Seperate live and development URL's
Posted Fri, 09/03/2010 - 12:27 by 671114574@facebook

Hi everyone,

I just got started with Drupal for Facebook and it's working great. I've added Facebook Connect to my live site. Now I want to develop new functions and so I have another instance of my website for development, with a different URL. The problem is that the url of the website is specified in the Facebook Application settings (Site URL, Deauthorize URL, Post-Authorize URL). So I can't do any meaningful development on the dev website.

I could of course set up a seperate application on Facebook. But then I'd have to edit everything twice - not ideal. Is there a better solution? How do you do it?

Personally, I create multiple apps on facebook. And that's my recommendation for anyone trying the same thing. There are a number of settings (like the ones you list) that I only configure for the live application. The devel apps need only the most basic settings, and modules/fb will set most of those for you automatically.
