Works great I had some issues becasue I am using CMPS so all I did was creat redirects to the necessary files.

My only wish is there a way for current members to use this I don't want them to make new accounts to connect .. does anyone have any ideas???

can you explain what you did exactly, I use CMPS as well.

merge user ?

Any idea on that? After choose a nickname and go to the next process it shows that message.

I'd give it a go if:

1. There was a way for an existing user to associate their Facebook credentials with their forum account.

2. There was a way for a Facebook user to login first with their Facebook credentials but also be able to login using a normal vb user/pass should they choose to do so in the future.

For the first one, you should be able to simply merge the users.

Easier said than done.. I have over 7,000 registered users. It'd be a nightmare to handle that manually.

I second the existing user issue. Without it it's a nogo for me.

I question whether *all* of my users would want their accounts merged. Though it may be a pain, I for one think this is still a very powerful tool for getting new members.

The Facebook Connect cross-domain receiver URL http://www.loveukmusic.com/forum/xd_...%220.987%22%7D must have the application's callback URL http://www.loveukmusic.co.uk/forum as a prefix. You can configure the callback URL in the application's settings.

sawsomeone else had a problem but what am i doing wrong?

I did. slik then posted an upgrade which still didnt work....I also am having trouble logging into my forum at all now. thankfully I dont have many members but I'm still bummed about it.

do yourself a favor..FOLLOW STEP 0. backup backup backup before u install this

wow. i seem to have sorted it... just set it as www.loveukmusic.com/forum/xd_receiver.htm

add the "xd_receiver.htm" on the end

BUT now i have another problem! aparently its an applcation! how do i get to the aplication and add it to my page and give it to others to add??? i dont understand all this

on facebook?

What I did was create php files to redirects to the right directory or doamin for example the fblogin.php I creatred a fblogin.php file in the root directory where my CMPS in since its in a different domain and within this I added

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://forums.mydomain.com/fblogin.php" />

same for all the needed links in my CMPS.

nope you kno where it says callbk to your forum route or whatever. you do that but on the end of it . add xd_receiver.htm

Hi, what was the issue with CMPS? I want to include a fix in the next release?

A lot of people want this options, so I'm gonna include it in my next release (maybe today).
Thanks!

what's your forum's url?

Great stuff! I haven't been able to test this on all browsers. Can someone confirm if it works fine on IE 6,7 and FF 2,3?

my application on facebook isnt working.. but it must be because people can log in on my board. i dont understand

There are problems with IE6 and VBSEO that I'm trying to fix. If someone would be able to setup a test forum with VBSEO and give me admin access it would be great!

what? what?

<a href="https://apps.facebook.com/iloveukmusic/" target="_blank">http://apps.facebook.com/iloveukmusic/</a>

this is the app page i made for this hack.

but shouldnt people be able to join the app.. like add the app to there page?? poeple are getting a blank screen?

oooh, thats already facebook application development, check out
http://developers.facebook.com/

for more info...

Blank page

so should i be getting this blank page or?

yeah that's fine.

but no1 can add the add to there page...

app*

DJ, are you trying to build your own app or use this one?

use this one...

basically ive installed this one... to allow facebook users to log into my forum. .. but i just thought that they would be able to add the app to there page on facebook or are they nto ment to see the page .. its just an invisible extra thats needed to make this work?

that's it! :)

Send you a PM

let me know when this happens so I can add to my donations.

Anyone know how to fix this:

I think that happens with IE6 - not IE7 or FF. But I'm not 100% sure

after /forum

make it look like /forum/xd_receiver.htm

so call back will be
http://www.yourdomain.com/yourforumr...d_receiver.htm

DJScorpio is right, make sure your Callback URL is set so that callbackurl/xd_receiver.htm can be found.

would have loved to know that 2 days ago ;) :eek::erm:
