Well, I am a non-Facebook developer, and a normal .NET programmer who have created a Facebook application for a regular website around one year ago using FBML. I have no time to read the roadmap every day and k开发者_StackOverflownow what will be next. So I had no idea about OAuth and HTTPS till yesterday.
All of a sudden I received an email yesterday saying (27 Sep) upgrade to OAuth 2.0 and HTTPS, otherwise the application will be disabled from 1st Oct.
Now, I read about OAuth 2.0 the whole day yesterday, and think I can get around it now chaining things, but I found that the site which currently host my Facebook application doesn't have SSL (HTTPS support) or dedicated IP address and I found that I need to invest around 20$ to get SSL and another $20 for a dedicated IP address. I am ready to pay for it, but as you know a response from hosting are not that quick.
Now I have emailed my hosting to make arrangement for it, but sadly they have not responded yet, and I now only have one day left (I don't know they will respond or not).
So how can I save my application? I don't have any server that support HTTPS for now. Even if I get some free SSL I am not able to implement it as I don't have a dedicated IP address.
Is there some way I can put a "will be back soon" kind of message. Or how can I save the application now?
I think I need to update that HTTPS canvas page in the setting anyhow.
FBML applications are not required to migrate and support HTTPS and signed requests.

Also, be aware that Facebook will stop supporting FBML apps at the end of the year.
