Integration with vBulletin - YAFB - Yay! Another Facebook Bridge

The add-on has been updated to reflect Facebook new policy starting October 1st (read more here). Basically this is a maintenance update for user of this add-on from the past. The add-on now supports vBulletin 3.8.x only. In this new version, there are only the basic features: register and login (some simple sharing too). It keeps old settings so you don't need to re-configure.

How to update (this is important):
1. Disable the add-on in AdminCP
2. Upload files in the package (make sure you disable the add-on before uploading)
3. Import the xml in the package, choose Yes to rewrite.
4. Re-enable the add-on
5. Done

Just remember to disable the add-on before uploading files and you will be okie.

I have this installed and wanted to ask as couple questions.

1. Where does this app grab the information from when clicking Fun: Fans List in the users cp?

2. When enabling permisions how can I have it set where the user has to check the box everytime they post/ or reply, etc to post this data to facebook rather then have it checked by default ?

I?m only getting a blank page after clicking on fun list. But I didn?t register with Facebook so far.

I?m a professing Facebook-mod-surfer! So I?m joining the party and am grateful for the reliable responses and the support here.
Thank you very much for creating this new facebook-mod, mrpaint!

Btw.:
To have the fbconnect-button nearby the register-link, I edited the navbar-template.
Searched for

<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
			<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[register]</a></td>

and added

<td id="navbar_fbb" class="vbmenu_control">
				<a id="navbar_fbb_link" href="register.php?do=signup&fbb" rel="nofollow">
					<img src="$vboptions[bburl]/fbb/facebook_logo_16x16.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0"/>
					$vbphrase[fbb_navbar_button_text]
				</a>
			</td>

this whole code from your fbb_navbar_button-template below. Furthermore I deactivated this original template to avoid double-entries in the navbar. This was no prob with the template modification system.

API Key is absolutely correct.

Very nice suggestion. I have implement the recent posts profileblock successfully and I think I will release it asap

If it said invalid API key... I think you should try again and remove spaces or other stuffs. You may need to paste into notepad to check it before copy and paste into vBulletin Settings page

1.7.2 Added options for user to choose if he/she wants to display checkboxes all the time

Hmm, it's hidden in 1.7 release. Confirmed

Well, the Fan List is a test. I just take all threads from current user and count replies from others. Who posts most replies will get on the list. That's all

Don't understand your 2nd question

Hi Marco, it's just a warning or the page stops loading from there?

And vMail error is still there during Facebook registration:

Sorry, your e-mail address is incorrect (does not match the verification code).

That little vMail will work in the next version, you have my word

This is only on the intro thread.

Also when you hover over the Test2 Intro It will show this in my browser:

But it really goes to this link /showthread.php?p=0#post0
It only does this on the intro thread as well.

I took another look into the Intro Thread plugin and I found out that it duplicated the username by itself. Have you ever use that plugin before? I'm pretty sure that it will duplicate the username all the time. And about the link, it's because the plugin coder didn't use a proper procedure to create a new thread...

PS: Included the xml with the duplicated username fix. Just use it for your own with the testing purpose cause that plugin is not mine :P When I have time I will try to make it work better, hmm, when I have time

Have you tried press the connect button, login with your Facebook credencial (in the Facebook popup window)? If everything works well and you have connected before (and you enabled auto login function) so... you will be logged in automatically. Tell me the result

Result is same, I have disabled Auto Register and Enable Auto Login, when I click Facebook connect button (as guest) it can not open popup login window, it is going to "/register.php?do=signup&fbb" regular vb registration page.

I installed and followed the directions exactly but when I go to register on my forum I see no Facebook connect icon or instructions for logging in via facebook? Any ideas on what I missed?
