thanks fr upgrades can you please tell me what were the bugs in the prvious version

Hello, when I put fbconnect folder in the mod folder then I enable the plugin it states "fbconnect is a misconfigured plugin".  Any suggestions?

Thanks!

In FireFox 3.6b5 the "Connect with Facebook" button is just showing as text. In Google Chrome it is showing as a working button. Any fixes?

not really sure what this plug-in really does.  i successfully installed the plug-in and linked an account to facebook from my fatwow.com site.  I never did receive any type of confirmation e-mail.

Thanks for this, very useful.  Just a couple of things I've found.

Although the 'Name' and 'Location' and profile picture are updating, the rest of the profile isn't.

Also, everytime you log in, also, the Wire post updates with your Facebook status, which is cool except if you haven't changed it and you log in again, it repeats it.  Same with your profile pic - shows up as changing your profile pic on the River again.

If you'd like to see what I mean, http://www.skyskratcher.com.

Cheers!

i really like this plugin but i think user are getting confused. Why do we need the sync account window and verifiy password window.

i think it should be a simple 1-2 process

1, click on facebook connect and pull all info

2, pop up window ask user email  (so that we have an email to contact the user), this only happens the first time they login/creat account

All other feature should be secondary, such as sync account etc, they should not be in a popup form when user first register. This is way to many options as a user creates an account

lady11yi what version of elgg are you using?

igbram, actually the code creating the buttons comes from the facebook javascript api, i would suggest checking their issue queue to see if there are any reported issues with that version of FF.

cofelice there is quite a bit of information at the top about what this does rtm.

skyskratcher, this plugin only pulls the information listed above, if your looking to update information that isnt listed above you will need to modify the update_facebook function in the start.php file. if your account is created solely from your facebook account and is not synced with an existing account, your account will be updated based on cron runs, or when you login, this is a fully synced facebook account, if you look on the settings for your user it will tell you this. if you do not sync the account you will recieve an email update, however if you sync with an existing account an email is not required because your user is already activated, has a login and password.

nadiab the option to set what the user see's in the dialog boxes was partially due to your request, if you feel your users are confused use this option to explain better what is going on. this plugin complies with the tos for facebook's connect api, it has options to sync users in order to provide the greater user base with more options, there is a facebook connect plugin that does just create a new account without any options, i recommend that if you need a more simplified version for your users. however if u read above you will see that if a user does not have an existing account or does not opt for to sync their accounts a new one will be created skipping the password request.

Thanks for the response, but I think you may have missed the fundamental points.  About Me is in the list above, but that's not syncing.

The other issue is that if you log out and log back in, even if your status on Facebook and Profile pic remain the same, it posts a River notice that you have changed your profile pic (again) and a Wire message with your staus (again).  If you were to log out and in again multiple times without ever acctually changing anything on Facebook, you just get a long list of repeated messages in the river and the wire.  Does this make sense?

Its not an error as such, just what I perceive as a fault in the way it works.  Renders it kind of isuable for me unfortunately because once lots of users are using it, it will just will up the pages with repeated garbage. 

Thanks again for your time,

Jude

skyskratcher: We'll make sure to include that fix in the next version coming out fairly soon, just need to incorporate some of the other options and we'll release a fix for that, we're including a k.i.s. option, keeping it simple for those users who want to create new users for facebook only and dont want the sync option.

if you have any other ideas or find any more bugs please let us know here :)

Thanks for the Quick Response :) Here's what I found after poking arround online:

"Moving the FeatureLoader and Initializing Javascript from after the body tags to just before the login button code causes the login button to actually render, and be clickable.  It wasn't before (in Firefox, only).  However, in Firefox, clicking it reloads the page without popping up a login window."

Does that give you any ideas on how we could fix the issue?

Can the kiss be an admin feature instead of a user featuer.

Please detail the KISS feature before implementing it

@spring hosting

look at how techcrunch uses facebook connect. http://bit.ly/67XQGK link at the bottom and see how easy it is to log in with there facebook connect. A lot of user are use to this kind of login and it would be great if you had such an easy option. The only thing that is missing is the email address window

<!--Session data-->

Is there a site where I can try it?

Regards.

We're taking off for christmas, so we'll let you know about updates next week. happy holidays everyone!

@spring hosting.. a few people have tried this out on my site now... and every time they do, it makes two empty posts to the wire from Facebook.  This seems to be unnecessary noise.  How can this behaviour be changed please?

Hey, very nice!  I tried it on Mark Bridges site.  Noticed that my FB status got put in twice, just FYI.  Thanks for the hard work. It's great.

Thanks for the work.  I am new to elgg and definately this plugin will help pull users who concurrently use facebook at the same time
