Facebook connect keeps redirecting me to the registration page

Hi!

I've a small but annoying problem concerning Facebook login. I've just activated the Facebook connect module, filled it out properly with ID and secret code and now, when I want to sign in using the FB login icon (yes, it's visible), it shows me the FB popup, asking me for my credentials, and after it should resolve the email address together with my username (I guess) equal to my credentials on my site, which are the same on my board as well as on facebook, but instead it continues, exiting the FB login popup and says I'm a new user and should sign up (forumotion page). Now, that's annoying . Could someone pls explain why I can't bind the existing profile as an admin and founder of www.game-xtreme.com to my FB account?

Thanks in advance for the efforts!

EDIT: I've switched the feature off for the time being, for obvious reasons, but I still like to have a sound solution to the problem.

Did you associate your two accounts?

Your forum:
Profile > Preferences
Associate Account With Facebook

New members who use the Facebook Connect to register on your forum will not have to do this, old members will.

All it says there is:
Associate your Facebook account : Associate your Facebook account
There's no option, unfortunately.

It should be a blue button to press.

Unfortunately, there is none...

Edit: I need to go (sleep). Byes for now, ttyl (few hrs from now)...

Post a screenshot of the Facebook Connect page in the administration panel. Mark out the code parts.

Here you go...

Try using a different theme/skin. Sometimes a theme/skin has errors that causes the buttons to not work/show.

Yeah, right. Took me half a year to get this far to find a bug in a skin. Then, fix the bug in that skin. I'm not gonna change themes. It's Prosilver, default skin.

Could you send me a test account in a private message?

Done!

EDIT: Seen Runawayhorses' https://help.forumotion.com/t111631-2555-facebook-invite-not-loading . This has been an ongoing issue for half a year now, so it seems. Hint: Reliable sources say Forumotion needs to update the Facebook connector, since facebook.com has switched to a secure channel server environment. So, question is why wait so long for it to update?

I found a possible (plausable) solution to it: switch off the Ajax Profile tabs (JS) and you´ll probably be able to see the facebook connect again. Worked for me. Please close the ticket and respond to Runawayhorses and others in the other post about this solution. Thank you!

Samantha.

Which profile tabs are you referring to?

It's this JS:

$(function() {
'MIT License - Bilde Designs';
function init_ajax_profile_tabs() {
$('#<b style="color:#aa0000" class="coloradmin">tabs</b> li a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var href = this.href;
if (history.pushState) {
history.pushState(null, null, href);
}
$('#main-content').load(href +' #main-content', function() {
init_ajax_profile_tabs();
});
});
}
init_ajax_profile_tabs();
});

It's ruining a lot on my forum, that includes the Facebook controls.... The whole problem was gone after disabling this script...

Ok. So this is solved for you?

It is, except for the fact I could press the facebook invite once only, then it disappeared. Associating and disassociating FB now works properly and logging in through FB is fast.

The same confusion with mine actually. I'm desperate to get off from the hook. It's been 3 days finding the solution. All i need is just to click the facebook log-in and that's it. I have to avail the opportunity since this kind of feature is available already. Thanks.

did you add this script?

Hi Kirk, yes I did. It's Bilde's (Avacweb). I've switched it off, and the facebook plugin is visible and working now and associating is possible, however, the facebook invite doesn't work in the profile pages. That button was visible only once and one should expect it to load your friends list from Facebook, but it doesn't. Just that one time I clicked it, it was gone after.

SamanthaS I received your PM about how we had similar issues, and this is not the case for me as I do not use AJAX tabs from Blide
