I assume you are using Facebook PHP SDK in your project, if you need to check multiple permissions granted by the user using PHP, try following method. We will break string into an array, and then check for the permissions already granted by the user.
[cc lang=”php”]
$fbPermissions = ‘publish_stream,user_hometown,user_subscriptions’; //permissions
$permissions_needed = explode(‘,’,$fbPermissions); //create array by splitting string
foreach($permissions_needed as $per) //loop through each permission
{
if (!array_key_exists($per, $user_permissions[‘data’][0])) { //check whether more permission needed
die(‘We need additional ‘.$per.’ permission to continue!’);
}
}
[/cc]
Here’s how I’ve applied above method in real-time:
[cc lang=”php”]
//Required facebook permissions, separated with comma
$fbPermissions = ‘publish_stream,user_hometown,user_subscriptions’;
//include sdk
include_once(“inc/facebook.php”);
//Facebook API
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
‘appId’ => ‘app id’,
‘secret’ => ‘app secret’,
));
$fbuser = $facebook->getUser(); // get user
$loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(‘scope’ => $fbPermissions)); //login url
if(!$fbuser)
{
$loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(‘scope’ => $fbPermissions));
echo ‘Login to Facebook‘;
}
else
{
try {
$user_profile = $facebook->api(‘/me’); //user profile
$user_permissions = $facebook->api(“/me/permissions”); //list of user permissions
} catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
$fbuser = null;
}
$permissions_needed = explode(‘,’,$fbPermissions); // permission required to proceed
foreach($permissions_needed as $per) //loop thrugh each permission
{
if (!array_key_exists($per, $user_permissions[‘data’][0])) { //if more permission needed show login link
die(‘We need additional ‘.$per.’ permission to continue, click here!’);
}
}
}
[/cc]
I'm doing the exact same thing as your doing, and it works fine when I use localhost but when I use the https://apps.facebook.com/ the loginUrl doesn't work. Any ideas?
Thanks
