I've been looking at some examples on how to use facebook in your games, however most of the sample is on how to post score to your wall and I was looking for how to display my wall posts.
I'm pretty new at this so I took the tabBar sample and made a new module that would show my wall posts in one of the tabs.
I'm not sure on how to proceed further, I started out with a webView but that showed my entire profile and that was not what I had in mind. So I was thinking if I could add my wall post to a widget scrollView?
I thought this would be a fun thing to share with my friends since I don't have a website or a blog so they could get my app instead.
After reading about FB graphs, that honestly didn't make no sense to me. I did figured out I need to create an appID etc and so I did. FB uses json so I required that since it's built into corona.
So now I have my appID, appSecret and a nameSpace. But what is an accessToken?
"https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed?access_token=" Should I put my appID here?
I would be very thankful if anyone could help me out with this..

Also, another question.
Do I really need to make the user login to their FB account just to look at my wall? I understand they have to if they want to comment or like but since my profile is public then they shouldn't need to login right?
So I would basically just add a login button to the toolBar to take care of that.
