Post a event to application wall on facebook

Question

Hi guys,

the basic idea is, I created a application of which users will become fans and get the latest and greatest events from. For that I will need to post a event to the wall page of the application itself.

Creating a event is not a problem (I'm using PHP5):

 $event_id=$facebook->api_client->events_create(json_encode($FB));

But I couldn't find any reference on how to publish a wall entry for that. This would only show up in the "event" tab I tried using stream_publish - which works fine, but again I couldn't find a way to create a event.

Any hints would be appreciated.

Answer 1

create an event and then publish stream with a link to that event ? i dont think u can post events directly to wall

Answer 2

My hubby just figured it out -- because I was trying to gooogle the same answer! Create your event from your wall! (There is an event button right there with the link/picture buttons, where you update your status.)

From that event button you fill in the minor details - once it's created, you can go in and edit to add more details.
