Facebook Syndication Improvements - Adding To Facebook Just Two Clicks Away!

We are very excited with our latest platform update which made significant improvements to our syndication support.  This release improved the "Copy to Facebook" workflow considerably. Adding a widget to your Facebook profile is now only two clicks away. We also included an  "Add to profile" button to allow you to add the widget to your profile page or your boxes tab in just one step. 

With this release, we have also have made it possible for users to access the syndication panel for smaller widgets (badges), regardless of their copy destination.

We also have made the subject line in the Send To A Friend syndication option editable.
 
In addition to these significant improvements, we've also made the following changes/fixes to the platform:

  • Copying widgets to Live.com has been restored. However, we are still investigating an issue with posting a widget to the Live.com Gallery.
  • We have increased the character limits to 128 characters for the title field that can be found within our Content Management System (CMS) available via the dashboard.  We also added error messaging for exceeding the character limit.

As always, your feedback is always welcome

It sounds very nice!

But when I try to copy my RSS Container Widget to Facebook via the "Copy Me" button everything seems to install okay. But when I go to my profile I don't see any Widget. In my applications menu I also don't see the Yourminis application... Is it because of the "New" Facebook?

Hello,
I've been sent a message here cause I want to know if my yourminis account was looking to facebook or to the other sites or even more to other websites!. thank you so much.

Nice feat, but at least the Countdown widget I am using only works in "Boxes", not on the Wall/Profile pages. Instead, there it displays:
No content to display.
This box will not be visible...until this application adds content to it.
This sounds rather peculiar to me - any reasons known (this is the widget I'm using: http://www.yourminis.com/details_mini.aspx?uri=yourminis/yourminis/mini:countdown&ac=1
