Facebook sharer.php is not working any more

[nedzadk]

Hi, wondering if anyone else noticed this?
I have also found this info on stackoverflow.

Hey! Has someone figured out what really is the current status of sharer.php? Should something be done regarding this? Thanks.

When I search the official documentation I can't find information on sharer.php. I found this instead https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/share-dialog

Basically use Javascript SDK for JS and then

FB.ui({
  method: 'share',
  href: 'https://developers.facebook.com/docs/',
}, function(response){});

It was moved to
https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php

please change your FB.sharer in this lib

Is there a status update for this issue?

sharer.php +should+ still work. But it's use is deprecated by FB. As aslamhadi had stated above. This still works on some of my installations but it would be safer to move to using the share-dialog.

@AlphaDork are you suggesting a new component (replacement for this one) that resolves this issue?
