  • > How do i Prompt a wall post using instant games, your answer was:

    You've confused two different services. They both happen to be run by Facebook, but they are different.

    The Facebook plugin uses the Facebook API which can share wall posts to the user's Facebook account. However it's mostly defunct now in favour of the new Instant Games service.

    The Instant Games plugin uses the Instant Games API which can share to the current Messenger thread. It can't make wall posts, because it's designed to run in Messenger, an instant messaging app.

    Both are run by Facebook, but this doesn't change the fact you can't make wall posts from Instant Games.

    I'm afraid you have confused the capabilities of the two services. Getting upset won't help anything. Please refer to the Forum & Community guidelines; you will be held to these rules regardless of the issue at hand.

    Again Ashley ......... I am only talking about IG , the option where you go for example "on button click" > IG >share (or invite etc). Everything with IG is working except this, that is why i am so short tempered i am sorry. Do you have any tips or examples? Since every thing with IG is working , EXCEPT the share function, maybe some plugin is blocking it for me?

  • Guys, please keep it civil.

    Sami, I have looked at your reports and deemed no action is currently necessary, Fredriksthlm was only trying to help but there's obviously been some miscommunication here.

    Lol i dont want action i wanted to know if this was normal on c3 community. fredriksthlm helped me out tho by answering the question. Hiding in a layer is good, tho it doesn't pop anything, the console shows nothing, its like it does not even run the function.

    This is getting out of hand haha, my question is just how do i make the share option on IG work, all the other IG options work! And GeorgeZaharia what you say works, but i am still not getting a popup when it comes to the IG "share" , IG show add and everything else works, facebook login works. I am so confused, i am sorry if this thread got out of hand haha i am just so tired after trying all the solutions.

  • my question was:

    How do i Prompt a wall post using instant games, your answer was:

    it is not possible and you are not allowed to have any other permissions for IG than the defaults.

    and it is not possible or allowed in any way to use any standard facebook features in an IG. fredriksthlm

    Ashley your answer as a mod was

    You're confusing the Facebook API with Instant Games. They're different.

    I am very confused yes, since i am asking how to use instant games, 1 guy says it wont work, you say i confuse the facebook SDK with the IG, no , i am still asking about IG , doesn't have to have anything to do with user_posts i thought i had to do it since it was not working when i tryed to share using IG. Now i know IG does not require permissions, but this i figured out myself not by answers that create confusion.

    fredriksthlm you replied to me with

    you are not allowed to use any facebook features at all in IG. it is a different sdk.

    The Share function in IG works without any extra permissions. do not request other permissions than the defaults from facebook for an IG.

    Sounds you are a bit confused about the sdk.

    A tip: Take an hour to read the IG guidelines and the sdk before you continue with your game.

    And THAT was helpful, that was my question, first you said it will not work, but now i understand you. IG can share, and that is exactly my problem, i cannot get it to work, while show ads etc works.So i am asking people for an example or some help, not the difference between 2 sdk's

  • i have a similar thread here: construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/how-do-i-8/how-do-i-prompt-wall-post-inst-142381 but its not the same, since people there does not answer my question they are answering other stuff.

    I would like an example of how to share using instant games, if anyone got that please share it!

    Ashley I have a paid license for Construct 3 that i hope includes service, do not delete this post since as you can see , my last post is not going anywhere but instead is confusing everybody with answers that is not related to my question.

    This topic is mainly ABOUT IG and questions about IG , please if anyone has some experience , post !

  • you are not allowed to use any facebook features at all in IG. it is a different sdk.

    wow.. are you trying to make me look bad or wtf? The post asks about INSTANT GAME SHARE , i call it facebook since instant games is facebook. Now i do not need a explanation about the different SDK's, my Question was AND STILL REMAINS TO BE related to how you use the share function in IG , i did another thread with the title specified but Ashley removed it. Yet again you are the one confused fredriksthlmsince the question has always been why instant games share is not working, that is ALL i am asking, and that is why i made a new thread since you guys get confused.

    So IGNORE FACEBOOK PLUGIN, IGNORE TITLE.

    I have read through both IG documentation and facebook's documentation, i have facebook games out. The only thing not working is the "share" function, wich has been this whole thread but you guys keep saying i am confused?

    FOCUS ON MY QUESTION: Instant games, i have done countless of examples but no share function is working for me, that is why i thought i had to fix the permissions? This is a construct 3 community right? To get help? all i am getting right now is "corrections" of what SDK's are and API bla bla YES i know but still, if you read trough the thread you will see that my question has NOTHING to do with your answers, i am asking why my instant games is not showing up the share functions, wich — said will not work, so i am very confused. '

    Anyone else that uses instant games that can help me? That don't feel the urge to explain the different SDK's and that facebook and ig are different plugins , please just answer the question. If you don't want to help there is no need to reply.

  • Okay still tho Both instant games and Facebook plugin got The option to prompt or share, ddint answer my question Ashley you say i duplicate threads well i have to since The title here is confusing people. My question is and remains to be why is there a share option in the instant games plugin if you cant use it? And if you can, how Come it aint working?

    as the title says, been trying for days, i got a weird answer here construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/how-do-i-8/how-do-i-prompt-wall-post-inst-142381

    , i mean instant games has the option to share? so if it doesn't work why is it still there as a feature? and i got approved today on the facebook developer page added user_posts as permissions, i have no idea why it wont work.

  • > it is not possible and you are not allowed to have any other permissions for IG than the defaults.

    >

    Now i don't understand you correctly`? your saying its NOT possible, while instant games plugin still have the option? if it is not possible why does construct 3 have the option to share ? I got granted the permissions today by facebook you just have to be reviewed? Anyone else here that can confirm instant games Share or facebook share function dont work in construct 3?

    As i read that you need user_posts permissions do even share on the wall, so i am asking you fredriksthlm its not possible to share a wall post with the users score ? it doesnt have to do with user_posts i am just asking is this not possible since that is what my title says and you said its not possible. werid that c3 got the option for it.

  • it is not possible and you are not allowed to have any other permissions for IG than the defaults.

  • "1. creation of a dictionary and a table

    2. Save the dictionary and table in the file system

    3. Checking the existence of the file"

    FALSE!

    At the beginning of the scene I check that the "system" folder exists.

    If it doesn't exist, I create it and also create the file "system\système.core".

    If it exists, I check that the file "system\système.core" exists.

    If it doesn't exist, I'll create it!

    I don't have a "Table" object or a dictionary object in my project!

    Thank you for reading and answering me!

    Local storage on start of layout check if key "test" exist

    if exist get key "test"

    if missing create key "test"

    etc etc
