The docs here https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/share/deep-link seem to be hopelessly out of date, as I cannot find any of the mentioned (like "Edit settings").
Can somebody provide some guidance on how to make a deep link to my app work from within a Google+ post?
e.g., I would expect a link such as "appname://?id=12345678" to be a clickable thing that directs the user either to install the app or opens the installed app and takes the user directly to the content specified by the id. Instead, this link is posted as plain text...
Moreover, will I need to fight with every social network to get deep links to work properly? Does anybody have any experience making this sort of thing work on Twitter, Facebook, etc?
We are developing with Meteor, and using the Cordova cordova-plugin-x-socialsharingplugin https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/SocialSharing-PhoneGap-Plugin
You may want to try using App Invites, which either will let the app receive data from the invitation if the app is already installed (e.g. a coupon) or will install the app.

I have firebase deep links working in my app, and when a user visits them on desktop it takes them to a custom webpage I made that says "This content is only available on the app. Please download it to continue" with app store links for my app.
I want to add a form that says "enter your phone number to get texted the link to download the app" and I have no issues doing that with twilio.
Where I'm stuck is that I want to SMS the original deep link to the user. But the firebase deep link system already redirected me to the desktop page so I don't have access to the deep link anymore. Is there any way to get the original deep link?
I do have the path of the original deep link in the URL so I could possibly reconstruct it? But is there an easier way, or an existing solution to my problem of wanting to get users to install our app without losing the deep link context?
If you create your originally link manually you can use the Other Platform Parameters ofl to send a parameter of the dynamic link to be sent in text message to the desktop users.
See the doc's on how to manually create your link.
Alternatively, in the past I've added a parameter to the short link which has been passed through to the webapp, maybe you could use that to pass the dynamic link. Not tested, but should have the desired effect.
I would like to create chatbot window. I found perfect version on AdminLTE page (link: https://adminlte.io/themes/AdminLTE/index2.html -> Direct Chat or Chat). The main problem is that I want to have posibility to send message and have history of that to end of session. Does anyone know how to do that? I spent a lot of time by searching internet, but unfortunately I haven't found anything a bit similiar.
Personally, I really like using https://chatra.io/ on my website with ShinyApps. There is no need for you to develop anything and it's free with 1 agent.
On top of that, I use cloudflare as I was getting tired of referrer spam and it comes as a plugin and easy to use, note that Cloudflare offers other chat plugins also so you can choose. Below is an example of one of my apps from my website
i am currently working on an autoposter app to publish content on my own fanpages. This is the only function the app is going to be used for. My personal profile will be the only user of the app.
I have read through the documentation for developers but I still have trouble figuring this out.
From what I understand I don't have to submit the app for review to facebook if I only need the manage_pages right.
How does this work for an app that will only be used by me? Do I still have to submit it to facebook to be able to use the manage_pages and publish_pages permission? Or is there a way around that?
I try to follow the Instructions here but I also consulted this. I was able to install the plugin, create my Facebook app, get the namespace, icon etc. even a test post worked, but when I click "submit", I get a dialog box that says this:
Built-in Action Types require that you provide instructions for using your app's Open Graph integration as your Open Graph Test User in a functioning test environment. Failure to provide a functioning test environment will result in rejection of your Action Type.
I've tried typing in the box, but when I click continue I just get this box again. I wanted to setup auto syncing and ditch Networked Blogs, but maybe I should have stayed with a working solution, given this has gone far from smoothly. How do I get the publish article action submitted and approved?
I actually got the Facebook for WordPress plugin to work, but I didn't find it actually made my blog better. It seemed to run slow, unexpectedly stopped working at times, and did not result in increased traffic. If you want to share your posts to Facebook and you can stand clicking the button yourself after you hit publish, I recommend the Professional Share plugin. If you want related posts, I recommend the Yet Another Related Post Plugin.
The Facebook for WordPress plugin and JetPack are just too big, they have too much cruft, they are not worth running in my opinion and I've been using WordPress since 2005. Just because a big corporation makes an official plugin, doesn't mean it is the best.
I'm working on a site with a Facebook Connect integration on blog posts. I want a Facebook .NET SDK that will allow me to:
Authenticate that a user is logged into FB. The actual login will be done via the typical FBML login button and simple JS with the XD Receiver.
Be able to push data from my WebForm to the user's FB profile, such as a status update.
I do not need to:
Create an actual FB application that goes on your profile, like "Cheer for the Red Sox" app or whatever. I do completely understand that I need to create an app using the Developer application but I'm not indenting to create a real full app.
Do any special stuff other than know the user's basics and push data to the profile.
Now are there any good starting points or SDKs I should look at. I've tried Facebook.NET and also peeked into FBConnectAuth. It seems like the former is too much and the latter is too little of what I need. However, that was a quick glance so are there any people with good experiences that did simple things?
Help is much appreciated!
Have you tried this example?
Post status to Facebook profile without Facebook modal window using ASP.NET
If you have any feature requests for FBConnectAuth, please let me know.

For me, Raya's integration of Facebook Connect is the best example out there. The author also has a good blog post where he describes how he integrated it with his existing web application..
