now i want to get fields
*email
*birth day
and some other permission requesting fields .
so i am doing
$this->co_config_items = $this->ci->config->item('connections_config');
$fbconfig = array(
'appId' => $this->co_config_items['fb_appid'],
'secret' => $this->co_config_items['fb_secret'],
'cookie' => true,
'domain' => $this->ci->config->item('domain')
);
$this->ci->load->library('3rd/connectors/facebook', $fbconfig);
$facebook = new Facebook($fbconfig);
Facebook::$CURL_OPTS[CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER] = false;
Facebook::$CURL_OPTS[CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST] = 2;
$session = $facebook->getSession();
$url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(
'canvas' => 1,
'fbconnect' => 0,
'scope' => 'read_stream,friends_likes,user_birthday'
));
if(!$session){
$url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(
'canvas' => 1,
'fbconnect' => 0,
'scope' => 'read_stream,friends_likes,user_birthday'
));
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>window.location = '$url';</script>";
}
else{
//echo "<script type='text/javascript'>window.opener.location.href='" . base_url() . "home/auth/get_user_facebook_details_list" . "'; self.close();
//</script>";
try {
$me = $facebook->api('/me');
$this->ci->session->set_flashdata ( 'user_details',$me);
$url=base_url()."home/auth/user_contact_information";
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>window.opener.location.href = '$url';self.close();</script>";
} catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
$this->ci->message->set_error(array('An errror occured , please try again'));
}
}
i am trying to ask permissions by
$url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(
'canvas' => 1,
'fbconnect' => 0,
'scope' => 'read_stream,friends_likes,user_birthday'
)):
but it is not asking for any permission , the default array is always printing . why is that . please help . thanks in advance

Answer 1

Try doing this instead:
$url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array('scope' => 'read_stream,friends_likes,user_birthday'));

Answer 2

i was using the version 2 of PHP sdk , now i am using version 3 , now it is working , thank you very much . i saw some changes in two versions in this function
version 2
public function getLoginUrl($params=array()) {
$currentUrl = $this->getCurrentUrl();
return $this->getUrl(
'www',
'login.php',
array_merge(array(
'api_key' => $this->getAppId(),
'cancel_url' => $currentUrl,
'display' => 'page',
'fbconnect' => 1,
'next' => $currentUrl,
'return_session' => 1,
'session_version' => 3,
'v' => '1.0',
), $params)
);
}
version 3
public function getLoginUrl($params=array()) {
$this->establishCSRFTokenState();
$currentUrl = $this->getCurrentUrl();
// if 'scope' is passed as an array, convert to comma separated list
$scopeParams = isset($params['scope']) ? $params['scope'] : null;
if ($scopeParams && is_array($scopeParams)) {
$params['scope'] = implode(',', $scopeParams);
}
return $this->getUrl(
'www',
'dialog/oauth',
array_merge(array(
'client_id' => $this->getAppId(),
'redirect_uri' => $currentUrl, // possibly overwritten
'state' => $this->state),
$params));
}
in version 3 this i can see this additional code
// if 'scope' is passed as an array, convert to comma separated list
$scopeParams = isset($params['scope']) ? $params['scope'] : null;
if ($scopeParams && is_array($scopeParams)) {
$params['scope'] = implode(',', $scopeParams);
}
in version 2 , there is nothing called scope .and also
in version 2
return $this->getUrl(
'www',
'login.php',
in version 3
return $this->getUrl(
'www',
'dialog/oauth',
