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.

i fixed all errors.. GOD knows how i did it.. i even dont understand html much
but SCROLLING is still there.
Only other think I can think of is you have a block of javascript in a place vB or your skin is reacting poorly to it. Oh, you got one CSS error, but I don't think that's the problem. You can try it anyway. It's just a parse error.
In your Additional CSS Definitions, remove the last comma:
Code:
/* ***** small padding on 'thead' elements ***** */
td.thead, th.thead, div.thead { padding: 2px; }
td.tcat, div.tcat, { padding: 2px; }
Good job correcting those errors though. That will help you in the long run.
You have to change the path to the image to image you want. The path is in the code you added to that template.
Is it? The only image path in there is the "loading" image. In all the code I had to change there was nothing linking to the above icon so I'm guessing it's in another PHP/XML or whatever file.

Looks like he moved it from the image path to a CSS class. I don't quite see where it's at at the moment.
This is awesome. However will this auto-register a user to your forums as well and populate information for easy registration? That way if the user decides to leave facebook they can still login normally?
If they leave facebook then the only way they can access their account is by emailing the admin requesting their username/password.

Only a couple issues, those Facebook users that sign up for a new VB account do not show up in the memberlist, nor in the admin control panel when I search for them...

To change the image you have to change the path in clientscript/fbconnect.js
Whenever I click Submit new reply or thread my browser doesn't do anything. My fellow administrator does not encounter this problem and nor do the members. There is just no action when clicking the button.

What could be the cause of this?
Edit thanks for the image locaiton.
