- - Integration with vBulletin - Facebook Connect - Allow your users to login with their Facebook account (for 3.8) (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=203064)

Guys, from what I read, it auto-creates a user on your board, lifts their profile pic, info and friends that are on your board and adds them as friends to their new account on your board.

Sick!

So their is an actual account on our board.
Does that include an email address, for mailers.?

yes same way i understod it.
Meaning each connecting user is = 1 more registrant/member on your vb.

just tryed adding myself on some of the boards in this post marked
as installed. worked like a charm, and i was in vb as lastest member.
so i guess it BOOSTs registrators..

just hope spambots dont have facebook accounts.

I love the part where it auto adds common friends to their account on registration... sick!

This mod is like magic... Its the David Copperfield of mods...

try this board if u have a facebook account..
its not mine,, just a random board with this mod installed found in the posts.
http://www.lifeattack.com

well after registration i am unable to edit/change my email.
so dont really know.. when i click to edit my mail i get some FB options
not normal email options.

what happens if a user from your board logs in with facebook when you install this... Is there an email issue when it encounters already that email is in use?

hmm allright after testing this on some other sites, ive decided to try and install
tomorrow to see how it works. just pisses me off that i cant change registration
info after registration with this, i wonder if normal vb signups can, or this apply to all.

Quote annoying if admin/mod is needed to change their accounts.

The problem is, that im not seeing anything >_< I did check 3 times if I did all the correct template edits, but nothing.. if you need a temp admin account, let me know.

There is a conflict with the Navbar Additions + ShareThis mod!

Do you have the Navbar Additions + ShareThis installed?

Looks like $fbconnect_init doesn't contain any data. Any clue why that happens?
If you like to take a look. I use ibProArcade 2.6.8+ - that's the latest version.

By the way:
I tested that with a coworker. My forum account already existed and I used Facebook Connect a few times with my account. My coworker doesn't had a forum account before and used Facebook Connect for creating a forum account. We are both listed as friends on Facebook.
On my forum I appeard in his friend list but he didn't appear in my list.
Was that just a random failure or is it a bug?

Thanks for your help - and again: best mod ever :)

I would suggest you replace:

Code:

<!-- fbconnect -->

$fbconnect_init 

<!-- / fbconnect -->

with

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

        var bburl = '$vboptions[bburl]';

//-->

</script>

<script src="http://static.ak.connect.facebook.com/js/api_lib/v0.4/FeatureLoader.js.php" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/fbconnect.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

        // Main Facebook Connect Javascript Initialization

        FB.init("$vboptions[fbconnect_apikey]", "$vboptions[fbconnect_xd_receiver]"); 

//-->

</script>

and yeah i think that friend thing was a bug... I'll fix it in the next release.

You decrease your new usersignups since almost everyone has a facebook account.

And I wanna store their database to contact now and then!

Or am I mistaking?

An actual account is created when someone logs in with facebook connect BUT it uses a proxy email address it's a @facebook.com email address and the user will not receive emails unless they allow it.

What I did was allow the user to set if they want to receive emails from your forum. Don't do the USERCP_SHELL & modifyprofile template edits if you want to allow the user to edit their email.
