Question

Is there anyway to get Facebook API to work properly completely on LocalHost. I saw other peoples answers to get two keys – one to http://www.mydomain/xd_reciever.html – and one to localhost .

I do not have access to the domain name right now to put my xd_reciever.html up. I am wondering, is there anyway to get a full working version on localhost without any access to my future domain name?

Answer 1

Have you tried using a url shortening service like bit.ly to shorten localhost into a valid url?

Also, you can change your local hosts file to point a custom domain to localhost as seen here:
