Facebook Connect for previously registered members

So I just activated the facebook connect thing. Can users that have already registered connect, or do you have to make a new account?

well they use the fb app and log in and then it redirects them toa page where they just need to set their pass,email and username and click submit and then they get logged in...basically need to make a account

So you have to make a new account to have Facebook Connect functional? If that's the case I'll have to just disable it...no way I'm making 50+ people re-register.

For members who were registered before you turned on this feature, they need to go to their profiles and look on the preference page. There is a option to connect their two accounts (Their Facebook accounts and their accounts on your forum).
