How to disable sandbox mode in new facebook app developer?

Tags:

Question 1:

Is this the correct way to to disable sandbox mode in the new facebook app developer dashboard?

a) Go to the "Status & Review" section.

b) Select "Yes" after the text "Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public?"


Question 2:

I created my fb app so that I can cross-post blog entries from my WordPress blog to my facebook wall.

If I click "Yes" after "Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public?" will the general public will be able to use my app to post to my facebook account? (Fyi I don't want this to happen.)


Question 3:

Is it possible to disable Sandbox mode without having to fill out privacy policy info? I want to be able to use my app - but don't want the app to be searchable in the facebook app center or used by others.


Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

  2. Select your app from top navigation bar (Apps)
  3. Click on Status & Review (Left Sidebar)
