Hello,

Has anyone got ideas of how to do it? Because when you register your app on Facebook, you need to specify the URL of your app, so how to point to my dev server (which is running on my machine?).

Has anyone done it before?

Cheers.

Facebook API needs to send the reply to a link in your server. In order to do this in a local machine you need to use a service as dyndns.com or just use your IP address (if this is static). So you could create something like this:

http://you.ip:8080/script

In your router open port 8080 (for example) and point it to your computer. This way incoming connections to that port will be redirected to your server. I hope it's simple & clear, my English is bad..
