Capture additional information during Facebook registration - First, Last Name

[sacobra]

Hello,

I have 2 custom profile fields - First & Last name. During Facebook registration, these details are also passed to the code since these are public.

I've been trying to enable Facebook auto-registration & have been trying to get these 2 field info also from the FB authentication response and store it in the custom fields without success.

Below is what I've tried. Could someone figure out what I need to do more to get this working.

In functions_facebook.php, changed the below code to

    // the array we are going to return, populated with FB data
    $profilefields = array(
        'fbuserid'           => '',
        'fbname'             => '',
        'biography'          => '',
        'location'           => '',
        'interests'          => '',
        'occupation'         => '',
        'homepageurl'        => '',
        'birthday'           => '',
        'avatarurl'          => '',
        'fallback_avatarurl' => '',
        'timezone'           => ''
    );

this

    // the array we are going to return, populated with FB data
    $profilefields = array(
        'fbuserid'           => '',
        'fbname'             => '',
        'biography'          => '',
        'location'           => '',
        'interests'          => '',
        'occupation'         => '',
        'homepageurl'        => '',
        'birthday'           => '',
        'avatarurl'          => '',
        'fallback_avatarurl' => '',
        'timezone'           => '',
        'first_name'         => '',
        'last_name'          => '',
    );

Also

    $profilefields['fallback_avatarurl'] .= (!empty($fb_info['pic']) ? $fb_info['pic'] : '');
    
    $profilefields['first_name'] .= (!empty($fb_info['first_name']) ? $fb_info['first_name'] : '');        //Added by Sumith
    $profilefields['last_name'] .= (!empty($fb_info['last_name']) ? $fb_info['last_name'] : '');        //Added by Sumith
    
    return $profilefields;
}
    $profilefields['fallback_avatarurl'] .= (!empty($fb_info['pic']) ? $fb_info['pic'] : '');
    
    $profilefields['first_name'] .= (!empty($fb_info['first_name']) ? 
    
    return $profilefields;
}

Added 2 entires in table SETTINGS to enable the below in register.php - fb_userfield_first_name & fb_userfield_last_name

Added this

                case $vbulletin->options['fb_userfield_first_name']:
                    $profilefield['data'] = $fb_profilefield_info['first_name'];
                    $fb_importform_skip_fields[] = 'first_name';
                    break;
                    
                case $vbulletin->options['fb_userfield_last_name']:
                    $profilefield['data'] = $fb_profilefield_info['last_name'];
                    $fb_importform_skip_fields[] = 'last_name';
                    break;

After

                case $vbulletin->options['fb_userfield_occupation']:
                    $profilefield['data'] = $fb_profilefield_info['occupation'];
                    $fb_importform_skip_fields[] = 'occupation';
                    break;

However with these changes the first & last name are not getting populated in the custom fields.

Can anyone help me here.

Thanks.

How to populate custom profile fields during Facebook auto-registration?

In hook fb_auto_register added the following code:

PHP Code:

$userdata->set_userfields(array('field5' => $info['first_name']), true, 'normal', true); 


This resulted in a redirect to fbdoredirect=1

Even this didn't help

PHP Code:

$userdata->set_userfields(array('field5' => $info['first_name']), true, 'register', true); 


Anyone here getting custom profile fields populated during Facebook auto-registration?

SOLVED.

The array is being requested as reference. So need to create the array and assign the array variable to the set_userfields method.
