Coranto to Facebook?

Postby Tanus » Mon Jan 25, 2010 9:49 pm

Has anyone looked into publishing/updating a facebook profile from coranto? I've seen some organisations have created their own profile/page on Facebook, which gives good integration to were you find quite a significant number of readers. Integrated with Coranto you would be able to update just one place and then let that update "migrate" on it's own...

I have been using Coranto to publish to Facebook for the past few months, although If memory serves correctly, I found it easier to submit via API to my Twitter page, and then fed the Twitter right to Facebook, updating both of my pages at once.

I use it both for calendar use and my announcement news. However, it's just a little php script I'm using with cron to export the news. If there is interest, I will be happy to dig it up.

I'd certainly be interested in seeing how the Twitter script works.

Thanks :)

I foresee that the route through Twitter will limit the amount of text posted to Facebook as I were thinking of putting parts of my news-service to a Facebook page. It could be somewhat more than what I am putting to my RSS-feeds, but after the same model. If the text size is above a certain limit I would cut off the rest and link my main site.

Besides this I would be interested in the script, although my spare time to spend on this is rather limited at the moment. I placed the question mainly to be able to answer if someone asked for it, and as I might get time to do it closer to summer.

Please @ Jackanape.
I hope you can give us the codes you used or just give us idea.
Nevertheless, I will be thankful still. =)
