go to FB Connect Options -> News-Feed Templates and click on [ Create New Templates ]. After you create your new templates in your language, update the template ids in the FB Connect options.

Some people are asking about the Facebook proxy email that the user is registered with on the forum. Users will be able to receive emails if they allow this through the email settings that they can change during their first login or in the user cp.

I seem to be getting the following on the newfeed templates page .. is this gonna cause me any issues?

PHP5 btw

I'm having a strange problem which has been sort of covered already, however I've noticed something which I'm not too sure how to fix.

If I go to

http://www.mydomain.com

and log in using Facebook Connect, everything is fine.

However, if I go to

http://mydomain.com (ie, without the www) I get the following:

The Facebook Connect cross-domain receiver URL http://mydomain.com/xd_receiver.htm#...%220.168%22%7D must have the application's callback URL http://www.mydomain.com/xd_receiver.htm as a prefix. You can configure the callback URL in the application's settings.

ie - the mod works fine for 'www.mydomain.com' but if you access from 'mydomain.com' it doesn't work as the callback url is configured as 'www'mydomain.com'

I could only see one place in Facebook to enter the callback url, so how is this fixed?!

I mentioned this here - there is a link to a page in that post that will show you how to add rewrites to your htaccess file.

my host tells me I have no htaccess file in my directories. then what? :(

You should have one in your admincp/modcp folder for security.

Regardless you can create one yourself or go to your domain CP and password protect a dir. That will create the file. Or you can download my attachment. Unzip, edit it and ftp it to your rootdir.

thanks TriMe

No problem :)

The facebook documentation does suggest that you use the domain without the www. on as your callback address. In effect the www is a subdomain and to spam multiple subdomains you have to supply the root domain only

Anyone have any idea about this?

Silk... couple concerns... i think...

> what is the best method to keep our new Facebook registered users informed? Should we now just send a PM so they get notified on their Facebook
> I have users joining but not updating with actual email addresses...

Here is a request... can you AUTOMATICALLY make them join a FACEBOOK group or PAGE? upon registration??

Yeah I think a PM would be the best way to go. Unfortunately there is no way for the users to automatically join a group or a page.

As Facebook users don't have a password how can I make so these users if made into moderator they can login to the mod panel with facebook connect?

I don't know if its a good idea for moderators to be facebook users. The best thing to do now is to set the moderator passwords and tell them to login through the vbulletin login.

I upgraded to 1.1.3 and now i am unable to see any notifications for posts or private msgs... any clues as to what i shud look for?

these were working in 1.1.2... and i did the overwrite option when i upgraded

Same here, and I'm getting JS errors in IE7. JS seems to work in Firefox, but I have a YouTube video on the homepage that doesn't play in IE7- but does in Firefox, and I suspect this hack is the reason. There is also a pagepeel ad in JS that works in Firefox, but not in IE7.

Please help, getting the following error in options -> news feed templates:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/nbb/public_html/includes/facebook/facebook.php on line 38

and the following at top of the screen:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/nbb/public_html/includes/functions.php(5597) : eval()'d code on line 9

I am using PHP 5 so it's not that... Help!

Well the thing is our forum hasn't gone live yet. We are a facebook application that has finally had enough of facebook refusing to fix some serious bugs and lack of simple features (You make someone a mod on Facebook forums and they suddenly lose their ability to delete their own posts without a validation error, let alone deleting other peoples posts)

The facebook users we have are all experienced and trustworthy.

Anyway what changes do I need to make to enable them to set a password in the same way that you can set a password still when someone registers normally and then links it to a facebook account

Anyone able to help me??

how can i get "Facebook Application API Key" and "Facebook Application Secret"

You get them when you register the application at www.facebook.com/developers

does this add-on work with vb version 3.6.8?...please say yes

yea this one solve. but no login box appear.

no offence but you shud read thru the threads... if you didn't even register the application then you didn't read thru the threads... cuz i do remember that problem popping up b4...

mind you.. i am guilty of doing that sometimes too ;)

I'm about to add this to one of my forums, but sitting back and watching this thread for right now

Ok, I've installed it at www.uttertalk.com and no errors as yet...I'm running 3.6.8 and I kinda hopes this works because I don't fancy a new licence, at this time of year

Anyone got a clue what might be causing a problem on my install but not others? My PHP version is 5.2.4

Can someone help me test?

I have a quick question about this attachment

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/12/46.jpg

is this something we'll host on our server? and can we customize this block?

thanks again, looking great!

I wish I would have done what you say :(

You can't customize that login... its generated from Facebook...

this is probably happening because you need to install the latest version of flash. It may not look like it, but facebook connect uses flash.

hmmm double check all your server settings.... what does your phpinfo() say?

change your callback url to http://uttertalk.com/

Ah, I've had a look and it's actually 4.4.8

My host's software says it's 5.2.4, guess they've been lying to me! Will have to raise this with them.

Thanks

Turns out that my host has both versions installed. For those who have the same problem, they just need to create a .htaccess file with the following line:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php

Works a treat, thanks for the app.:D
