Description of problem

I cannot get the Facebook log in button to work, I do not understand what details facebook need, please can someone help me, as I just want the option of Facebook log in for members if they want to use it.
Thanks

Hello

Did you read this tutorial about Facebook Connect? If you set up the option properly, could you please provide a screenshot so that we understand the problem.

Thanks

I have seen the tutorial but it is an old version and all the options on Facebook have changed, an updated version would be useful if possible. I will try and screenshot what I get.
Thanks

Exactly read this announcement:  https://help.forumotion.com/t140462-important-facebook-connect-update-for-forum-administrators .

I did see that but the application on Facebook already says the required API version as my forum is very new. As for the codes I really don't understand them so don't use them, I can work a computer well but that gets a little beyond me. Facebook has no help section and I think they make it too hard to sort out the application, this is a shame as it's one of the reasons I chose forum option for it FB log in option.

Did you create a Facebook app for Facebook Connect?

Yes that's what I've tried to do but when I submit it with Facebook it gets rejected as will not let them log in either. I don't know if I'm doing it right or not, it seems so complicated unfortunately.
Thanks

Hello

I've tried to registered to your forum via Facebook Connect and I managed to do it without problem:






Let us know what is wrong for you...

Oh well that's good news, I will ask a friend to try it, will it not let me as I'm the app developer? X

Try this:  

Profile > Preferences
Press the associate button for Facebook Connect.

Members before you activated Facebook Connect will need to do this.  New members will not have to do it.

Thank you for your help, asked two people to join and they have been able to log in with the Facebook app.

Did you read my post about you and members before you activated Facebook Connect?

Yes I did thank you, it's working, I cannot use it still despite doing preferences but then I'm not bothered as will log in as admin anyway. Thanks

No problem. Glad to help
