Facebook Connect update for forum Administrators

Hello Dear Members, All forum administrators who have set up the Facebook Connect module, can update the current version of the App.  From April 30th 2015, the old version will no longer work. Therefore, you have to reset the Facebook App, so that the Facebook Connect Module works properly (at least to version v2.2). We made our best to update the whole option so that the option still work properly on your forum. However, we had some other urgent updates to send today (transparent for you but essential for the good work of your forum) That's why, we cannot send all Facebook modifications today... By consequences, Facebook connect for new members (registration via Facebook) won't work for few days. Once all other updates over, we'll modify it. Meanwhile, you can start modifying the API by following our instructions: 1. Update your Facebook connect App To verify, please enter Facebook Developers (in connected mode) and click on "my Apps": Then, look at your version: OK  OK   If your version is already v2.2, your Facebook Connect will still work, but we highly recommend you to switch to the V2.3 If your version is still v1.0, you've to delete it and reset the App. Let's find our Facebook Connect Tutorial 2. Templates modifications (All forum versions) If you have personalized your forum templates you have to make the following changes: index_body.tpl Replace the block : Code: <fb:login-button size="large" onlogin="window.location='/facebook_connect.forum'" v="2" scope="{switch_user_login_form_footer.switch_fb_connect.L_FB_PERMISSIONS}">{switch_user_login_form_footer.switch_fb_connect.L_FB_LOGIN_BUTTON}</fb:login-button> By : Code: <fb:login-button size="large" onlogin="window.location='/facebook_connect.forum'" scope="{switch_user_login_form_footer.switch_fb_connect.L_FB_PERMISSIONS}">{switch_user_login_form_footer.switch_fb_connect.L_FB_LOGIN_BUTTON}</fb:login-button> Replace the block : Code: <!-- BEGIN switch_fb_index_login --> <div id="fb-root"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ FB.init({  appId: '{switch_fb_index_login.FACEBOOK_APP_ID}',  status: true,  cookie: true,  xfbml: true,  oauth: true });

A Forumotion Important Announcement

[Stephen-]

Thanks! @Buttercup Forumotion keeps gettin better and better.

[tugatech]

@Buttercup , nice to see this.
But, for itself, this doesn't solve the issue.

You "fb_login.js" file, responsible for the login, is still with outdated code. 
This change will help forum owners to change to the new API, but the Facebook connect will still be broken if nothing change in the javascript above...

Also, the changes described in this announce will also break the login in any forumotion website, becouse (again) of the outdated code in the fb_login javascript...
Will the javascript be updated as well?

(I have read again the text.  )

Thanks
