Publishing Help Requests to Live Social Stream

The Live Social Stream on Zynga.com will allow players to join in on rewards that other players post, and also allows players to lend their help to others, without leaving their game! Each game that supports the Live Social Stream (currently CastleVille, CityVille, and Hidden Chronicles) has its own Live Social Stream, only accessible while playing that particular game.

If you don't see your Help Requests appearing on the Live Social Stream, there are a couple of things you check to try to resolve this.

If the "Post to Friends"-type button does not turn grey, then the problem is with the Game's permission. We're aware of this, and investigating a long term fix. However we do have some steps that you can try as a short-term fix for this particular problem, if you are experiencing it.
 
   1) Return to facebook.com
Facebook.com Main Bar

   2) Click on the ‘Account Settings’ option
Selecting Account Settings

   3) Click on “Apps”
Selecting Apps settings

   4) Locate the section for the App you are having problem with, and click “Remove”
Selecting Remove

   5) Click “Remove” when prompted
Confirming Removal

   6) Return to Zynga.com and the game you temporarily removed, and click the “Get Started” button
Getting Started

   7) Allow the Request for Permission when prompted by the game
Allowing all permissions

   8) You should now see your feeds being published to the Live Social Stream!
 .
If the "Post to Friends"-type button turns grey, but you still don't see your request in the Live Social Stream, then the problem may be with your Privacy Settings. You can check these by doing the following:

   1) Click the Menu button in the Right Rail, and select "my Profile"

Thanks for your patience while we work on making Zynga.com the best experience possible!
