Question

I currently am developing a Magento driven online store which allows for a user to share a product on Facebook and get the opinion of others. It works quite well for sharing one product, however I also a comparison feature on the site which allows a user to choose a few products and then compare them. I would like the ability for a user to share all of the products they’re considering and get the opinion of their Facebook friends.

Is it possible to have multiple attachments when posting to a Facebook users wall through the Facebook feed dialog, if so, could someone please point me to the appropriate location.

Here is the current code I am using to share a product with one attachment.

function post_to_fb()
{
    FB.ui(
    {
        method: 'stream.publish',
        attachment: {
            name: '<?php echo $_product->getName() ?>',
            description: (
                '<?php echo $_product->getShortDescription() ?>'
            ),
            source: '<?php echo Mage::helper('catalog/image')->init(Mage::registry('current_product'), 'small_image')->resize(100,100);?>',
            href: '<?php echo Mage::helper('core/url')->getCurrentUrl() ?>'
             },
             action_links: [
             { text: 'View the Product', href: '<?php echo Mage::helper('core/url')->getCurrentUrl() ?>' }
             ],
              user_prompt_message: 'Personal message here'
             },
                 function(response) {
                     if (response && response.post_id) {
                         alert('Post was published.');
                     } else {
                         alert('Post was not published.');
                     }
                 }
             ); 
          }

Not long ago, I have answered a similar question here. It’s about customizing the feed posted to Facebook, and the answer is no.

But Facebook just pull out lots of changes, including some changes in posting feed. I have noticed the new “properties” params. Though document is not clear, you can test your luck with the “properties” in the document about FB.ui here.
