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.

Never had this issue. Has anyone else?
Is there an alternative to this plugin to integrate with facebook? The developer obviously isn't coming back. He hasn't even made a version for VB4
After uninstalling this mod I keep receiving emails concerning database errors. Below is an example. I have deleted all uploaded files and removed all template edits and still don't understand where this is coming from. Any help would be appreciated.
