Yeah, the future for this mod is looking pretty damn grim unless someone actually comes in and provides support for it.

The idea is good, but the implementation of it is just pathetic.

This should, in fact be changed to not supported, since the author doesn't wish to provide a bit of support, either here, or on their own forums.

Alright, I've messed with getting this to work right for the last three days now, and I'm constantly running into problems, too many to list. I consider myself a decent troubleshooter / coder, but there's no way I would spend anymore time on this product until it's garaunteed to work. I've been through 17 pages of pleas for assistance, and support I've seen is next to nil, that stated, I'm off to look for something else.

Good luck on this mod, the idea is great and would be one of those mods that every board must have if it were implemented with proper project management in mind. If it would only work as advertised people would use it ... and so would I.

What bugs me is that all of our bug reports and fixes were just ignored. You got a community here backing you up....use it.

At least it is marked as reusable code.

Uninstalled. this mod is not supported. 15 days amd still no response from the coder.

I used this mod mainly because there was a thread started over at vb.com about this mod. I thought that progess would be quick.

VB.ORG - how long does one need to wait for a fix? :erm:

This mod should be marked as not supported. Great idea, but at this rate it will be 2015 before it even gets out of beta stage!

This is really sad.

And I agree. This mod needs to be changed to NOT supported.

I understand you don't know me, but I wouldn't tell you to do something unless I had tested it and found it to be pretty much solid myself.

That one query does one thing: It deletes your userid from the non vb user table, so that you can signup again, or reassociate the account. As long as you have your uid from vbulletin, you're not going to screw any thing up.

IB:
This is your chance to shine here. Please, don't let your customers (you know, us, the vB users) down. Unfortunately, it looks like you're doing just that, and ignoring reports about critical issues. Please, for the love of God, post an update to your paying customers saying "hey, these are acknowledged and we are investigating them"!!! That's really all it will take to keep many of us from knocking the product. As it is, right now, it does need to be downgraded to "not supported", because of the lack of response and support from IB

I've seen you around the forums here and your advice has been solid, so it's not your advice I'm worried about. It's my tendency to mess things up, as I've had very little to do with phpmyadmin, lol.

I'll give it a go, if you'll tell me how?

[Ohiosweetheart]

Has anyone else seen a marked increase in spam posts after installing this mod?
I sure have.

[wolfstream]

I've been running with fbconnect for a year or better on 3 forums. Not a bit of spam there.
Since switching over, again, not a bit of spam.

Then again, I make sure that individuals wait till 10 posts to make a post with links in it, and most spammers don't want to wait them 10 posts

[Ohiosweetheart]

Do you limit the links by usergroup, promotions? Or do you use a mod?

Thanks. I wasn't sure that vB settings applied to FB login users. I guess I'll try that.
