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.

Yeah, I installed the latest version.
We found out part of the problem (Lynne and I)

When the product is disabled, it looks for noavatar.gif, but when it is enabled, it is getting the avatars from:

http://profile.ak.facebook.com/v228/...15507_3384.jpg

Thus showing the wrong avatars.
This is really causing me trouble and if this is not sorted, I will have to uninstall this feature, which I really dont want to do

Errors while loading page from application

Parse errors:

FBML Error (line 329): illegal tag "body" under "fb:canvas"There are still a few kinks Facebook and the makers of Tertulia Forums are trying to iron out. We appreciate your patience as we try to fix these issues. Your problem has been logged - if it persists, please come back in a few days. Thanks!

I get this error when I set my canvas page to FBML. it works fine in IFRAME. Is this the correct setting?

What do you mean? its the same avatar for everyone?

Hex_legend · #**1106** 01-30-2009, 09:26 AM

not everyone, but for a lot of users.
someone has just changed their picture on facebook, and its changed a few other users avatars to the same one.
It's really weird.

sllik, suggestion: Rather than relying on your own password generator (that's, I figure, a snippet from public domain), why not using fetch_random_password($length) from vb's functions.php?

AlexanderT · #**1108** 01-30-2009, 11:53 AM

Another suggestion: You could add an extra column to the user db table do store a copy of the mapped fbuid. This way you could save the extra query from get_fb_uid() in showthread, newthread, and newreply and have quick everywhere-present access to figure out whether the logged-in user was created via facebook.

Alternatively, without adding this extra column, you could hook fetch_userinfo_query and add the info from your fbuser table like this:

PHP Code:


			
$hook_fields = array("fbuser.fbuid");
$hook_joins = array("LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "fbuser AS fbuser ON (fbuser.userid = user.userid)",);
$hook_query_fields .= ', ' . implode(', ', $hook_fields);
$hook_query_joins .= "\r\n" . implode("\r\n", $hook_joins);

to add the fbuid (if present) to the global userinfo array (untested, but in principle it should work).
