Creating a Facebook Application

---

To create a Facebook App, go and visit: http://developers.facebook.com/

Step 1:

Click on the “Create New App/ Add a New App” link.

Note: You need to use a personal Facebook Account for creating an App. A business account won’t work. Your personal account needs to be a verified Facebook account. If your account isn’t verified yet, you’ll receive a text message from Facebook to verify your account. So make sure, that you have a mobile number set within your account, otherwise you won’t be able to create an App.

Step 2:

     You Enter the App Display Name and the contact email and click the “Create App ID”.

Step 3:

     Now it will redirect to the “Add Product” page and in this page click the “Set Up” button in “Facebook Login”.

Step 4:

    Click the “Web” button.

Step 5:

     In the “Site URL” section add your site url and save it.

Note: If the “Quickstart” page is blank and you cannot enter the domain url, please go to “Settings > Basic” section, just below the Dashboard and then click the “Add Platform” as shown below.

     Then select the “website” as given below.

      In this page you can add the site url and save it.

Step 6:

     Click on the “Facebook Login >Settings” link as shown below.

     Here enter the “Valid OAuth redirect URIs”.

    Please use this OAuth redirect URI in the facebook settings.

     After entering the OAuth redirect URI and enable the “Client OAuth Login and Web OAuth Login”, please save the changes.

Step 7:

     The app is ready now. Click the “Setting > Basic” link in the menu to see the app id and secret.

     In the “Setting > Basic” we can see the App ID and App Secret.

     The App ID and App Secret are now ready. Click the “Show”button to see the App Secret. (The app secret is in alphanumeric and DON’T use ******* as App Secret.)

Step 8:

     Configure the App ID and App Secret with the plugin.
