your own risk.

OTHER TIPS

If they are you r friends you can add web url to each of their walls. Or via private message.
