Not so helpful: outdated FB "Gift" application documentation
Has anybody been successful in cloning the FB "Gifts" app?
It appears both Zembly and Facebook have updated their UI since the help documentation was written. I've tried putting together a "ShopDenver" app but there is a huge disconnect between "steps 1-6" and what the pages actually show.
A minor example are the entry of the API keys, which according to the documentation go into fields in the wizard (which never appear) but presumably go into the API keychain instead, which I discovered by rummaging around the site.
There's some promise, but I have to tell you I don't have a lot of enthusiasm for continuing this process if it appears to be a teeth-pulling exercise.

Inappropriate?Hi Brian,
We're sorry you're experiencing difficulties. What wiki document are you referring to exactly? Is it the one below?
http://wiki.zembly.com/wiki/Facebook_...
In what part did you get stuck in particular? My understanding is that you didn't get to copy the keys from Facebook into zembly.
I would love to help!

Inappropriate?I copied the Facebook keys into the location https://zembly.com/ui/keychain
There are a number of fields in the Facebook Developer UI that require information. It was not simple to find the corresponding places in Zembly to copy that information and vice versa.
I would appreciate your assistance in this. Right now is not a good time to work on this application. Right now it is 3:20pm where I am at. 7-9pm is a better time for me, or let me know when works for you.
I’m cautiously optimistic

Inappropriate?While user keychain (accessible from the You page) can be in theory used with Facebook applications; it's not the easiest route. It's better to insert the keys into the application using the Facebook registration wizard as described on the wiki here:

We'll be improving the usability of the wizard soon. Please stay tuned!
