Integration with vBulletin - Facebook Connect - Update for Facebook PHP SDK (v.3.0.0)

I rewrote this plugin using ideas from sllik's mod.

Not Supported!!
This code is not supported. The Facebook API has since changed. Only provided for open source purposes ... feel free to modify at your own risk.

you can make the user enter a password to enter from facebook?
hat way the user can also enter without facebook. Otherwise, when the forum is updated or stop having mod support those users will be lost.
that's why I do not install this mod : S

PD: Taringa los usuarios que entran no tienen contraseña y no pueden cambiarla, cuando el mod no tenga soporte o si facebook cambia su api no podrán entrar. Lo ideal seria que la entrada por facebook fuese como la de vbhispano.com. Este mod tal y como está no sirve.

Not a big deal - users can simply choose to reset password, with or without this mod if they require it.

As an aside, I've trimmed back my fbconnect_button template to

<if condition="!$show['member']">
	<a href="#" onclick="javascript:fblogin(); return false;">
		<img src="/images/facebook/fbconnect.png" border="0" />
	</a>
</if>

so that it only displays the connect button when someone is not logged in.

Most normal users on a board are not aware of the password reset link
Others may simply want to enter the traditional way and can not because 90% never bother to reset the password for access.
The option to add a password in the registry is needed to complete the mod. It is a mistake that is not

I can certainly add it in. It would require about a days worth of coding and testing. But at the moment I'm busy with a full time job as a consultant (money talks )

Get a couple other people to request this, some paypal encouragement and I can probably release and update with this feature in a week or two.

Thanks for this modification.

We have some trouble because unregistered users don´t see the fbconnect-button. Registered user see the button and can connect with this button to facebook.

And how can a connected to facebook user delete this connection to get the old way to login?

Thanks for support. We will donate if all is running well.

can not, for that reason this mod is useless : S
More sooner or later you will lose users who entered through facebook.

If the user was a registered member before using facebook connect, they can simply enter in user name and password as they previously did. If they are a new user who registered via facebook connect, they will need to reset password and then they can log in.

Actually - I think I might have experienced this also - when I noticed a user post count out (a user I know connected with FBCOnnect) I just rebuilt post counts in AdmionCP Maintenance tools and it fixed it up.

Looks like you found a bug. I'll have a fix up in a couple hours.

Not sure what might cause this. The code sets a cookie using a backend request with the authentication token returned by facebook's login popup. It then reads that cookie for any page that has the nav bar.

When is this happening? Right after logging in? Right after a new user connects?
