Facebook Share Dialog

Question

I am building a Facebook app and trying to implement a share dialog. Currently, I've only found how to create a feed dialog that allows you to post to your own wall (see image below).

What I am trying to achieve is a "Share" dialog that allows users to select whether they want to post to their own wall, on a friend's timeline, or a page. Spotify allows this functionality from their feed posts (see spotify example image below).

In addition to creating the share dialog, how do I add a "Share" action next to "Like" and "Comment" on a feed post?

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

What you are looking for is the Share Button . Facebook has deprecated this and claim it will no longer be supported. If you want, you can still directly pop open a window with the content of the sharer by using a url similar to this:

https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=http://google.com

and just change out the value of the u query string parameter
