Facebook Open Graph not showing on timeline

I'm using FB Open Graph in my application. It's not fully working. When I post a object it appears in the user's recent activity; however, it doesn't appear on their timeline. The metadata has no errors and I'm using the FBGraph gem but it also doesn't work when I do it using curl. Any advise to fix this?
