Are the template bundles on Facebook and in the admincp supposed to match? Mine don't and I get an error. I've seen a couple other people have this problem and no answer yet. :-/
A few updates re: my own problems since IB apparently can't figure 'em out:

This is hit and miss. One forum has the problem, one doesn't. This is why templating this stuff is important, so we can figure out where the problem lies!

This should be resolved, as it is still a problem on all forums

A couple of issues so far.
1 - I am being randomly logged out a couple of times per day. It is not my Facebook cookie expiring as the login there is fine. This never occurred with the Facebook Connect mod.
Same here, only mine is predictable
Login using the mod (facebook option)
View a page or two in the forum (even demo forum)
Close browser
Go back to forum
In some cases I'll have to relog immediately, in others (my own), I'll have to relog after the second page view

I have yet to run across a mod interacting with the editor that didn't cause this issue. I think this is more of an editor problem, but yeah, it's annoying
This IS more useful than the fbconnect mod, in that it actually posts the URL when a new thread is posted, and when you logout of the forum, you're still logged in via facebook, which is definitely a good thing.
How is the FaceBook connection different than FaceBook Connect listed here as a mod?
FaceBook Connect has issues with PhotoPost vbGallery... Would this one as well?
How is the FaceBook connection different than FaceBook Connect listed here as a mod?
Let me count the ways:
The author at least tries to support the mod
Logging you out of the forum doesn't log you out of facebook
Allows for other (non facebook) logins
New thread notifications actually point to the thread
PM notifications
Album Notifications
Much, much more configurable
There are a few downsides, such as the non templated login stuff, but this is a beta mod, and they at least try to provide support, whereas the author for the other mod has ignored his own mods for months on end.
