- - Integration with vBulletin - Facebook Connect - Allow your users to login with their Facebook account (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=198499)

Is it not possible to allow wall posting without the user being logged into facebook? Particularly what I'm talking about is an existing user that links there account but at a later date logs into the forum without using fbconnect or a fbconnect user that logs out of facebook while still on the forum... In that case it seems stories are not posted to the wall.

At first I thought maybe it's a function of face book api, but I just tried out Netflixs new face book app and it posts movie ratings without having to reconnect through facebook connect.

I apologize if this has been talked about before, but finding this info would be a pain in 80+ pages.

Other than that I've installed this and believe I've tested every feature possible in every way and have had ZERO problems!

i have problem when [textdirection] in language setting is rtl not work but when i change it to ltr work perfect ?

I'm thinking about this idea, post your reply/ quick reply/ or new thread to your facebook as well, not sure could this be done by the facebook connect?

anyone know how i can fix this?

When I go to create an application at Facebook, it's not clear where the Callback URL is supposed to go. If I go to "edit settings" there are many types of Callback URLs all over the place, under multiple tabs.

I've tried to scan all 50+ pages of this thread, but all I hear is "what's your Callback URL set to?" or "set it in the application settings".

Do I set it everywhere the word "Callback URL is set"? Like for Post Authorize Callback URL and Post Remove Callback URL, Information Update Callback URL, Publish Callback URL, etc?
:confused:

I am suddenly getting this error:

Code:

Application response error

Invalid template bundle id specified: 12244885550. You can see this because you are one of the developers of the app.

The odd thing, I don't recognize that number from anywhere, it isn't my application ID

is the posting error fixed? before i got the error about not enough characters in a post

Any anwser from the coder?

Hi Sllik - this sounds like a great plugin. How would it work (if at all) for membership forums where members have to pay for a registration? Is there some way to turn off the automatic registration and just keep the feed notifications etc for existing users? Or maybe the answer is to put new FB users into a group which has same rights as an 'expired' member.

So.... this mod works perfectly for what it does. I can signup as a new user, all my posts/replies get put on my facebook. I really like it. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time integrating some other things that FB suggests in http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/...od_Connect_App.

I've tried to implement the status by changing the onDOMReady function to

Code:

if(FB.Connect.get_status().result == 1) //If you're connected

                {

                        elements[i].innerHTML = '<a href="#" onclick="facebook_requestSession(); return false;"><img id="fb_login_image" src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/fbconnect/login-buttons/connect_light_medium_long.gif" border="0" alt="Connect"/></a>';

                }

                else

                {

                        elements[i].innerHTML = '<img id="fb_login_image" src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/fbconnect/login-buttons/connect_light_small_short.gif" border="0" alt="Connect"/><span style="padding-bottom: 3px">You are Connected to Facebook</a>';

                }

Unfortunately, with this, I'm having trouble making sure users who are connected to their facebook accounts also get logged in there, when the log in, normally.

Facebook profile URL option isnot working in my forum.. Could anyone help me with it..

i think this mod has to be updated. facebook changed the api key i think.

http://forum.developers.facebook.com...c.php?pid=5594

getting this in feeds now:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'FacebookRestClientException' with message 'Session key invalid or no longer valid'

wait for next update..

I need this mod like crazy... :D

When a new user signs up, the mapped fields do not seem to get populated for me. Am I misunderstanding how it should work? Do the fields just display, or is the data physically copied into my vBulletin database?

I really would like to make the data copy into the vBulletin database as I have some compulsory fields which need to be filled in before a user can post (for example, the user must supply their real name). These fields can all be mapped from Facebook, and this would make the experience far more seamless.

Hello -

Does anyone know of 3-5 websites that have the V-Bulletin / Facebook Connect integration.
I just need to see some websites that have FBC working properly with VBulletin.

Thank you!

Marlon Lawson:)

I wonder if I could turn off vBulletin registration, and have people login using fconnect only.

I have installed and tested this and everything seems to work okay. The only thing that really bothers me is the fact users who use this to create an account to access my forum do not have to agree to my forum rules. This is huge for me and prevents me from enabling this mod. Any chance that in a future update the forum rules are displayed (as per the normal registration process) and must be agreed to before the users gets to the page to choose a login name?

Resever for future install...many thanks

Does it copy the email address correctly, because I installed this mod before and it didn't copy the email address correctly. Maybe the latest release has this fixed. Has it?

Waiting the Devloper to fix the errors in this product .

Perhaps OP could update first post with a list of incompatible mods?
I think I saw somewhere that this mod does not compatible with some other mods.

I need to know this prior installing.

this mod is not working on mine.

can some one help me fix it. i am ready to pay a small fee as the author does not install anymore. all the files have been uploaded, template edits done.

thanks!

Can you ban Facebook Connect users from your VBulletin site the same way that you do users who go thru the normal registration process?

Thanks! :D

Does anyone know if you can use the VBulletin "banning" feature on Facebook Connect users? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

This must be a really stupid question as I'm the first to ask it:( Where specifically should I upload the contents of the "upload" file?

"Step#2 - Upload the nessesary files."

I would love to pay the developer to set it up for me, but it seems he has gone M.I.A

Can you ban Facebook Connect users from your website if they create spam? I have been trying to get an answer for this. Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

no one wants to install even for a price ? :(?

This is a fantastic mod that opens up a host of opportunities for vBulletin communities, however after brutally testing it over the last 24 hours, I have major issues with its neat compatibility with vBulletin. If anyone can help or discuss these I'd be grateful. These are:

1) Changes to Facebook or vBulletin in the future may render this mod incompatible, relying then on support from the developer to bring this mod back in line; if hundreds of administrators are relying on support from a sole developer who decides they are no longer bothered to upgrade for future facebook/vBulletin releases, this will have huge implications for incorrect login functions for potentially millions of registered members across the vBulletin communities.

2) Facebook holds registration details of members, eg. email addresses and passwords. If this mod was ever ditched, I could in theory have thousands of members unable to log in to my forum unless each account was manually altered in admincp. Registered members are unable to do this themselves as changes to email addys or passwords would not be possible as vBulletin would not recognise their original/old details. A logistical nightmare for administrators of large vB communities.

3) It appears that facebook Connect users cannot be contacted via mass email or mass PM add-ons as such users are not found within the database. This effectively renders the use of these important functions useless in the long-term. Especially important should the need arise above where they must take action to continue to log in to the messageboard.

4) I would like to see fblogin.php altered to accept Connect for exisiting vBulletin members only, or tweaked to go via a vB registration process where an vB email address and password can be added. The problems 1-3 above wouldn't exist if this was an alternative installation.

Apart from those important issues the mod is perfect!

Are you able to ban Facebook Connect users from your site if they spam it?

How can I promote this on facebook now?

Oh, yes please! Glad you pointed out number 1 and 2 there mister, didn't think of those :p
Think I'll uninstall, but with extra e-mail/pw for vBulletin I'll reinstall in a second.

I get this every single damned time I reply to or post a new thread. :/
http://www.grabup.com/uploads/2e26eb...b7acfadba3.jpg

It only started to happen when I upgraded to 2.05. Before it would just remember to publish each post, now it's just annoying. :/

Help appreciated.

Seems your question is being ignored.

I actually am getting a very strange error in FireBug:

Permission denied to call method Location.toString
http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/...ect.js.pkg.php
Line 556

I have attached the screen shot as well...

In the upper right hand screen of firebug is this url:
http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/...ect.js.pkg.php

So what the heck is this?

It works...!!

Thx for great hack...

I went through all the instructions (including the optional steps), but I don't see where my users are supposed to link their fb account to their forum account?
