@parthkharecha It seems that Facebook does not support it without the SDK. more info.

Why not add this to the readme? I hardly think this belongs here.

Some might help to test them and post their feedback here

MurhafSousli avatar Mar 31 '18 05:03 MurhafSousli

That's fine, but how about also having this in the readme? This is valuable info!

will have it there with the next update

Hi, if there is app installed, sharing should open the app and if there is no app installed, it should open the web browser. For eg: if whatsapp application is installed, clicking on share button should open the app directly and if there is no app installed it should open https://web.whatsapp.com/. In my case, Sharing on whatsapp or facebook through my website opens the website only. What should I do?

I want to open the link in Facebook app but not in the browser when I click the link on mobile, is there any feasible solution to implement this?

I think it's better to change the protocol to call a deep link of FB instead: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22335921

@trunghieulam That is a link to a page, it is not a sharer URL, you can override the sharer URL of FB using the global options, this way you can test if it works or not, then let me know if it is better.
