Feature Request: Facebook Connect

Tried your commit. Do I have to set some other settings to enable FB Connect? There is nothing shown on login-page on my installation.

I haven't put all the pieces together yet :-)

As I finish different parts, I'm pushing them to github so I can "pull" to openmicroblogger.com

Probably will be able to finish in the next few hours, if so you will see the commits, you should just be able to set your API key etc in config.yml and voila!

ok it works! for new signup/register so far

Great!

I created an facebook dev-account and created a new application. I copied the api-key etc. to config.yml.

But the button is not shown at login-page

Do I have to change some api settings at facebook, too?

on the Application Settings page

find the "Connect" tab

set the connect URL to http://tiquer.me/email_login

on that same "Connect" tab I set my "base domain" to

openmicroblogger.com but it's not necessary

I did upload some simple .png files too, but that's all I set up

in your config.yml you need to add "facebook" to the list of apps

Ah, okay. Works with Firefox and IE, Opera 10 doesn't load the image.

<a href="#" onclick="FB.Connect.requireSession(); return false;" >
  <img id="fb_login_image" src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/fbconnect/login-buttons/connect_light_medium_long.gif" alt="Connect"/>
</a>

Tried it with this code and it works. May I change it to this or are there any disadvantages?

just added FB-image fix and updated changelog with all you commits to V3.80b

as long as it works I have no objection :-)

Than wait a second! :P

hey now the button doesn't work with my Safari/omb.com !!

Hm, okay, lets change back to the old one...maybe its a opera bug. But generally its not w3c conform

I'm glad that you test things with Opera, I would very much like to be compatible.

Maybe for a few items we will have to detect the browser?

I admit that my Safari is a little bit old so it's probably part of the problem.

Now it's getting tricky. I think it is because I set "openbasedir none" to resolve the login-bug. But only an idea, I didn't try it up to now. will do that later and report.

just pushed a fix

Okay, the second one works fine.

But if I try to register a new user (on a clean installation) I get:

Sorry, that nickname is already being used.
Fatal error in line 155 of file /var/www/vhosts/tiquer.me/subdomains/omb/httpdocs/app/omb/controllers/identities.php

I'm trying to find the correct settings to make facebook connect work I have so far added the apikey, secret, appname, app id in the config file, I used mysite.com/?email_login button shows but when try to connect nothing happens the popup shows up from face book but that's it... So what are the correct configurations I need to put in the facebook app.... Thanks

Hey Chris, thanks for reporting your bugs. Did you get Zeep Mobile to work?

To set up your site on Facebook you just need to go to the Connect tab of your Application Settings

It sounds like you have set it up correctly, if you were using Pretty URLs then your Connect URL would be http://yoursite.com/email_login but with the default URLs it would be http://yoursite.com/?email_login

I'm posting a new download right now, you can download it in the next few minutes here, it should fix the issue you are seeing, let me know.

Thanks

Johannes, you are doing a clean install, registering as an admin, and then trying to register with Facebook Connect and you get that nickname error?

Brian thanks ... but where do i find my Connect tab for my Application settings

http://www.facebook.com/developers/apps.php

click "Edit Settings"

click "Connect"

Brian thanks again will try that ... Another question how do I set pretty urls

///////////////////////////// // use pretty URLs (optional) /////////////////////////////

To enable pretty URLs:

1) edit config.php (or config/config.php if you used Web installer)

2) change the 2 lines at the bottom of config.php

// global $pretty_url_base;
// $pretty_url_base = "http://openmicroblogger.com";

[[ change the 2 lines like this ]]

global $pretty_url_base;
$pretty_url_base = "http://yoursite.com";

3) copy the file /resource/prettyurls/.htaccess to the top level folder

3a) change the first line of .htaccess from "off" to "on"

4) change these 2 lines in .htaccess

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.openmicroblogger.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://openmicroblogger.com/$1 [R=301,L]

[[ change the 2 lines like this ]]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.yoursite.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

5) if you need to use [www.]yoursite.com or [blog.]yoursite.com ]]

[[ then just use this 1 line in your.htaccess ]]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://blah.yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Fatal error in line 507 of file /home/xxxxx/public_html/app/omb/plugins/omb.php

should be fixed now http://dbscript.net/omb.zip

which file should I change I have to keep re-uploading and over writing all my changes then re change them... thanks

db/library/dbscript/mapper.php

Brian, I started from scratch, also deleted browser-cache. I tried it twice, but always the same. You can try at omb.tiquer.me

I hadn't a profile-picture in my facebook account and got the error. Now I have added a facebook profile-picture and it works.

Hey Chris,
you have so many good Ideas. Great!
Could you create new Tickets for every new Idea or Issue and add successional ideas to existing Tickets? If everything is in one Ticket it becomes very confusing.

Thank you and keep on posting new suggestions :-)

EDIT:

I moved your ideas/requests to this Tickets:

#93 Feature Request: User profile background customization

#94 Feature Request: Set Photo-size in admin-menu

#75 P2 Theme Update

Johannes Thanks.... I will continue to share my ideas to help further develop this platform

Brian or Johannes does anyone know where I can get Code Stylist I'm trying to use it to that photo wall app tutorial but there's no download at the Codestylist website. I'm trying to accomplish having users upload photos to a tribute wall.

@chrislace code stylist has been on the backburner as you can see, but I will test and update the Photo Wall app and get back to you

Facebook found a solution. The button now works in Opera, too :)
