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.

When I tried to install this I got an error using the quick reply function on the site. It kept returning an error stating that my post needed to be more than X characters long, when it was.
I may have missed something in the template changes, but as of now I've removed all the template changes, deleted the application on fbook and uninstalled it from my site.
I was just wondering if anyone else had those problems before I try again.
Furthermore, joining this way they do not have to add personal details as per forum rules, so seems they can bypass normal forum security.
Also this presents a database error, for this user when clicking their username, unfortunately meaning we must now delete this user.

I am also getting this error only on those that have registered through facebook connect. Has there been any progress on this?
I noticed you logged in through facebook connect on my site. When I clicked on your name I got the following error instead:
Database error in vBulletin 3.7.4:
