Issue Summary

Hello,

Has anyone tried to run http://drupal.org/project/fb and Simplenews together?

Would love to hear about it, and if it worked. Especially user emails and subscriptions to newsletters during registration via Facebook connect.

What does happen with Facebook Connect ? Do you have a standard register form after giving your facebook credentials ?

#2

Nope, you are not given a standard form.

Here is some more info on how it works currently, it seems this should be possible though.

#1146324: How do you send email to the authorized user?

Perhaps with a rule, that autosubscribes the user.

So this will only be possible once this gets in

I digged deeper into drupal for fb and it creates a user programmatically via user_save, but the user is never subscribed to the newsletter even though I enabled the silent option. Any tips?

This is working as (currently) designed, users are only subscribed to hidden newsletters when signing up manually through the form.

Closing this as a duplicate of the rules integration issue at #620498: Integration with Rules module, which allows to sign up any mail address (which will be assigned with the corresponding user automatically).
