Facebook Connect
This add-on allows your guests and existing users to login with their Facebook account through Facebook Connect.

WORKS WITH 3.8!

Benefits of Facebook Connect
  • Users can simply login with their Facebook account without going through the registration process.
  • Increase user interaction and your traffic through Facebook notifications and news-feeds!
Features
Facebook users will be able to receive Facebook notifications when:
  • There is a reply to their thread or a thread that they're subscribing to
  • They receive a new PM
News-Feed will be published on to the user's wall when the user:
  • Logs in for the first time
  • Replies to a thread
  • Creates a new thread
Fetch user data from Facebook
Fetch data like name, location, profile picture and use it on your forums! (NOTE: Some data may not be available for some users)

Automatically befriend user's friends
If any of the user's friends are also registered on the forum, they will automatically be friends!

How to Upgrade From 2.0.0 to 2.0.1
  • Upgrade the product. (Import the product XML again and set overwrite to yes).
  • Update Feed Template IDs in the settings (make sure they are the same as at: FB Connect Options -> News-Feed Templates)
How to Upgrade From 2.0.1 to 2.0.2
See UPGRADE.html
  • Fixed the notification problem (notifications were sent to wrong people)
  • Login button will now be displayed on vbAdvanced pages
How to Upgrade From 2.0.2 to 2.0.3
See UPGRADE.html
  • Fixed the Facebook avatar displayed for the wrong people problem.
  • Added Facebook UID & Profile URL field to data map.
Professional Install/Upgrade/Support Services
Want this mod professionally installed? It's guaranteed to work on your forum! Download the archive and see INSTALL.html/UPGRADE.html for more details!

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.

Does this go for everyone? In 'Callback URL' setting put -> http://yoursite.com/xd_receiver.htm

Also. I have a Facebook contact grabber on my site to send invitations and if I enable your add-on I get this error after I submit my Facebook login info:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Facebook in /home/global43/public_html/includes/facebook/facebook.php on line 37

If I turn your addon off, it works fine. How can I make them both work?

Here is the url to the grabbers, there is 6 of them.

I'm not quite sure how to set all my settings on the Facebook site. It's asking for callback URLs and a bunch of other URLs and settings.

What exactly do I need to fill in on the Facebook side to get things rolling?

Wow, is all I can say. Great Add-on and I will certainly be employing this once my new site is up and running (waiting for 3.8 gold)

All you need to set is the Callback URL which should be the url of your forum like http://www.site.com/forums/

This MOD is great if all of our forums were new... if your has members already then we would be excluding them... and in most cases the current members post the most...

Are there plans to allow established users to use Facebook connect? i ididn't notice any type of dev roadmap... otherwise... this mod is easily going to win MOTM soon
