I got Django/Mezzanine up and running, I am able to login to the admin area and create new blog posts, the posts are shown on the blog, everything works.
What I still cannot figure out: is how to allow any other user of my blog to create new blogposts while just browsing the site and not being an admin?
Googled a lot, couldn't find an answer :(
Would be very grateful for a clue!

I have a problem. I created an app in FB and then with that app I created a like button. FB says that I should see an admin link next to my like button on my website when I am logged in.
I have fb:app_id and fb:admins set up in meta, still I don'see the link. I would need it for two reason.
One is to acces the admin of the page so I can send messages for people who liked my site, also I want to set up a fanpage and once I could access the admin of the website likes according to the facebook documentation I could turn it into a fan page (FB page) this way not loosing the likes.
Thanks in advance
That functionality is deprecated, there's a migration guide on Facebook's developer site explaining how to move your OG pages to regular pages if you want to maintain part of that functionality
I'm new to facebook apps, and actually all I want is to add a 'contact us' tab to a 'like page' that I'm helping to manage. I have setup a server with PHP code, and opened an facebook app. (I left the SSL part empty because my server dose not support SSL.) And now I'm just trying to add the app to the page, but I can't find where... It's probably just a link I haven't noticed yet, but I can't find it.
I've googled around the internet, but all explanations I found where old, and didn't help me.
Just for clearness: I want to know how to add an existing facebook app to an existing facebook page
Thanks.

I'm creating an Application to upload photos to an album on a Fan Page.
This all seams to work as long as I'm the administrator for that Fan Page using the "manage_pages" permissions... but whenever I try to upload it as a "regular" user it fails because the user doesn't have the administrator rights (which of course makes perfectly sense).
I just can't seem to find a solution to solve my problem and to allow people to upload photos to the Fan Page's Album without becoming an fan-page administrator.
I really hope someone can help me since I've been struggling a few days trying to get this to work.
Cheers, Dwight
Non-Admins are not allowed to post to a fan page's album. They can post a picture to the page's feed. The page's feed album is different than the admin album. I tested this out last week for a similar question asked on S/O.
I am creating a wiki in Django where users should be able to register, login, create pages and other users who also login should be able to see all created pages and then either create new pages or edit existing ones.
I have already created registration and login pages and I am fine with creating and editing content on pages. My question is - do any of you (who know Django) know how I can implement the create new pages into my site? I think it will be in a "form" form where you then specify the URL, title, and content of the new page, but how do you actually create the new pages then and be able to view all created pages to any user?
I am stuck at this wall and any help would be appreciated!
At the time of page create with the form that you mentioned, if the user is logged in, you will want to store the user ID as a foreign key in your page Model. Then when you go to display created pages for a specific user, you just follow the relationship.
This was posted a long time ago, so you will probably just want to use this Django App as it solves all of this for you, in one beautiful package:

Have you seen the tutorial here? http://showmedo.com/videotutorials/video?name=1100000
I built a wiki with that tutorial - I think even if it doesn't answer your question may still point you in the right direction. Hope it helps!
Either my google searching has completely left me or there's hardly any documentation/tutorials for django-socialregistration. Too bad, because it seems like a nice enough app. Through some trial-and-error, I have managed to get it mostly running on my site.
My question, using django-socialregistration how do I request permission for the facebook user's full name, current city and date of birth and store it in my UserProfile table (which is my AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE for django-profiles) in Django upon registration? Also, how do I post to the user's wall from Django once the connection is made?
Currently, when I click the "Connect with Facebook" button the facebook connection is made, a new Django user is created and the user is logged in with that Django account. However, no UserProfile is created and no facebook profile data is saved.
Any facebook connect gurus out there want to help the Django pony fly to Facebookland?
Setup:
- Django 1.2.1
- Python 2.5.2
- django-socialregistration 0.4.2
- django-registration 0.7
- django-profiles 0.2
"Kind sir, can you please help me find the magical Facebookland?"
In facebook_js.html you need to adjust the following line, by uncommenting items that you need to get from FB:
FB.login(handleResponse/*,{perms:'publish_stream,sms,offline_access,email,read_stream,status_update,etc'}*/);
Then, in FacebookMiddleware you can extract that data from fb_user, like this:
facebook.GraphAPI(fb_user['access_token']).get_object('me')
FWIW, I just found this moderately helpful nugget from the app author buried in the "Issues" section on github:
question from "tolano":
I have a profile model associated with the users, and everytime the user is created the profile should be created also. Should we create a new custom setup view for this purpose?
I'm finding several problems because the documentation is poor. Thank you very much.
answer from "flashingpumpkin":
Yes. Ideally you'll overwrite the setup view with your own. An easier method to adjust what is done on user creation is to pass a custom form into the setup view. You'll do that by overriding the standard url.
Here's another relevant nugget (source: http://github.com/flashingpumpkin/django-socialregistration/issues/closed#issue/7) Enough of these and this page will become the de facto django-socialregistration documentation ;)
question from "girasquid":
Maybe I'm just missing something, but I'm stuck here - is there a way to 'connect' accounts on other sites to an already-existing user?
For example, I've already signed up on Really Awesome Website, so I don't need to sign up again - but I'd like to connect my Facebook and Twitter accounts so that I can sign in with those as well.
Is there a way to do this already? If there isn't...how would I do it?
answer from "flashingpumpkin":
Yes there is. Just use the same template tags for Facebook Connect as you would for registration. Depending on if the user is already logged in or not it will create just the FacebookProfile object and link it to the existing user - or create both, the User object and the FacebookProfile object.
