When they sign up with FBConnect, they are given the option to use their existing vB account. If they don't do that, they'll end up just creating a new account.


Yes, merging accounts any other way will not work the way you want it to.


Emails are sent through the application to the email registered in their FaceBook account.

What do you mean? Emails must be ported from the facebook to the vbdatabase.

Getting the following error message after the login through facebook connect:

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.0:

Invalid SQL:
INSERT INTO userfield
(userid)
VALUES
(6616);

MySQL Error : Duplicate entry '6616' for key 1
Error Number : 1062
Script : http://www.example.com/vbulletin/fblogin.php
Referrer : http://www.example.com/vbulletin/fblogin.php
Username : example
Classname : vB_Database

Just wondering if there is any update on this :)

Are you absolutely certain you're using PHP 5? Because I had the same error and it was sorted as soon as I upgraded from 4 to 5. You've double checked by checking in your admin CP under maintenance > view PHP info?

i fixed all errors.. GOD knows how i did it.. i even dont understand html much :)
but SCROLLING is still there.

The address in the database is a valid email address thats unique to that user. When the application sends an email to that address it goes to Facebooks mail server and is forwarded to whatever address the user has on file at facebook

Did you install, then uninstall the mod?

Had the pro install down by Silik and so far so good... (marked as installed)

Only a couple issues, those Facebook users that sign up for a new VB account do not show up in the memberlist, nor in the admin control panel when I search for them...

This is awesome. However will this auto-register a user to your forums as well and populate information for easy registration? That way if the user decides to leave facebook they can still login normally?

Only other think I can think of is you have a block of javascript in a place vB or your skin is reacting poorly to it. Oh, you got one CSS error, but I don't think that's the problem. You can try it anyway. It's just a parse error.

In your Additional CSS Definitions, remove the last comma:
Good job correcting those errors though. That will help you in the long run.

Where can you change this image? Thanks for the awesome modificiation by the way.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

You have to change the path to the image to image you want. The path is in the code you added to that template.

Is it? The only image path in there is the "loading" image. In all the code I had to change there was nothing linking to the above icon so I'm guessing it's in another PHP/XML or whatever file.

Looks like he moved it from the image path to a CSS class. I don't quite see where it's at at the moment.

All right, I'm sure the coder will give us an update when he comes online. Thanks though!

If they leave facebook then the only way they can access their account is by emailing the admin requesting their username/password.

hmm thats wierd... I'll check on that!

To change the image you have to change the path in clientscript/fbconnect.js

Another issue:

Whenever I click Submit new reply or thread my browser doesn't do anything. My fellow administrator does not encounter this problem and nor do the members. There is just no action when clicking the button.

What could be the cause of this?

Edit thanks for the image locaiton.

Hi Friends,
I want to try this but i would like to know does it works with 3.8.0???

Thanks

double check your template edits especially newthread & newreply

Works great!

Indeed, I did leave something out during the copy&paste. Sorry for the bother.

i corrected the problem.

scrolling driving me crazy!
the mod isnt working and this is happend only when plugin is enabled.

Double check the template edits you made during install and make sure their in the right places.

Thanks for this. Installed. Works great :)

anyone figure out a way to put it on another VB page other than forumhome (register.php where the rules are before they register) just so they have one more chance to click the facebook button before they register?

does this work on 3.8?

sidepoint: they need to invent a way to allow us to search for terms like '3.8'!!

Won't you update this add-on so that template changes can be turned on/off via the admin panel rather than having to manually paste them scattered on different templates?

Thanks for the awesome add-on BTW.

Thanks for the addon.

When a story is posted to a users facebook page, it links them to the forum it's in rather than the thread itself. Not sure if this is an error or if it's meant to be this way. If anyone knows a way to link to the thread please say.

Hello,

I'd like to install this on my VB3.8 site which uses the excellent Template Modification System (TMS 1.1.5) mod.

Have anyone done the template edits with TMS? If so please can I have a copy of the rules :)

Im using MySQL 4.1.20-log will it still work?


Thanks

VJ

i found the scrolling problem.

ONLY when i remove:

<!-- fbconnect -->
$fbconnect_init
<!-- / fbconnect -->

from the footer, the scrolling is gone..
but then the script give me continues loading image.

the question is whats common between Lang Hebrew2 and footer?
Jedi, i thought about something.. where is another place besides footer that i can place it to work ?

requirements are php5 / mysql5

try :)

Hi,

Connection with facebook works great:D, but i cant publish a "New Thread" or "Quick Replay". :eek:

If i try to write a new post, it is like if the post is without text (The message you have entered is too short...).
If i try to write a quick replay i publish the message "Please click one of the Quick Reply icons in the posts above to activate Quick Reply."

I have installed another products, but i "disable" all of them to the test.

If i use a template no edited, all works perfect (except facebook connection, of course)

Anyone with the same problem? any idea? :confused: (if you need more info just tell me)

Thanks and greatings from spain.

I seem to have an error that has gone un-noticed on this thread.

When I click the button, its just linked to # and it doesn't do anything.
How do I solve?

make sure you callback url and your forum url are the same. Also setup the base domain setting under the facebook application settings (under the connect tab). Whats your forum url?

make sure your template edits are correct! especially newthread, SHOWTHREAD & newreply

Another suggestion for you Silik. I have a private moderator's forum that still publishes/offers to publish the contents of a new thread or reply onto my wall. I know I could easily deny the activity to be published, but would be great in the future to exclude certain forums' activities from having news feeds published.

Any news on the new registrations not showing up on the memberlist or being searchable in the admin cp? Again, great work.

Cheers, Stuart

Fantastic Work with this sllik!

Nominated.

I installed this mod and it works well on the first try. Good job! A couple of questions...

I have the same issue. I logged in with my account with no Facebook picture. I then had friend test the login and his avatar came up. He then changed his avatar. Then, I noticed in posts that I had his old avatar associated with my posts. This is a bug.

Yes, I'd like to exclude certain forums. I don't want threads that I post in the admin area being sent over to Facebook.
