Is it possible to upload a photo to fanpage album

问题:

Here on my fanpage I've added my small app, that makes it possible, that fans can upload photos to a special photo album of this fanpage.

It's possible, cuz I use a fanpage admin permission ("manage_pages, publish_stream and offline_access").

But now - everytime someone uses this app, I get a photo publish news feed on my fanpage. How can I add a photo to a fanpage WITHOUT publish it to the newsstream?

Actually my publish php code looks like:

<?php
  $post_data = array(
    'image' => ('@' . realpath($photo)),
    'message' => $msg)
  );

  $facebook->setAccessToken(_FANPAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN);
  $data = $facebook->api('/'. _ALBUM_ID . '/photos', 'post', $post_data);
?>

When I remove the "publish_stream" permission with my fanpage admin account - there will appear a 'funny' bug. The uploaded photo won't show up in the photo album and not in the news stream. But it is in the photo-strip where you see all new photos and when you click on it, it will be in a row with all those uploaded photos... it looks like, that it is somewhere in a 'hidden' photoalbum.

So does anyone have a clue, how to post photos over the graph api without publish it to the news stream?

Thanks in advance, Jurik

I got the solution! Nowhere in the docs is it mentioned - if you don't want post a feed when you upload a photo via Graph API set following parameter: no_story=1

This information was earlier here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/photo/

But somehow it disappeard from this doc. :(

source: Can I upload photos but not post to wall in Facebook?

How to contact FB so that they add this VERY important info?

You could delete the news feed stream post immediately after upload (if its not returned when you create it). If you call the graph api: https://graph.facebook.com/269434846409322/feed?access_token=... you can get a list of feed posts and then you could issue an HTTP DELETE to the item you want to delete, like https://graph.facebook.com/269434846409322_269690926383714.
