PHP Facebook API - post message to the wall with a link to an user?

I know I cannot post through Facebook API messages to the user's wall with the links which go out of Facebook.

But can I post a message, where would be a link to a Facebook user? So far I didn't find something like that, so trying my luck here.

You surely can, using the feed api

If the user have given you the permission to publish , you can post any link on his wall.

Using the /me/feed endpoint you can post to the user's wall, nothing prevents it.

You will need publish_stream permission.

if ($user) {
        $attachment = array(
            'message' => 'this is my message',
            'link' => 'http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=xxxx',

        );

        try {
            // Proceed knowing you have a user who is logged in and authenticated
            $result = $facebook->api('/me/feed/','post',$attachment);
        } catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
            error_log($e);
            $user = null;
        }
    }
}
