Facebook Connect - Allow your users to login with their Facebook account (for 3.8)
Developer Last Online: Dec 2011
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:
Benefits of Facebook Connect
Facebook users will be able to receive Facebook notifications when:
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. 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. Show Your Support

This hack is amazing! I'm about to install it, but I do have one question... how does it work in regards to forum permissions?
Ie. If I am connected to FB via this hack and I post in a staff topic, its not going to publish the name/link of that topic in the news feed on FB, is it? If your whole forum is set to private (you have to register to view it, and some other areas are set by postcount minimum) then does this mean that topics will still be published? As obviously FB cannot tell which of its users' friends have the same access to read those topics iykwim. Thanks in advance, waiting for confirmation so I can get this up and going |

I turned off the publish stories function because the yes or no function was annoying and I had to tell it "no" on some so I couldn't just set it to "always do this"... |

I just also read through some posts in the 3.7 version topic for this hack and noticed a few people asking for the option in the ACP to exclude certain forums completely from being published to the news feed. I'd like to also make this request! For the time being I'm going to keep the news feed option turned off because of the privacy issue, we have too many private forums which I don't want to risk going to the news feed - even some of the topic titles can be too personal. But hoping to be able to let our members use it soon if a future version has this change Thanks Sllik for such a fantastic hack, I've voted it for MOTM |

wouldnt <if condition="forumid=1"> around the template edits in newreply,newthread and showthread (for quick replies) stop the potential news feeds being posted for hidden forums?
going to setup a test board to test a few things before i put this live, and cant do that now, so maybe someone who is in a position to test this idea could? |
