Hi,

I'm using the Facebook API Graph (C# & ASP.NET) to try to dynamically post to a Facebook page I created.

Looking at the code samples floating around.. they suggest creating a Facebook App first (which I have done)..

However..

  1. I have 3 different pages I want to post to.. Do I need to create an app for each? (I want to post different things to the 3 pages, not the same posts to each)

  2. I just want messages & links to appear as Wall posts. I'm not bothered about having an 'app' that has 'canvas' that is placed in an IFrame.

Question : So do I still need to write one or more Facebook Apps to post to my 3 different Facebook pages??

Where I am so far.. I can pass in my apps credentials and get back the access_token. But my posts don't appear to be going anywhere.

I'd rather drop the 'facebook application /canvas' approach if possible If I can post directly to a wall (For the above reasons).

Oh, and before you ask. I don't want to post to my Apps Wall page, I want to post to my other pages (Unless I have to post to my Apps Wall page first?).

I'm sure loads of people have the same questions..

Thanks in advance.
