I have a question and i don't know how to explain.
If i post an audio file on soundcloud (e.g.) the site is giving me a link. Facebook recognizes the link and is showing me a play button, and i can listen directly on the page, without having to go to the soundcloud. Also, is on soundcloud i upload an image, facebook will show my image.
Can someone explain how can i do that ?
I have a server and from time to time i want to post some audio file (link from my server) to facebook. I want facebook to recognize my links, so everyone who is accessing my page to be able to listen the audio file.
Thanks a lot for your answer.
You need something called Open Graphs Tags. This is meta data which lives in header of your page.

I want to download a video on example.com, but it's "protected" by a flash player.
By inspecting the HTML code of the page, I've been able to get the direct URL to the mp4 video from the player's parameters, something like example.com/video.mp4.
When I try to go to example.com/video.mp4, I just get a blank page mentioning access denied. I figured that you need to do a specific request in order to get the video.
I analyzed traffic while reloading the page and playing the video through the player, and I've been able to get the right URL, which is along the lines of example.com/get_video.php?param1=some_hash¶m2=some_hash&filename=video.mp4
When I visit example.com/get_video.php?param1=some_hash¶m2=some_hash&filename=video.mp4, I do have the video playing alone, with no other content, in my browser's default player. But when I try to save it, the dialog box wants to save the PHP page...
How do I save the video now that I have it ?
Thanks.
I am sharing image using to https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=[some_image_link].png. When the user click the images in its facebook timeline it goes to the image path. I want to redirect the user to a particular page like http://www.example.com/page.php#/[some_image_link].
Can anyone please help?
You should be sharing a link with the OG meta tags that reflects the photo. Then you should be able to see if the request is coming from a crawler (see: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/webmasters/crawler) or a normal user and process the request accordingly.
I noticed that on facebook, when you click on an image it opens up in their photo viewer. I understand that is done with javascript, but when you look at the url it says:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3230830261587&set=a.1664092454121.85323.1591534315&type=1&theater
But, you can still see your profile/or news feed (wherever you were when you clicked on the image) behind the photo viewer. How? It appears (upon observation of the url) that you have been redirected to facebook.com/photo.php. Is that the case? And how are you redirected back to www.facebook.com/(previous).php when you close the viewer?
Facebook uses a new browser feature that can modify the browser's history. See http://badassjs.com/post/840846392/location-hash-is-dead-long-live-html5-pushstate for how Facebook changes the URL in the address bar. To display the photo, all that Facebook does is show a DIV over the document body at the same time.
i just want to copy and paste my website links on users facebook walls , when share from http://www.tvguide.dk/nyheder/2011-10-15/TV2_satser:_Nu_med_spritnye_v%C3%A6rter_!/ share buttons it works and picks a correct og:image thumbnail ,
however when i copy paste the link on the wall the facebook picks the logo image. insted of og:image value
can you guys help me please
You won't be able to change that, unless you always upload a picture when you post on someones wall! The og:image is only used for the open graph which is used from like and share buttons, comments etc, but not in facebook itself.
Read up on internationalization: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/internationalization/
Your website is in Danish but you have used set locale as en_US. Also the title, type and URL properties are not being interpreted correctly by Facebook. http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tvguide.dk%2Fnyheder%2F2011-10-15%2FTV2_satser%3A_Nu_med_spritnye_v%25C3%25A6rter_%21%2F
Make changes and check the progress at URL Debugger(Linter) given above. If everything fails try including the FBJS SDK and use fb:share-button. I had a similar problem once with WordPress which got solved using the JS SDK
Need help/idea on this.
I have to create a mp4 audio file and then have to upload it on facebook, twitter and tumblr.
I know there is no specific API for this there. But is there any other way out?
I also know i can upload files on separate server and then can provide the link. But i want it to play there only as video's in facebook.
Any ideas on this will be appreciated.
you can utilize open graph, i.e. create a web page with og:audio related meta tags, see the following doc (scroll towards the bottom):
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
then anytime a user/page/app likes a page, it is uploaded to their facebook
hope this helps
you can also do it from opengraph see if this link is suitable for you https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
you can also do it by open graph protocol of facebook
