how do i remove my linked facebook account from an account on the forum that i was testing?

[GoTTi]

also when users register on the site using the google and aim login options, and register with the forum, it registers the user account with a wierd email address, like 2389072375827@www.SITE.com why is that?

Because most of our servers are 32-bit, anything that is assigned as an Integer will be limited to 2147483647. Facebook Template ID's are way above this.

Therefor, to fix, close your board and place it into Debug Mode, by adding this line to your config.php, after <?php

PHP Code:

$config['Misc']['debug'] = 1; 


Go to your Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> vB Nexus Configuration.

For all of the Template Bundle ID configs (there are four of them), click [Edit] and change it's Data Validation Type to Numeric, and save.

Once your done changing all four turn off debug mode by removing the line I noted before and re-open your board.

This isn't really a bug in vBulletin Nexus, it's a limitation in our servers. They way they had it set up is the correct way to do things.

Thank you Ryan. I am able to submit now in FB.

Post #275. I have commented on this at least 4 times in the thread, as have others.

You can not get email from the providers. Most likely a security measure but honestly I have not researched it. For Facebook you get a proxy email that will work. The others get a somewhat random email with your site info in it. This will not work.

ok and how do i unlink a facebook account to a forum account? so when i am doing test or whatever, i dont want it to keep automatically logging in. i want it to ask the regular questions like what name do u want or do u have an account...

how do i unlink the facebook account from the forum account?

[Calash]

Was the Forum account there and you linked it or was it created when you signed on using your Facebook account?

Simple way is to Delete the forum account, but if it is one you use then the best way to unlink it that I can think of is to edit the Database and remove the entry that has the Forum ID from the vbnexus_nonvbuser table.

This should be made easier. An option in the userCP or even something under the Admin tools.

Just as a general warning, make sure that the account has a valid email especially if it was created by Facebook or Google Friend Connect. The password local password is what appears to be a hash of some data and likely unknown so after you break the association you will need to reset the forum password to login.

Thanks Calash,
I would really appreciate if you can tell how that step can be accomplished.

I have made a new plugin and made it global, and $vbnex_login works fine on vbulletin but when I use that on wordpress it's not working.

Thanks
