Hi, Andrew,
I've been studying the Facebook Developers' Documentation for most of the
weekend. I have also been doing a lot of researching and testing. I have
been able to create a test Facebook Application ("App"), and obtain the App
ID, App Secret, and an App access token. I have also figured out that the
Facebook "Graph" is just the FB database. =) That metaphor had me confused
for a while because I was looking around for an actual graph. Yes, I can be
literal minded, especially when I need a procedure to complete a task, and
am feeling tense and vulnerable about not having completed it.
>>> So depending on your requirements, you can use the Social Graph to post
to your facebook page, that will automatically get seen by people who have
either liked / subscribed to the page.
Actually, I need to achieve the reverse; I need to post the activity feed,
or the status updates of a particular Facebook page to a particular web
site. The ColdFusion Facebook SDK seems to want to allow me to post posts to
a Facebook page, but does not allow me to extract the activity feed -- at
least, that is what I think. Of course I could be missing something.
>>> The thing is that you need to know how to do it.
I agree 100% and I'm continuing to work on this task. I'm continuing to
study the Facebook documentation. Thank you again for your ideas and
support. Have a great evening.
Eric

This SDK can, as it uses the same methods as the API's covered. The thing is
that you need to know how to do it.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/
Shows everything that you can do, what you can get back how to post etc.
You then use this SDK to then make that connection and take care of any
results that may or may not come back.
So depending on your requirements, you can use the Social Graph to post to
your facebook page, that will automatically get seen by people who have
either liked / subscribed to the page.
If what you are saying is what you need then you will need to look at
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/post/ and then use the
SDK to achieve this for you.
