Hi there,

I added the fbconnect block for my module.
I don't get a fbconnect button for login at all.

also how can I test my app to make sure that it is installed correctly?

Thanks,
C

see http://www.drupalforfacebook.org/node/1106 If you're using IE, XFBML will not work without that change to the theme.

As for testing, you have to go through every feature you expect to work and see that it does in fact work.

Make sure the Facebook Connect block is set to full HTML not filtered.
That was the issue I had getting it to show.

I am not getting a login or a logout button when I place the fb connect block

1). Ttaking a look at source I get this where I placed the facebook connect block:

Facebook users login here.

2) I edited my page.tpl.php file

at the end of page.tpl.php
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/JavaScript_Client_Library -->

3) I don't understand how I am logged in (unless I am reading this right).

I enabled the devel block and get this:

Page Status = Connected via Facebook Connect
fb_facebook_user =
fb_api_check_session() = Returned FALSE
local user = Anonymous
fb_get_fbu =
base_url = http://localhost/drupal
base_path = /drupal/
url() returns = /drupal/
$_REQUEST[q] is =
arg(0) is = home
arg(1) is =
session_id = 2ae4b961f15c8e83f70b8a21154cc857
session_name = SESScfc90a62c81b7bfc6f292320b1d0b8ca

Is there a URL I could look at?

The page status "Connected via Facebook Connect", means the app is initialized, not that you are logged into facebook. (I could make that more clear).

it is on my local machine

http://localhost/drupal for my install

http://apps.facebook.com/activelyout is the app (which really just links to the above url)

I get this:

Error while loading page from Login to activelyOUT
The URL http://localhost/drupal/fb_cb/784/ is not valid.

There are still a few kinks Facebook and the makers of Login to activelyOUT are trying to iron out. We appreciate your patience as we try to fix these issues. Your problem has been logged - if it persists, please come back in a few days. Thanks!

does this not really work on a localhost?

do i need to have fb_infinite installed and fb_connect?

on the module page, it says install infinite session or fb connect with feeds.

if I don't install fb_infinite, then I don't see the fbconnect block.

You need a URL that facebook can reach. Localhost will not do.

I am still on my local machine.

I just re-enabled fb after uninstalling

I am somehow signed into facebook through fb.

How do I know? My facebook picture is showing up in my account.

I don't quite understand how at this point.

I don't see a Facebook Connect block... the only block that's available on my local machine is the "fbconnect friend" block.. and none of the blocks have the option of changing the block's HTML settings.

Can you please post some screenshots so that I can understand where to modify these settings?

Thanks,
-Anil

Please open a new issue. This thread is too difficult to follow.

To get the facebook connect login block, enable the Facebook Connect module under Drupal for Facebook (aka fb_connect.module)

This resolved my problem. It was weird because it worked at first but then I went in to change the display to only anon users so it showed only on the login page. So when I saved the block it moved the input format to filtered HTML and thus broke the block.

Hopefully this helps someone else looking for the same issue.
