It looks like Facebook has implemented a new service called Facebook Login: http://www.facebook.com/about/login/. It's different from Facebook Connect in that it allows non-facebook users to login/register for your site. It sits in an iFrame and will send the form data to your page. It looks like a good fit for a lot of sites.
Dave, do you have any plans for implemented this new service into DFF? Thanks

Dave Cohen commentedenable modules/fb/contrib/fb_registration.module and see what happens to your user/register form.
the module could use some configuration options and probably refinement, but it basically works.

hosais commentedHi,
I dont know exactly the status right now.
In my installation (6.x-3.0-rc11), the plugin has already there. In my register page (create new account). There is a block of facebook register.
However, there are 2 problems:
1) if I want this functionality, how can I integrate with other fields (I use profile content module right now) into this facebook register form. Furthremore, I need to be able to theme this part, so that the web looks like the same style (not facebook like).
2) If I do NOT want this figure, how can I remove it. Currently in user settings at admin/build/fb/fb_user, I can uncheck "Do alter registration form" to remove fconnect button. However, how to remove the regitration block.
Currently, I just remove the fb_registration.info and fbfb_registration.module in the module. Then this block disapears. I am not sure whether this will raise any other problem. It is curious that there is no option to disable facebook registration(maybe in the drupal modules page).

Dave Cohen commentedrestore your fb_registration.info and fb_registration.module.
Go to admin >> site building >> modules. Find fb_registration.module and uncheck the checkbox. Hit submit and fb_registration will be disabled.
