Hi, I've tested the functionality from the 'guest' side of things and everything looks great....

However, the existing member sign in with facebook doesnt seem to be working. it asks you to make a nickname, and i click the 'existing user' link.... sign in to the board and then I'm logged in. however there doesnt appear to be any integration at all. I dont get asked about stories when making a new thread / reply.

Is it likely I have done something wrong, or is anyone else havingm this issue?

Can a person upgrade directly from 2.0.2 to 2.0.4? Or do I have to upgrade to 2.0.3 first? Thanks!

I upgraded... It seems like this product has a lot of potential that hasn't been relized. It also has some short comings. Here's my laundry list of what i'd like to see.

1. Option to logout of facebook connect and associate the facebook connect login with a current vbulletin login.

2. There are lots of data that facebook can pass. I'd like to see an option to map this data.

3. Proxied email addresses can be requested from yahoo. I'd like to see this included in the dafult product.

4. Would like to be able to pull a person's facebook ID and map it to that.

5. Options to post to group threads would be nice.

6. Pull profile images and images from the image gallery into vbulletin and import/export images from vbulletin to facebook.

I think it has this already, but i cant get it to work. i am pretty sure it is supposed to be able to allow an existing user with a facebook login to associate accounts.

I have more then one facebook account. There's no way to change what account the vb member is using. That could be problematic in the future. People may delete accounts on facbeook or start new ones they want to use for a variety of reasons.

ok. I think this is going to be a recurring request. Until this is sorted I will have to uninstall the application.

Currently, there is no way to associate EXISTING MEMBERS with a facebook account - according to the mod description on .org it seems as though it should be possible - but it's not.

Steps to reproduce:-
1. Logout
2. Sign in with facebook connect
3. Dont choose a nickname, instead click on the existing user
4. Login to your board
5. We can now assume the vb account is facebook connected - NO ITS NOT

Maybe this is only a bug / problem on my board.

Can anyone confirm or deny the above to be true for them?

@Uninstalled until resolved

I associated my account with the facebook using the features already in facebook connect. When you first used Facebook Connect you get an option to associate it with your current account.

It's worked for three of my members who used it, and new members get new accounts.

This isn't a "bug" other than it appears you created a new account rather than associating it with your current account when you first used it.

I tried it on a test server and it works good for me. I connected with facebook and selected existing username.

Upon posting a message for the first time, its asks if this is to be published onto facebook etc, and it works.

Also, upon getting a private message or reply to threads, they show up in my facebook notifications.

It will be going live next week so I will report back, but so far it all looks good. The only thing I see is missing is that users could do with some options to turn on/off the notifications.
