First step is to create a folder on your webserver for the Facebook application. For this example, name the folder "facebook"

In the facebook folder create a subfolder named "facebook_sdk"

Download the Facebook PHP SDK from GitHub, unzip the files and upload the files to the "facebook_sdk" folder on your server.

The Facebook SDK files can be downloaded from here

The script is divided into three parts:

Configuration where you insert your Facebook SDK information, and configeres which content to post on Facebook

Facebook authentication and posting if a valid access token is avalilable

Facebook authentication token download if no valid token is available (and then the script proceeds to step 2)
