I am creating an app that uses facebook location information when a user creates a status update with a location (check in). In order to do this with a test user I need to be able to create a fake page, but there seems to be a bug in facebook code where a test user cannot create a page. The City/State field is always shown as invalid even when I enter valid information. Is there any way to use test accounts to test status updates with location?

AFAIK, cities and states are represented as pages, too - so test users can not access any real ones of those either. – misorude Sep 24 '18 at 07:10

So how can I create a page with an address as a test user? – Ryan Langton Sep 24 '18 at 13:11

Dunno if that’s possible. Perhaps easier to test with a real user that has a role in the app. – misorude Sep 24 '18 at 13:16

You may be able to create a page for the test user using the graph api explorer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50586873/facebook-test-accounts-with-pages – stormwild Mar 03 '19 at 12:12
