How to customize the JFBConnect panel to integrate better into a site? For example, how to reduce size, change fonts, and remove white background?

Well I have followed the instructions here to get this to work, but I can't get the fb connect button to appear in ie. In ff i get the error flooding and I have user registration email off. Hoping this will integrate with jom social soon. I think the development team has received plenty of $$$ to get the job done. Can't wait for a working version :) Anyone has any ideas on what to do if your login comes up in rokbox like I have at: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="roland.10kgreen.com">roland.10kgreen.com?

wtfbrb I added the required fbml script in the html file of my tempalte file in order to get the image to display in IE.

The script is something like: xmlns:fb="www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"

hope this helps.

First off, if you can post bugs in their own post, it will make things much easier to track going forward.

Styling the Invite module:
The only suggestion I have about this now is through custom CSS. You can do this easily using Firebug in FF, inspecting the elements that Facebook returns, and developing the look you want. The data they return is imbedded in the page, and not controllable through JFBConnect.

No Facebook connect image:
When a page has loaded that's using the login module, you should have the following code immediately after the <body> tag:
<script type="text/javascript">
if(document.namespaces) {
// IE
document.namespaces.add("fb", "www.facebook.com/2008/fbml");
} else {
var htmlElement = document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0];
htmlElement.setAttribute('xmlns:fb', 'www.facebook.com/2008/fbml');
}
</script>
If it's not there, please verify that you've enabled both the JFBConnect Authentication plugin and JFBConnect Namespace plugins. If that doesn't work, let me know if you have any unique configuration settings I should be aware of.

User Flooding:
I've only heard of this one other time, during the RC1 stage, and haven't heard of it again. Can you explain more of what's happening, or provide a link to your site to test out?

PLEASE, even if you're responding to any of the above, post in a new thread so I can track it better!

Are you sure your system is running PHP v5 or higher?
When configuring, was it right you hit 'apply' that you saw the error your seeing now? Or was there something else that you were doing when it stopped. This is a new problem
Did you enter your API Key and Secret Key?

The best way to quickly 'undo' this would be to access your database (through plesk, cpanel, PHPMyAdmin, etc), finding the Namespace plugin in the jos_plugins table, and setting the published value to 0. I'm not sure of your technical skills, so there's another option below.

- Unzip the com_jfbconnect package locally. FTP into your site and copy all the files from the component/helpers directory to components/com_jfbconnect/helpers directory.
- Unzip the file 'admin/packages/plg_system_jfbconnectnamespace_j1.5_v2.0.zip' locally. Upload the 2 files inside to your Joomla /plugins/system directory.

This may or may not fix the issue, but hopefully will help. If you're able to get back into your system, unpublish the Namespace plugin the first chance you get.

One feature request...

Today you can only link Joomla's Jomsocial fields that are of type TEXTBOX to Facebook fields.

Any plan to improve this and have Jomsocial checkboxes and radio buttons to link to fb fields ?

In the process of trouble shooting some issues with FBComments I think I found the fix for the problems with sh404SEF and possibly some other reported issues with native Joomla SEF causing 500 errors as well.

In this file: joomlaroot-->components-->com_jfbconnect-->helpers-->facebookhelper.php

Around lines 26 through 29 you should find this code:
function getXDReceiverLink()
          {
               return "index.php?option=com_jfbconnect&view=xdreceiver&format=raw";
          }

Simply add a preceeding “/” to the line that starts with “return” so it looks like this:
function getXDReceiverLink()
          {
               return "/index.php?option=com_jfbconnect&view=xdreceiver&format=raw";
          }

Thanks, Carl.

If sh404SEF is configured to skip JFBConnect, and the redirecto after new user creation is set to a non sef URL then it works fine in IE7. However to get FireFox to work sh404SEF must be completely disabled or the redirect returns a 500 error.

Hope this info is useful.

Thanks, Carl.

Hi there,

I have installed and added the api keys. I can log in using the facebook log-in and associate the account fine. Users also appear to be able to register ok using facebook details (so it is mostly working fine).

however, when using the invite facebook friends tool, I select the friend (all friends show up fine) and click the send xfbml invitation button, this shows up fine and I can adjust the custom message (all well so far), but on sending this I get redirected to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="www.connect.facebook.com/render_fbml.php">www.connect.facebook.com/render_fbml.php which says there is a mistyped url somewhere.

I have looked at the settings and tried to play, but can't seem to get this last bit sorted. Perhaps you know what is wrong (I am guessing you have come accross this) or can point me in the right direction?

EDIT - Ok, I found it, it is the 'post invite url' that needed adding in the invite module settings! (I had mainly been looking at the facebook application thinking the error was there!)

Many thanks,

NuMoon (John).

Hi,

I checked the overview page an there is no Facebook application information.
The application name and callback url is empty. I have created almost a full application in Facebook, although it is not needed.

Any ideas?
I am using the RC3 and Joomla 1.59 with Jomsocial.

The developper_website is: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="dev.toldiandco.com/">dev.toldiandco.com/ you will see that the Facebook login is not even functioning . Yet.. :)
Thank You.

Csaba
