I would be grateful for some assistance with Facebook Social Plugins.
I have a bunch of portfolio items on my website that are rendered with a fb-comments-plugin at the bottom of the page.
At the top of the page (in the header) is a "like" button that is designed to cover the whole site (i.e. if you "like" the site - click the "like" at the top of the page). But, if you want to "like" the post - click the "like" alongside the post.
Anyway, every now and again - the comments plugin on one of the portfolio items indicates to me:
"Warning: {url} is not accessible"
This does not appear to be consistent across all items. For instance:
http://www.greensidefilms.com.au/portfolio/bride/
does not work, but:
http://www.greensidefilms.com.au/portfolio/twilight/
does work...
Confused I am, seeing as it is exactly the same code generating all these pages.
Is there something not quite right with the og meta tags that is causing the plugin to be confused?
Those links you provided are dead
I had some trouble when I first started working with the Facebook social plugins and found that the problem you are describing is with the APP ID, it is designed to work with a domain in your case yes it is the same domain however you should double check if the same APP ID is being used in all your plugins, using the wrong APP ID will cause that kind of behavior.

If you try sharing via Google+ most of the articles on this WordPress site: appgo2market.com
you'll noticed that title when Google+ is wrong when trying to share.
This happens also if you cut and paste link to a post on your personal Google+ account for sharing.
I didn't see yet, any relation to what may need to be done on a WordPress site to solve this.
Any idea what needs to be done, on a WordPress site, using thesis2, to solve this?
Looks like many of the pages are behind a "become a member" section, which is the title I see being picked up. The title for the share can be controlled by adding schema.org markup, or by changing the title tag of the page. Take a look at this page for more details: https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/
What I am trying to do is to make something similar to what I see all the time on almost any website. The button that says Share to facebook. The goal for me is to let my guests share the item they are viewing in my store (Ran on prestashop) on their blog I run (Running on Oxwall).
The goal is for the button to not only link to a blog post submission webpage but to already have the subject line filled out with the item they are sharing's name and the blog post to display the information about the item. I would like to try and do all this using PHP. I am not sure how to go about doing it but I am sure that I could pass the value. Please note that I can mod BOTH the blog site and the shop as I run both and want to connect them.
As an extra bonus I am also running a forum using phpbb3 if I could do the same thing but onto that as well I would greatly thank you. I am trying to interlink everything into one big network. I know its not an easy task but I am sure there is an easy way to pass data onto the other site so that this can be done.
Facebook a 2 tools to get items informations in the page, it parses the page looking for the most common tags and it uses OpenGraph.
You can also provide product informations in the head of your page (between head tags), then blog side, you retrieve only the contents and parse it as XML.
I advise you to cache this data to avoid useless connections between websites and awful overloads while parsing.
You can use your own specifications, Open Graph or another standard, but i advise to use a standard.
I'm trying to figure out why Facebook is creating fragmentation with its pages. I really don't understand it. Also is there anything that can be done about this.
Here is a perfect example I have my Facebook company page for "Scoreoid" (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Scoreoid/245182948843019) this has my content wall post's, photos ect..
Then I have this page which I guess is only connected to the Scoreoid website which is new and was automatically done http://www.facebook.com/pages/Scoreoid-the-ultimate-game-platform-for-developers/269861406410210
This is the page for the Scoreoid site which has 130 likes but of course on Facebook it only shows 15 another question either way why is there two pages why can't everything be connected to one page.
All this does is create fragmentation which is noting but bad user experiences.
It would max sense to have everything directed to the Facebook main page. Of course I have other questions for which do I run advertising on which should I update with content?
I've already answered you here two weeks ago:
Facebook Likes not showing on Facebook page but show up on site
Facebook pages like counts are NOT THE SAME as like counts for a web site. They cannot be joined by Facebook as they are two separate IDs. You can have your parsing scripts add together the two like counts yourself.
This has been my experience. If you add the open graph meta tags (og:url, og:image, og:type, etc.) Facebook will create a "facebook page", but this page will only be accessable by you. This is the message that facebook will show on this open graph page: http://snag.gy/z9UfG.jpg
If besides this you create another page then it will not be linked with this page. I recommend you use the page you created as that page is accessible by everyone.
If this is not your case then please clarify.
As I come to the end of my project I am starting to wonder if I made it too dynamic. I have designed this social networking site and 90% of it is based on JQuery. It looks nice, it loads fast but I started to wonder if it is too dynamic...
My concern is that basically once you log in, 95% of what you do is JQuery based therefore the user never leaves the same URL. If this is true, how is a search engine like Google supposed to index my website?
Is this the part where I ask myself what parts of the site I want to be indexed and make them static pages instead?
Basically it has occurred to me that if when you browse my site for user profiles, these profiles are displayed to you through JQuery requests, then it is safe to assume that these profiles can never be found in a Google search, because the Google spider would never see it. Is this true?
Thank you for any thoughts on this,

Make your site work in both "modes". For example, I'm on my dashboard and I want to check out my friend Joe's profile, there should just be an A tag with the href set to something like "/profiles/joe".
Now, onDomReady, when the page loads, run your javascript to go through the links and attach click handers to those links, and load the profile dynamically using your existing jQuery style.
This development style is called "progressive enhancement" and allows both search engines and human accessibility devices to work better with your website. Check it out.
I have a website where i implement a wall of messages, the idea is to add to each of this wall messages a like button, where clicking on it would immediately post on the user's facebook profile page that he likes THAT SPECIFIC COMMENT.
Is this possible? I just enter this new world of facebook php developers, and as far as I have read here it always talks about adding a Like button for a specific URL. I would like to make the like button apply for the specific post within the messages wall.
I am clueless as where to start, if by the way any one could recommend a detailed tutorial on how to integrate a website to facebook in its different ways, i would really appreciate it.
EDIT:
Looking into #Kaan Soral suggestion of using open graph, I think it is important to add that I dont want each wall post that the user likes to appear in the "Likes and Interests" section of his profile... This wouldn't make sense because he would rapidly have loads of likes of separate wall posts.
Its possible, read this: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
You have to create a URL for every item that will be liked and on that URL there should be META tags for descriptions, image etc
