BOINC Stats Facebook page

Post by Neil »

Hi all,

If you're interested, I also run a BOINC Stats Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/BOINC-St ... 9951704603

I had to create it a while back for my BOINC Facebook App, but you do not have to use the app to make use of the page. I use it mainly for announcements.

I will continue to check the forums as well as the Facebook page.

Cheers,

Neil.

The Facebook App Page https://apps.facebook.com/boincstats/ has not posted anything to my Facebook timeline since March 11, 2015 regarding my BOINC Milestones. That was 3 months ago.

Is it Broken???

According to the app's Facebook page "The app can automatically post to your wall when you pass important milestones for projects. ..."

I have confirmed the app IS Authorized to post on my Facebook wall on my behalf.

Hi,

Thanks for the heads up. It turns out that Facebook recently deprecated a number of their API calls which the BOINCStats app relied upon, including the ability to post to user's walls offline. This has rendered the app useless and there is no workaround for this ability.

I have therefore had to drop support for the app. It will be deleted from Facebook by 30th June. Thank you to all those that have used the app and have suggested new features and reported bugs.

Note: the BOINC Stats web page will remain and now has a new URL: https://www.facebook.com/boinc.mundayweb

Cheers, Neil.
