1. You need a Facebook user account
2. Go at https://developers.facebook.com/
3. Click on “Apps” and “Add a New App”
4. Choose “Website”
5. Enter a name for your Facebook app (you may choose a name that refers to your platform, like “Apps Maker Company”). This name will be shown to the app users when they would want to create an account in the mobile app through Facebook connect. Then click on “Create New Facebook App ID”.
6. Choose “Communication” for the app category, and click on “Create App ID”
7. In the upper right corner, click on the button “Skip Quick Start”
8. From the left menu, click on Settings
9. In the App Domains field, let it blank.
10. Click on +Add Platform and choose “Website”
11. In the Site URL field enter the address of your platform (aka your Siberian) and this time with “http://”, and “www.” if your platform is on your main domain. If it’s on a subdomain, enter your subdomain like http://apps.mydomain.com. Enter also the URL to your domain name, and http://*.yourdomain.com (if your Siberian is at siberian.domain.com enter http://*.domain.com”. Then save.
