These are the only real issues I'm having:

1 - We're getting an application response error when both registering and logging in via FB, and when we create a new thread, or make a post.

2 - There is no prompt to publish a post or thread or anything else to FB, altho when I first installed it, there was.

3 - Even tho I set my settings to yes in the userCP, they keep reverting back to No, which I'm assuming is why there's no prompt to publish to FB.

I AM, however, getting the notifications of new threads, new replies, etc, at FB.

Did you migrate from the Facebook Connect mod?

If so, the second query I posted will resolve this problem. It may cause a duplicate entry for some users if they joined after the migration, so check the table after running and delete any duplicates.

If you did not migrate just ignore me

[Ohiosweetheart]

lol.

Nope I never used the FB connect mod.

You shouldn't have a problem installing the SQL with this, the user tables aren't altered.

3 tables are created, vbnexus_nonvbuser, vbnexus_facebookuser and vbnexus_templates. The code for creating them is below. Note that this assumes that you're not using a prefix for your tables (ie: vb_ , etc). If you are, add the prefix to the 3 insert statements , so

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `vbnexus_facebookfeedtemplates` (

would actually be

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `vb_vbnexus_facebookfeedtemplates` (

in my above example:

The queries:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `vbnexus_facebookfeedtemplates` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `type` varchar(20) default NULL,
  `content` mediumtext,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ;


CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `vbnexus_nonvbuser` (
  `nonvbid` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `userid` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `associated` tinyint(1) default '0',
  `type` enum('1','2') NOT NULL default '1',
  `emailonfile` tinyint(1) default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`nonvbid`,`type`),
  KEY `userid_type` (`userid`,`type`)
) ;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `vbnexus_facebookuser` (
  `uid` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `newthreadfeed` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  `newreplyfeed` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  `newalbumfeed` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  `newpmnotify` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  `mythreadnotify` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  `subscribedthreadnotify` tinyint(1) unsigned default '1',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`uid`)
) ;

Another bug (do we have a list of these yet?)
When editing a post (inside the post, not when clicking on "go advanced"), the "do you want to submit this to facebook" pops up. When skipped, it goes to "page can not be found". This shouldn't even popup at all, it's just an edit.

[wolfstream]

And a request, sorry, not meaning to "hijack" the thread here, by any means
Currently, the system shows the notifications like

You've received a NEW thread reply on forumname

Can we please change that to be less generic? Tell us what thread, who posted the reply!

Also, for those wanting to change the notifications in the popup, the stuff that says "I posted a reply", or "I started a new thread", you can edit out

$vbphrase[vbnexus_facebook_user_posted_a_new_reply]

and

$vbphrase[vbnexus_facebook_user_posted_a_new_thread]

and configure that. I just blanked them out, it makes no sense at all to have these filled in.

Still receiving this error when attempting to publish a reply...

Application response error

Invalid template bundle id specified: 2147483647. You can see this because you are one of the developers of the app.

I've tried re-installing the mod and the same thing. I even deleted and re-added the application in FB.

[Ryan Ashbrook]

FOr those getting the array_merge warning, simply do this.

Open the *** Initialize app *** plugin and find this:

PHP Code:

$phrasegroups = array_merge($phrasegroups, array('vbnexus')); 


And above put this:

PHP Code:

if ( !is_array ( $phrasegroups ) )
{
    $phrasegroups = array ( );
}

5. PM notifications
6. Album Notifications
7. 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.

Awesome, going to install... Yes I paid for the other one, but my point wasn't to compare yours to his, rather verify if some of the lagging issues of the other one would be present in this one by virtue of being a facebook connection app.

I look forward to using this as I had to shut down the other.
