user.loggedIn variable.Running
FBLY.action("addCustomProperty", "loggedIn", "true") will tell the widget that the user is logged in. If the widget triggering settings has that property set, the survey will then trigger (if no other restrictions are set)Removing a single custom triggering property
When you want to prevent further surveys from displaying because of a custom property
