I'm trying to geotarget wall posts to my fan page using the Facebook PHP SDK.
The following snippet successfully posts a message to my wall, but the geotargeting isn't taking.
I'm new to programming and I've done my best to follow the documentation here but it's pretty sparse -- I'm not confident that my syntax is correct.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
//compiling the geotargeting parameters
$geoTarget = "{'cities':'Richmond,VA','regions':'Virginia','countries':'US'}";
//my arguments
$args = array(
'access_token' => $page_access_token,
'message' => "this is my message",
'targeting' => $geoTarget
);
//posts the message
$facebook->api("/$page_id/feed","post",$args);
The field is privacy in the Post table
The description field may contain a comma-separated lists of valid country, city and language if a Page's post targeting by location/language is specified.
