Facebook Javascript Migration for API 2.0

1.  Change FB.INIT

Add the version you upgrade to in our case 2.3

FB.init({
  appId      : '{app-id}',
  version    : 'v2.3'
});

2. Change Facebook javascript library

from Version 1.0

js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js";

to Version 2.0

js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js";

Update Social Plugins code

<script>(function(d, s, id) {
  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s);
  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
  js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#version=v2.0&xfbml=1&appId=113263196637420";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

<div
  class="fb-like"
  data-href="https://blog.metaprime.at/"
  data-layout="standard"
  data-action="like"
  data-show-faces="true"
  data-share="true">
</div>

After update all calls to the API automatically go from FB.api(‘/me’, …);   to FB.api(‘/2.0/me’, …);

Facebook SDK ERRORs that could happen

invalid version specified :

check if <div id=”fb-root”></div> is present right after Body opening. Last but not least don’t forget the Version Format V   v2.3 for the Version String .

FB.init has already been called – this could indicate a problem

GRAPH URL QUERIES replaced by new URL node

If you us the Graph API for URL Stats they announce a new Url node anyway i don’t see any difference expept that the url is  now encoded and any access token is required now.  It return a bit more details .

og_object  | id | description | type | updated_time | url |

graph.facebook.com/?id= {url}

share

Share count will represent total interaktion Like + Share from these ulr .

Needs a non expiring access token . So no big changes for that part
