I am currently having a Facebook app which is already deployed in the production. Since, Facebook is going to remove the feature “Post to friend’s wall” soon. So that, I have to submit the Open Graph action to Facebook to use Mention Tagging instead.
In the submission period, I have to deploy the new website and wait Facebook to review it.
The problem is:
-
During the time that I am waiting Facebook to approve the action, other users in my website will not be allowed to use mention tagging.
-
Since the site URL of Facebook App can be only one (which is now pointing to production). So I couldn’t deploy the testing stage to another URL and point the site URL to it.
What should I do? Thanks.
Set the App-Domain to “yourapp.com”.
Now have the regular, live app at http://www.yourapp.com or whatever, and put the new version, which is to be approved, at beta.yourapp.com. When submitting the action, point to the beta.yourapp.com-URL – the platform-team will follow your links.
The bottom line: setting the App-Domain allows you to run the app on a domain wildcard, *.yourapp.com.
