645353 - Sharing Badges via FB and Twitter don't work

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Websites :: spark.mozilla.org, defect)

Description

[Caitlin Looney]

1. I am on the staging (allizom) site today.
2. When I want to share my badge, I clicked on Twitter and it wouldn't let me "Cancel" I had to close the window entirely.
3. When I clicked on FB, it produced an error message and then rediredted me my page/wall to add a comment (I suppose) manually. Is that the behavior you're seeing?

The Facebook error is known, as they weren't able to create two separate app IDs for Facebook within their code -- so, Facebook sharing only works on dark launch, iirc.  Not sure about the Twitter error you're seeing -- I just shared Raymond's test spark: http://twitter.com/#!/zhulu_kid/status/51693428257460224

Hi Caitlin,

2. This is a flaw in Twitter's sharing page. For some reason, clicking the
cancel button doesn't close the popup. I have no control over this.

3. The facebook sharing on the staging site no longer works because I set the
Facebook app URL to spark.mozilla.org this morning. As a result, it should now
work on the production server but not on stage. It can't unfortunately work on
both at the same time.

Ok. Yes, I am on staging because I'm at home. There error I am seeing on FB: "
API Error Code: 191
API Error Description: The specified URL is not owned by the application
Error Message: redirect_uri is not owned by the application."
