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


Facebook Connect
This add-on allows your guests and existing users to login with their Facebook account through Facebook Connect.

There is NO NEED to upgrade or reinstall if you already installed this mod for 3.7

Upgrade to 2.0.6 so that users with the new super long IDs will be able to login.


This mod conflicts with PhotoPost vBGallery!

Quick fix:
Disable the following PhotoPost vBGallery plugins:
  • Userinfo Merge
  • Integrate Postbit Showthread

Benefits of Facebook Connect
  • Users can simply login with their Facebook account without going through the registration process.
  • Increase user interaction and your traffic through Facebook notifications and news-feeds!
Features
Facebook users will be able to receive Facebook notifications when:
  • There is a reply to their thread or a thread that they're subscribing to
  • They receive a new PM
News-Feed will be published on to the user's wall when the user:
  • Logs in for the first time
  • Replies to a thread
  • Creates a new thread
Fetch user data from Facebook
Fetch data like name, location, profile picture and use it on your forums! (NOTE: Some data may not be available for some users)

Automatically befriend user's friends
If any of the user's friends are also registered on the forum, they will automatically be friends!

Professional Install/Upgrade/Support Services
Want this mod professionally installed? It's guaranteed to work on your forum! Download the archive and see INSTALL.html/UPGRADE.html for more details!

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.

I love this plugin and it works great on several sites I manage, but I just launched a 4.0 site yesterday and I am really hoping that there will be a release for that soon, or if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

I cant believe the mods on this board allow this horrible add on to stay here. its not supported, rarely works, most errors take down your board, not easy to remove, and the dev will only respond when he's paid. (sometimes).

do yourself a favor. do NOT install this mod.

I was going to install this mod but, with all the negative feedback... forget it!

Thanks for the advice.

Can anyone tell me....

If I decided to remove this HACK from my site what the steps are?

Am I going to have to reverse engineer all the steps that I did to make it or is it possible to just deactivate it and then install something else like YAFB Ya Another FB Bridge!

It is unfortunate that I am even asking to do this as I guess I am now going to loose all the members I already had that were associated with FB Connect!

The primary reason I am changing is the simple fact that when you make a post the FB Connect box only appears for a second and does not let you actually type anything in or send anything to your FB wall!

This sucks that I have to make a change but it is apparent that we are not getting any responses here and there is no other option to go....

UNLESS someone has another solution I am all ears!!!

Please I have a major release I was suppose to be launching over the last few days and now I am being held captive by this...

I do not want ot bring on any more members with this solution not working right!

AND I have to have the ability to be able to get notifications of activity like a post being responded to or PM being left...

Thank you for anything you can help me out here with!!!

J

TY for not responding I GUESS...

Because of the no response I jumped ship and tried Yah! Another Facebook Bridge and wow am I so glad I did...

They even have an import feature for accounts that were created in FB Connect to get them "ported" to YAFB!

So easy to use and so so so much more reliable!

Yes the coder still answers posts and yes there is a version for 4.x out there already!

Just thought you guys would like to know my findings!

In case you are in a similar situation!

Have a great day,

Sorry to have to post this as FB Connect when working is awesome! Just not working and we are not getting any feedback!
