It's not so much though that i want "all features" turned on, I'd like to be able to set the default and perhaps an overwrite in admin for each setting.

That way when you add a new feature I an force it on anyone using the system (using my judgement of whether that's the right approach).

As for the 3rd option on facebook.php for "users already with an account, connect them now" would solve all kinds of confusion with users trying to register a second account with their facebook only for the email address to be the same and get stuck in a weird facebook / user logged in scenario without either being connected properly (which has happened a few times)

Keep up the good work. Regarding graphics and buttons / layout, happy to help with this to get this mod polished up.

My only other criticism is that some of the language / phrases used in the mod are quite informal. While I'm happy that you're obviously a laid back guy and like that to show in your app, would be good if the phrases were a standard serious formal tone for those that do run professional forums, just a suggestion.

I thought about bitfield settings so you can select which options should be turned on automatically when user connected/registered. But you know? I don't think forcing member using new feature is a good idea, I think you should post an announce or something in that case. But if it's just an auto-turn-on after successful connection, it's acceptable. I will build it this way

It would be great if you can contribute some buttons or you have any suggestion on the templates. I will make changes in the new releases

Thank you for your suggestion, I will take that one seriously :D I will do

I noticed someone has already worked on a mod here for openinviter:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ht=openinviter

If you can get openinviter tied w/ this mod, your mod would be on the first page of "most downloads". I'm sure of it! :)

Hi mate, the visionary of being on the first page is cool but actually, I don't really understand how OpenInviter can help this product in it's task (connect with Facebook). You have an idea? Share with meeee, please :eek:

RidinHighSpeeds 10-16-2009 04:17 PM

After installing your product, I take back what I recommended (openinviter). I've got to say, your product is by far the best facebook connect mod i've installed (i've tested all others). I integrated this with my site (http://www.defendingthetruth.com) and sent out a blast to all users to try it out. It's been a huge success so far and I appreciate you making this a simple mod to install! :)

The only suggestion I can think of is giving users the capability to change "Granted" permissions in their profile back to "Not Permitted" ;) Other than that, works great!!

I don't remember that there is a function we can call from our side to revoke extend permission (but we can revoke authentication completely). I will check it out later

Anyway, guys, look at this screencast and tell me what you think :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ComjeipReE4 (wait for the HD version to have best quality, I have just uploaded recently)

Thanks

I think OpenInviter is a separate product, and there is no need to include this into the Facebook Bridge.

Please don't use bitfield settings that I don't like, because I have 18+ usergroups and it is very hard to update settings one by one.

Yes, just an auto-turn-on after successful connection is good idea. but without bitfield settings ;)

Oh oh, I mean I will put that setting in AdminCP, the main Settings page. Not all bitfield are in usergroup mate :D

Great video :) hear hear!

I may have found a small bug on ./profile.php?do=editavatar
When you try to select Synchorize Avatar from Facebook and hit save, I get this message:
Upload of file failed.

I do have custom avatars enabled so I don't know if that was tested out fully for this mod.. Not a big deal though ;)

Which source did you choose for Avatar Synchronize? If by some reason, the use don't have avatar or avatar not available (privacy settings), the script will be unable to sync between 2 systems. If the option is shown, mostly, it's the problem from Facebook's side (because if vBulletin board misses some of the required configuration, the option will be hidden)

Well, I have just got this new idea:

In version 2.1, the script will try to catch the request from Facebook's servers and produce a special page just for Facebook to fetch data. Now it supported thread/post view and memberinfo view. It's pretty good in my opinion. But there is one problem: when the thread/post contain many pictures, there will be only one of them display in the Publisher. I have made a change to the function and I will include it here. Upload overwrite the old file in root/fbb/ and user will be able to select one from many images for the link posted

Cheers :D

Veer 10-17-2009 11:30 AM

Updated.

Yes, its v good now, thanks. :)

I have just released the new version (2.1) with most of improvements are placed in AdminCP. Besides, the sharing ability is increased with meta tags support for Facebook's servers' requests. I hope you guys like it

For those who installed 2.0.2: just download the upgrade file, it's smaller and take less time to upload to your server ;)

A special note: If you use the share button in posts, make sure to place an image named "share_facebook.gif" in button directory. If you don't want to use that button, go ahead and disable it in settings page (AdminCP > Facebook Bridge > Edit Settings)

The upgrade is very good, you are excelling yourself on this well done, I'm more than happy to run this mod.

Checked today and have about 20 new users through it and so it is good to have that button there.

I've created a share button which goes with my button set, it's the common famfamfam silk set and the button goes ok with it.

here's the button: http://www.mygreatphone.com/forum/im...e_facebook.gif

you can see it in use here:

Attachment 105423

you can check out my integration on http://www.mygreatphone.com in the forums.

Keep on working at it pal. (I'd still love, as an admin to be able to set permissions in admincp, even if only as a backup for those users who can't work it out on their own, atm you have to try and explain and thats not always possible with some people. Admin should always have backup control.)

matthewhotdude 10-17-2009 02:10 PM

Don't suppose you have a psd of that button?

matthewhotdude 10-17-2009 02:16 PM

Dazkeirle, you know your site how you have the connect with facebook image. How did you do that? I can't seem to do it. This is what I have in the fbb_navbar_button template

Code:

<td><a href="facebook.php?$session[sessionurl_q]">Connect with Facebook</a><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/fbb/connectwithfacebook.gif" />
</td>


mrpaint 10-17-2009 03:42 PM

The button looks neat, thank you

Anyway, a new screencast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBwwiffLvJ8

Strike3ForumsMH 10-18-2009 09:32 AM

Hey mrpaint, that's the share button link for the postbit? I want to manually place it in my template and I just want to make sure the link I have to share it with Facebook is right.

Thanks!

mrpaint 10-19-2009 06:18 AM

Hmm, no more replies huh? Kinda surprise after tons of questions on the previous pages :D

Anyway, I have just figured out the way to publish new thread in a certain forum to a Facebook Page. The idea is you setup to publish threads in your Announcement forum to a Facebook Page but you can setup as many forum as you want, each forum can publish to different Page. You can see it in action here:

Posting in... http://daohoangson.com/vb38/forumdisplay.php?f=4 (it's Annoucement forum but all Registered Member can post since it's a test board)
Post published in... http://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Demo...9356066?v=wall (posts are published on behalf of the Page itself)

A small notice: it's a bug in the Facebook Platform that we can't use the Page of the Application. Actually, we can publish to the Application Page but the posts will be published on behalf of the Page Owner.

Anybody interest in this feature? Let me know and I will pack it up for you :D

drsli 10-19-2009 08:33 AM

That?s exactly what I?ve been looking for, mrpaint! :) I?m in for opting!

Calash 10-19-2009 02:49 PM

Don't know if I would use it much but it sounds very interesting.

Just pushed the newest update to my live site and swapped out vBnexus. The migration worked perfectly.

Great job :)

Edit: Actually, now that I looked at your demo links I think I would use it. It would make a great way to keep people informed of recent updates and such. Kind of like the Twitter mod I have running, but only for announcements and such.

mrpaint 10-19-2009 05:14 PM

Version 2.2 is out

Besides the requested function of selecting auto on options for new connections. I added the ability to publish threads to a Facebook Page. Please setup a Fan Page, you shouldn't use the Application Page because there is a bug in Facebook Platform that prevent us from publishing on behalf of the Page itself. Page publishing can be used in numbers of ways such as Annoucement forum's threads get published to official Board Page. And if your board has some kind of club or group or clan, you can ask them to setup their Facebook Page and send all thread to that page, automatically! All we need is ideas, right? Hope you like it :D

Note: There is no Upgrade package this time because almost every files get updated. You can remove the old files and upload again because some files have been removed to improve performance.

Regards,

Matt Lathrop 10-19-2009 06:03 PM

Hey I just tried the send notification thing... It was only able t send it to 604/3160 users... any reason? I am on a slower than usual internet connection if that might be it.

You have 3160 connected users? Or you have 3160 registered users? The send notification only send to successful connected users

Go to the Connected Users Manager to see how many pages are there so we can find out the number of connected users. I think I need to put a counter her for easier use :D

Awesome stuff mrpaint.

So, when is IMs going to be added? :$

bgootz 10-21-2009 12:42 AM

Hello there,
I'm trying to install this on my forum and the upload and import are fine but when I go to change the settings through the AdminCP i get a parse error, namely:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/bl8kfrum/public_html/fbb/functions.php on line 95

This is running it with PHP4. When I change it to PHP5, I don't get that error anymore but I don't get the entire settings page (I can't see the 'Save Changes' Button). Can anyone advise on what to do? Thanks.

Screenshot please. Normally, if there is something wrong, the error will be produced at the top of the settings page

hi mrpaint,

just another suggestion for you.

Unfortunately if you share a post with images that have been added as an attachment through vb, the share story doesn't show the images, it just gives a link to the attachment, even if you have added the attachment images to the post.

If you add images using the [IMG] BBcode they show in facebook nicely.

Any way you can support images when attached as an attachment?

Wow, it's definitely a brilliant idea but it's not as simple as wrapping them in the [IMG] BBCode but I will find a way to deal with it and get back to you guys asap. Cheers :D

Thank you a lot
