[Assigned] Sponsoring: $600 for module update

A little feedback

1) The changes to the Facebook API make this non-trivial. The last time I checked, the new API did not even expose all the features the module currently uses.

2) Since the module also uses XFMBL this is probably a bigger challenge tha
n you think.

3) I though Facebook required an email address for registration.

brakkar,

Thanks for trying to get some momentum behind updating the module. Really appreciate it.

Looking forward to hearing from more of the module maintainers....

Cheers,
Ben

Subscribing.

And considering adding a small amount to the bounty, too.

Here's my offer:

If three more people pledge an amount greater than $10, then I will contribute $20 to the bounty. :)

I'll gladly add $20 as well.

two more!

Is this a project that can be completed by july the 4th? Feasible?

$20 from me too

Hey brakkar,

Great work in getting this done! Quick question for you: Do you have any interest in getting the new version of the module ported to Drupal 7 after the above updates are completed?

AWESOME! This is great news.

20 bucks to be gladly paid in full.

Can I also offer a sponsorship for an extra feature?

I would like to reward my users for successful refers (currently I use the invite module to allow users to email other people and if they click the link and register they receive X userpoints).

Would it be possible to add some kind of action logic which is aware of referals through fbconnect to replicate the above behaviour.

Im not sure how big of a job this is so im not sure how much to offer. If someone could provide more insight onto this problem then the feature can hopefully be added and im sure others could make good use of it also.

oxford-dev,

This is exactly the position I find myself in. I don't really want to use the invite module and Facebook connect in tandem - I'd rather just use FBConnect for friend invites. But the Invite module allows my users to earn member points which is core to my users. Would be great if FBConnect could give userpoints for successful referrals.

I would gladly pay for that.

I would suggest using rules to perform an action such as that. Since rules is already integrated with userpoints (if I remember correctly), you can easily trigger a userpoint action to do just that. One way is setup a landing page for referrals, and use the "Content is going to be viewed" event to trigger the userpoint adjustment.

Just working off the top of my head, here :)

Thats an idea ive been toying around with.

To do this there would need to be some reference to the referer in the invite link, is that the case? Im not sure what happens with invites, is the referer an argument in the url?

1) Update this module to use latest facebook php library - done
2) Prevent this module from interfering with facebook social plugins.. - should work
3) Remove need to enter email when registering (even when in non express registration). - nothin here
4) Make sure there are no outstanding bugs. - in progress

btw. README is outdated and it's an first approach. Don't expect from it something especial

To further my contribution, would you like some documentation for beginners?

and testing on my local server now.

Good gawd it works, kinda. Had it up and running...kinda... from a fresh install in about 30 minutes.

Now who do I pay?

The improvements in documentation alone are worth it...on my end.

Added some documentation (again in github).
btw. Who is the developer that has assigned to complete work ?
