Staff Note: Moved to Graveyard - this will never work now that the old style facebook authentication is no longer available.

Troubleshooting Server Requirements:
PHP 5
If you get an error:
Code:
The Facebook Connect cross-domain receiver URL http://www.SITEURL.com/xd_receiver.h...%220.699%22%7D must have the application's callback URL http://www.SITEURL.com/forums/ as a prefix. You can configure the callback URL in the application's settings.
Means that there is something wrong with your callback URL. Your callback URL must be where xd_receiver.htm is; so when you enter [callbackurl]/xd_receiver.htm into your browser you should see a blank page (not a 404 page not found error or anything else).
If you get a continues this means there is a javascript error. Make sure you've done all the template edits correctly (especially footer & navbar). Clear your cache and reload the page.
If nothing happens when you click the Facebook Connect button make sure your callback url domain is the same as you forum domain (the one set in your forum settings) - more specifically make sure that there is a www (or isn't) in both domains.
Many more features may be implemented in the future so keep checking for updates.

can anyone verify if this mod working at the moment?
i'm thinking of reinstalling it
thanks!
It ALMOST works, it connects to facebook, user almost logs into site but http://mysite.com/forums/fblogin.php is returning 500 error. The file is there, but there's something wrong with the way it is delivered. So, that's where this is at.
I know FB connect works on other sites, what gives...
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'FacebookRestClientException' with message 'action_links-href URL is not properly formatted' in /home/xxx/public_html/vb/includes/facebook/facebookapi_php5_restlib.php:2403 Stack trace: #0 /home/xxx/public_html/vb/includes/facebook/facebookapi_php5_restlib.php(661): FacebookRestClient->call_method('facebook.feed.r...', Array) #1 /home/xxx/public_html/vb/xxx/fbconnect_registertemplates.php(34): FacebookRestClient->feed_registerTemplateBundle(Array, Array, NULL, Array) #2 {main} thrown in /home/xxx/public_html/vb/includes/facebook/facebookapi_php5_restlib.php on line 2403
Everytime I post I get this:
Supplied template data does not cover the following tokens [threadurl, threadtitle] needed for template '{*actor*} replied to {*threadtitle*}.'
WTF does this mean? Where is the damned developer?
