    <p>I'm developing a PHP game and would like to post players highscores to their own facebook wall /timeline.</p> <p>I've set up a Facebook App and the PHP code I'm using to POST the score is (as provided by Facebook itself):</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php require 'facebook-sdk/facebook.php'; $app_id = MY_APP_ID; $app_secret = MY_APP_SECRET; $score = 1500; // this is gonna be passed someway... $facebook = new Facebook(array( 'appId' =&gt; $app_id, 'secret' =&gt; $app_secret, )); $user = MY_USER_ID; // to be replaced with a call to $facebook-&gt;getUser() $app_access_token = get_app_access_token($app_id, $app_secret); $facebook-&gt;setAccessToken($app_access_token); $response = $facebook-&gt;api('/' . $user . '/scores', 'post', array( 'score' =&gt; $score, )); print($response); // Helper function to get an APP ACCESS TOKEN function get_app_access_token($app_id, $app_secret) { $token_url = 'https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?' . 'client_id=' . $app_id . '&amp;client_secret=' . $app_secret . '&amp;grant_type=client_credentials'; $token_response =file_get_contents($token_url); $params = null; parse_str($token_response, $params); return $params['access_token']; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Of course there is a login and install section which I have omitted, asking the user to login and grant '<code>publish_stream</code>' and '<code>publish_actions</code>' privileges to the app.</p> <p>This is working with success, the response variable outputs 1. I can see the posted score using the Facebook Graph API Explorer so I assume everything is really working fine and smooth.</p> <p>The problem is that I am not able to see the supposedly posted user-story anywhere on Facebook. Reading the documentation it seems to me that a user story has to be automatically published when one saves a score. As an example, have a look <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2012/03/05/games-update--expanding-distribution-for-scores-and-achievements/" rel="noreferrer">here</a> or <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/games/getting-started/#step4" rel="noreferrer">here</a>.</p> <p>Does anyone solved this problem already? Do you see something that I might have missing? Can you please point me at the right direction to solve this issue?</p> <p>Any help will be highly appreciated.</p>

    2. COAre you sure you're using a valid app access token? (i.e. try `echo`ing it out and making sure it is what you expect) Have you tried replicating the request in the [Graph API explorer](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/)?

    3. COUnfortunately I did both, as I wrote: the score does gets saved by Facebook but no post is appearing anywhere as I expected from the docs.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
