I set my Facebook User (App ID) from a list of users, then I try to select an album and when I clic the button, it returns the message "Facebook API Error: Unknown method (3)".
Phocagallery 3.2.3 and Joomla 2.5.9
I had the unable to login issue: "API Error Code: 100 API Error Description: Invalid parameter
Error Message: Please migrate to OAuth2 and use new /dialog/oauth endpoint. return_session is no longer available." And I solved it upgrading 3.2.1 to 3.2.3, but I can't import facebook images yet.

Hi, did you ask Facebook developers for this error? Unfortunatelly the comunications goes from your server to facebook server and back - it communicates to your application on Facebook.

I am testing it now on three different systems (include my localhost) and get normally the albums from Facebook. Try to recheck the Application settings :idea:

Where are the lines of code that send the petition of the albums to FB? I think it's something concerning to the pop up window.

I am having a similar issue. I think the problem may be creating and configuring the facebook app. There seems to be no clear instructions on this:.

Hi.
These are my Facebook users settings on Phoca's administration panel, and I think it's ok:

I guess the Facebook app is also correct, :

The problem may be some files missing in my com_phocagallery folder, or are they in other location? - "administrator\components\com_phocagallery\views\phocagalleryfba\view.html.php"-

i have similar settings, and i am still getting "Facebook API Error: Unknown method (3)"

I am using PHOCA Bete 4.0. Anyone had any success with Beta 4.0 and importing fb galleries?

Having the same issue with Joomla 2.5.9 and Phocagallery 3.2.3

After the complete setup of the Facebook application and setting up the Facebook User datas I am getting the error message "Facebook API Error: Unknown method (3)" when trying to create a new Phocagallery category by choosing my FB account and after that trying to select an FB album.

@oscarherrera:

Could it be, that you're in the wrong directory? Your screenshot shows the directory /components/com_phocagallery/views, but you will find the view.html.php in the administrator directory administrator/components/com_phocagallery/views/phocagalleryfba
