The Facebook Admin requires that you enter the Facebook user Id
of the designated administrators for that page within the Open Graph.
Finding the Facebook user Id of a person even yourself can be a little challenging,
but once you know where to look it's very simple.
Facebook gives users the ability to select a unique user name or 'vanity URL'
for their member profile. Effectively,
this will convert the original URL to a member profile from
www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=12345678 to www.facebook.com/babar.ali
The process to find a user id's differs depending on whether or not the user has selected a username.
Users Without a Username These users are simple. All you need to do is find a link to their profile page, copy the URL of the link and save the long number specified by profile.php?id=12345678.
You can then take this number and paste it into the Facebook Admin IDs setting.
Users With a Username Facebook hides the Id of these users, and there are all sorts of crazy ways documented on the Internet describing ways to find their user ID, but there is only one proper method.
To find the user ID of a named user, you must query
the Open Graph.
Every object within the Open Graph has a unique URL that can be inspected and will return information about that object.
Users are no exception.
The URL to a named user is http://graph.facebook .com/username, and will return information about that user:
{ "id": "12345678", "name": "user name",
"first_name": "user", "last_name": "name", "link": " http://www.faceb ook.com /username",
"username": "username", "gender": "male", "locale": "en_GB" }
The user ID is specified in the id property.
Simply copy this value without the quotation marks and paste it into the Facebook Admin IDs setting in XenForo.
Facebook User ID Finder To make this process even easier,
here's a form you can submit to get that information without even having to paste the URL into your browser
Go to find my facebook id
and enter username into input box and click go
in next page you will see id of profile link that you
enter in my face book id finder....
