I have a webpage that I am using for redirecting users on Page Load it first updates the record in my table Ex. visited for users and after that, I redirect the user to another page.
Everything is working great but somehow I noticed that lots of users are visiting the web page but I can't track them on Google Analytics & after doing research I found that this is happening because of SMS link preview features.
Due to that, the preview appears on mobile but the user doesn't click on SMS and the table got updated as visited for that user.
Can anyone please help me to prevent the table update from SMS preview? Thanks in advance.
I have tried to add link in between the SMS.
I have tried removing https:// http:// fromthe begining of the URL

I am currently running several ads on facebook and I have just started using the facebook-click-id to replace facebook-pixels for the tracking. For some reason I have found that there are a lot of clicks coming in through the ads without the fbclid-parameter attached to the url as a get-parameter.
Through a google search I have found out that the only reasons the fbclid-parameter would not be attached to the url would be that the user clicking on the ad is not logged in to facebook or that the user is using his/her browser with the incognito-mode activated.
It seems odd to me that so many clicks could happen under those circumstances. Which is why I am wondering if there are other reasons why the facebook-click-id (fbclid-parameter) would not be attached to the url.
Are there any other reasons why the fbclid-parameter would not be attached to the outgoing url of a facebook ad? Thanks!
after doing some tests trying to solve the same problem, what I noticed is that fbclid parameter did not appear in outbound links when using the browser built into the mobile Facebook app.
So, I think that this is a Facebook limitation.
Hope it helps,
I tried to share a post to our LinkedIn company page using REST API and the post was shared successfully. But the problem is the when I click the post it is going back to the LinkedIn company page.
Here is the link to the company page:
https://www.linkedin.com/company/10210720
Try clicking any post in the company page and I just found out that it is working on Firefox mobile, previously I was testing it on Google Chrome desktop.
The problem was caused by space in the query string values of submitted-url option,
I replaced spaces with _ and it works fine now :)
I am having Google Play link(Android) and iTunes App Link(iTunes). I want to create a Facebook tab for my business page and on click of Facebook tab, my Google Play link can be opened.
I have registered myself on developers.facebook.com/apps and created a new App. Now Under Basic Info I get confused on what to enter the value for App Domains so I have entered play.google.com because my Google Play link starts with this.
Now under Page Tab, I have entered all the required information but entered probably the wrong value for Page Tab Edit URL . So I finally save my application but it is not working.
So now I have deleted my Page Tab section and I then switched over to App on Facebook section where under Canvas URL I have placed my Google Play URL with all the required details and then submitted for review.
Before I submit for the review finally it asked me that there should be no external URL used But I have used my Google Play URL in the Canvas URL section which is external.
I am completely confused now with this Facebook. I have also Googled a lot but with no result for me.
Please Guide me on integrating Android link(play.google.com) as Facebook Business Page tab.
Thanks !

I have a problem with my fanpage. A gallery script is running a my webspace and i put it in the app also in th iframe of the Fanpage. The gallery script has get an Share button to post the photos on facebook. This part of it is running fine but when i clicked the link that was posted in Facebook i had been reffered to my page on my webspace and not to the iframe with the webpage and the photo. Is it possible to edit the link to go to this page in facebook iframe?
This is not a problem in general. You can try to redirect your website into the Facebook tab application my checking the HTTP_REFERRER and the url. You might have a look at this example
There is an URL you can try to call and see if you get redirected to the right application. Additionally, you can add app_data-parameters to the URL to identify the real target into your app.
All that can be done by the following code:
// set the target facebook page name and id to perform a forceRedirectToTab()
$tmpFbHelper
->setPageName($iniHandler->getIniSetting('facebook.'.fbHelper::getAppNamespace().'.page.name'))
->setPageId($iniHandler->getIniSetting('facebook.'.fbHelper::getAppNamespace().'.page.id'))
->setSecret($iniHandler->getIniSetting('facebook.'.fbHelper::getAppNamespace().'.secret'));
// perform a redirect to the facebook tab application if someone opens the url out of facebook
// the facebook-linter is not affected by this :)
$tmpFbHelper->forceRedirectToTab();
// perform a deeplink if for example a special url is called or you identify some app-data
$tmpFbHelper->performDeeplink();
You will have to look at your published links into the stream so that the PHP-code finds out that you will redirect and deeplink!
I hope this ideas might help you :)
Built a custom app that will allow users to add jobs to a system. Once they've done that, it should post to their profile pages as well as their news feed. All of this is working perfect, except for one bit. If somebody else clicks on that link, let's say a friend of the person who has posted the link (from the system when adding a job) they're asked to install the app.
What should happen is a new tab should open with that position showing. If you use facebook like / recommend, this works, but requires the user to do it manually. When using the custom facebook app to do it via /user_id/feed, POST it shows the link and everything working fine, till one of their friends clicks on the link and is then requested to install the app.
How can I make so that the link being posted on the fan page, profile page of the user who has given permission to the app to do so, to just open in a new tab and go directly to the link that was posted instead of routing through the app?
Just to add on to this, the url that get's created via the app looks like this : http://www.facebook.com/connect/uiserver.php?app_id=142332219213134&method=permissions.request&redirect_uri=[the actual url being passed]&response_type=code&display=async&auth_referral=1
This makes that you HAVE to install the app to view the links... which should not happen, you should just be taken straight to the link that was shared via the app.
It looks like you probably have Authenticated Referrals enabled. I haven't worked with this feature but it sounds like it's related to your problem based on that URL.
