hi
i just finish my game and run it on xcode
it work wonderfull ... i am happy really thanks ejecta team ....

i just want to add externel link (share score on facebook or twitter) using externel link

i know that this is code to add ejecta.openURL( url, title )

but where i have to put it ???

iam using construct 2 ejecta plugin ... there are option (action) to open url ...

when i run my app on xcode (or on my phone) and i try to touch the button to externel link ... it show me the message (open browser) bt nothing happpen when i tick ok ...

thanks in advance

Had this problem, so I made this plugin:

https://github.com/stillenklipse/EjectaCheckUrl

In the example I check for the FB app, then if it is installed, it opens Facebook app to your games fan page. You can use this same idea to go to actual web pages or check for other apps installed.

ok thanks i will try it later
what about twitter ?

http://handleopenurl.com

Thats a list of the common URLs for iPhone apps. You can use any of the URLs with the pluggin. Twitter has a similar URL pattern for pages.

http://handleopenurl.com/scheme/twitter

thanks for reply
but excuse me i dont understand where i put this code
if( window.ejecta ){
var OpenUrl = new Ejecta.OpenUrl('fb:');
if(OpenUrl.isUrlSafeToOpen() == "true"){
OpenUrl.openPassedUrl();
}
}else{
console.log('facebook not installed')};
}
???

I would assume, you would want this code to be used as the action of a button. I am using it as the action for my games FB button.

If the user touches the FB button, the action is almost that exact code. I just instead off doing the console.log I open safari, since that is on every iphone.

hi
thanks for reply
maybe we dont use same methods to work
i use construct 2 to make game and after i export to ejecta ...
this why i dont know where to put it ...

The JS code above will not work in construct, but it is simple JS so it can be adjusted to work. I'm not 100% familiar with the construct set up. I could help you out if you want to share the game code somewhere, not publicly.

thanks for reply
i will do it as soon as possible
