For those of you not getting notifications at all, I realized you have to be logged into Facebook in Safari. I tested it in Chrome and Firefox, but the only way I get notifications to show up is if I’ve logged into Facebook in Safari. Yet another way Apple forces us to use their applications. Hope this helps.

I’m using ‘Glow for FB’ for some weeks now,
works way better than the Mountain Lion notifications.

hmmmm….. I just tried this as per instructions…. because I have facebook set up to notify me of device log ins… I get a security txt message with a number sent to my phone…. there doesn’t seem to be any way to enter this? So I can’t complete this as per your description….

Is there a way to change the font color for posting to facebook/twitter in Mountain Lion’s notification center? I have dark wallpaper and the font is black so I can’t see what I’m typing.

(and no, I really don’t want to change my wallpaper just for this small feature)

“configure alert styles, the amount of items shown, and the type of Notifications to receive. You can also determine whether or not the status updater appears in Notification Center.”

No, you can’t select the type of notifications to receive. Maybe with the Facebook developer preview you can, but with the official 10.8.2 release, it is not possible.

Also, a lot of users are reporting that notifications often simply does not appears, even for new private messages in Facebook. For me it worked for few notifications, since then I don’t receive notifications for new PM.

Thats how it’s supposed to work, it’s a shame it doesn’t for me and the hundreds of people posting on the apple community site. We can post to FB but aren’t getting any notifications at all.

A little frustrating, if I’m using it correctly. Am I right that I can’t post a message to a single, specific facebook user, i.e., only to myself or to groups of users?

Easy enough, though not sure why I’d really use this.
