PHP facebook application - php

Question

I'm starting out to learn how to build a Facebook application, but I've run in to some problems. I can't seem to find a simple tutorial on how to authenticate and ask for permissions from the user. The app itself is in php and consists of a simple quiz. I'm using the php sdk 3.0, but in the example file you have to login before you are asked to allow permissions. I just want the user to be redirected to the permissions prompt when the app is loaded.
So, to be more specific, I need som sort of basic script that authenticates and ask the user for permissions. I'm using the php sdk, but if there is a better way please feel free to suggest this.

Answer 1

Here is a list of all permissions

Answer 2

try getting this url on some link or redirect the user to it:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth/?scope=email,user_about_me,publish_stream&client_id=xxxxxxxxxxx&redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URL&response_type=token
where the scope are the permission you are asking for, the clien_id sould be your app id (not the secret) and the redirect_uri (its URI not URL) is the site that the user will see after installing (I recomend to get here te full facebook app URL, i.e https://facebook.com/fanpage/?sk=app_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
and thats the simpliest way, if you feel capable of more stuff you can use this PHP code:
$fbconfig['appid'] = "xxxyyy";
$fbconfig['secret'] = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
$fbconfig['baseurl'] = "https://www.facebook.com/pages/FANPAGE/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?sk=xxxyyy";
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => $fbconfig['appid'],
'secret' => $fbconfig['secret'],
'cookie' => true,
));
$user = $facebook->getUser();
$loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl(
array(
'scope' => 'email,user_about_me,publish_stream',
'redirect_uri' => $fbconfig['baseurl'],
'display' => 'popup'
)
);
and redirect user to the $loginUrl.
hope it helps, cheers.
