Thank you for purchasing my script. If you have any questions that are beyond the scope of this help file, please feel free to email via my user page contact form here. Thanks so much!
All files you need are inside the folder named "script".
There you will have the "config.php" file, and the "upload" folder where you can put more folder with images to post.
The instalation of the script its really simple. First you need to have your own facebook app. You can create your app really easy, just click here
An then follow this instructions.
In this example you will see an generic code where we will plugin code before
After that you will have your app created, and you will have your App ID, and App secret codes.
Open the file config.php (is in root of the folder script). And choose an username, an password and write your App id, and app secret.
<php
$user = "WriteSomeUsename"; // USERNAME TO LOGIN EG: $user = "someUser";
$psw = "WriteSomeGoodPassword"; // PASSWORD TO LOGIN EG : $psw = "safePassword277337";
$idApp = "YourAppID"; // ID OF YOUR APPLICATION EG : $idApp = "638263836299478";
$appSecret = "YourAppSECRET"; //SECRET OF YOUR APP EG : $appSecret = "ad73jdhsk288jdjfgks82hjsshf8hs";
$canvasUrl = "YourCanvasUrl"; // EG : $canvasUrl = "http://myurl.com";
$folder = "upload"; //NAME OF YOUR FOLDER WITH IMAGES EG : $folder = "myImageFolder";
?>
After finish this configuration. Save this file, and upload all files and folders inside "script" folder to the root of your server. You can use any ftp client to this work. If you are not sure how to use an ftp client contact your hosting provider to help you. Make sure your upload folder have 755 permission. Inside the folder "upload" you can put more folders with images that you will use in your posts. Never delete your root folder "upload". Please rename the file a.htaccess to .htaccess using your ftp client.
Now to start posting open your script adress in your brownser. And you will see login menu. You have to login with username and password you choose before.
The first option you will see after login is the config. You will need to ask a new token when you use this script for the first time.
Time to time you shoud renew your token. Usually facebook tokens are valid for 60 days.
The option Pages let you Add and remove pages that you want to post.
Simply use your page url to add this page. To your list. Of course you will need to be has administrator of the page to add the page.
Before start posting make sure your APP is NOT on sandbox mode or you will be the only one that see your posts. And make sure that you already have a token. You have that information on Config option.
The option Posts generate posts from some specific folder or from some CSV (excell) file that you put in root of your script.
You can choose the number of posts, the time of first post and the time that will pass between each post. Very important. You CANT define a date in past. And All posts for future are just valid if they are not in next 10 minutes. Here is and example of a valid CSV file.
You can choose if you want to delete files that you use on your posts after posting or not. And you can choose if you want to use the name of the files to put on description. The delimiter is "_" so file called this_photo_is_funny.jpg will generate the description "this photo is funny".
After generate the posts. If you choose generate from folder you can add some description to each image. The faster way to do it is select the first textarea and after right your text just press TAB and the next textarea will be automatic selected. But you can use options to fill descriptions automatic (all with same text). When you finish click post all and dont close the page before you get the success message.
After the post done and you make sure you can see it in activity log of your page you can delete images you dont need to keep that images in your server.
The option folders let you upload new folders or images to folders that already exist.
You delete old folders you dont need too.
The option Live posts let you create posts from RSS feed. You can add multiple RSS feeds and then select one or more pages and set how many time you will wait between each verification. Then just click start posting. When a new post is found will post in all pages you select.
You can not close the page because that page will be working search for new posts. But you can open other tabs of course.
If you need some help just let your comment, thank you
