Ecommerce developers with Magento

any chance making this extension comaptible with magento 1.3 as well? I am still running 1.3.2.4

Very useful extension for magento! I try it! Thanks for sharing!

Ok, the solution is to create a 301 redirect so that when uses type your domain name without the www then the browser redirects them to http://www.yourdomain.co.za and then your facebook connect app will work.

Creating two apps in facebook will not work due the the api and secret keys being unique for each app and hence each domain.

Post emended : The post was supposed to read: “So unless I am missing something you might have to setup a 301 redirect for that domain, to point the http://domainexample.co.za to http://www.domainexample.co.za (not sure if it will work though) or you will need to setup two apps with each version of your domains address.”

Thanks for the picking up the mistake.

Hi guys, nice work for this module, saved me a lot of time

Guilio, I have the same issue with 1.3.2.4, I’m checking whether the install was executed. It was, because a new record has been inserted in core_resource (facebook_setup)

But customer and eav tables don’t contain the new “facebook_uid” attribute. So maybe we have to manually insert the right data at the right place now…

is there any sample or live site where i can see this plug-in in action

@M.Richard

Where exactly did you place the two lines of code in the register.phtml file. I am still getting the same error.

Thanks

ok i did it,but how can i drawit the “connect with facebook”.

I’m working on it to pick up address information from Facebook profile and automatically create a billing address in Magento to simplify checkout

Got this extension working in Magento 1.3.2.4. After receiving the facebook_uid attribute not found error, and alot of back and forward emails between myself and @M.Richard, I manually added the attribute to my database by exporting the required attribute data from my Magento 1.4.0.1 Test store, (after installing the extension their first) and then importing it to the eav_attribute table in my database.

Works perfectly now.

Now just need to figure out how to change the button and the text at the top to use the facebook connect buttons.

Really looking forward to using this. Now to convince clients that they should use Facebook comments instead of the main Magento reviews (or both).

Guilio Del Fava i know this,i enter my domain but nothing,i follow all steps.i read many articles about this error,i will try again.:(

Extension has just been updated to work with 1.3.2.x versions of Magento.

Please note that extensions template and layout files have been moved from
app/design/frontend/base/default to
app/design/frontend/default/default
to be compatible with older versions.

Awesome, Ivan! Works smoothly. Thanks for releasing this for free, much appreciated. Thanks too, since we’ve been waiting on Mark to fix the bugs in his extension that costs $100!

Anyone else experiencing issues with Chrome and not being able to login using “Connect with Facebook” in the account login page? (happening on two, independent sites)

Is it working on 1.4 version ? i installed but something is error .
could anyone help me to that
Thank you

@Tuppi Sau: You can test it in local environment, but there are some limitations. Whatever is accepted on Facebook as Connect URL will work.

http://localhost/ or similar won’t work
http://192.168.0.105/ works
http://127.0.0.1/ never tried

But you can always setup virtual host on your local server like
http://www.example.com ,it will work also.

And just enter example.com or similar for Email Domain in Facebook settings.

I hope this helps. Good question btw

@Michael_James The base folder is your app folder in the root directory. Follow the folder paths on your site just as they are in the download directory structure. Once you get to a directory that is showing on the download, but not your site’s folder, drag a copy of the download into the parent directory on your live site.

you re the best, thanks more than a biillion for sharing !!

Great work Ivan. Thank you!

a sad primjedbe…sitne su
- Ako se modul u backend Configuration-Advanced deaktivira i dalje se vidi link “Connect to Facebook”

- Link “Connect to Facebook” ne mjenja status kao npr. “Log In Log Out”

Bilo bi super kad bi:
+ nakon kupnje, automatski korisniku poslat wall-post “hvala na kupovini”…

+ da korisnik moze vidit kad se logira u magento, koji od njegovih prijatelja su takoder u magento registrirani a koji nisu, te da ih moze pozvat (invite friends)

Modul je odlican kao i sve ostale postove sto sam citao na Inchoo!
Pozdrav!

@D.B. Thank you. I’ll translate above comments for other readers that might be interested

- If you disable module under Configuration-Advanced, the “Connect to Facebook” link is still displayed
It’s noted and I’ll probably add this in one of the future versions

- link “Connect to Facebook” doesn’t change status, like for example “Log In Log Out”
This is a feature, not a bug. If customer is logged in in Magento and click Facebook connect, his Magento account will be automatically associated with his Facebook account.

- it would be great to automatically send wall-post “Thanks for buying” to customer after shopping
- it would be great that customer can see after login which of its friends are also registered in Magento and to invite the ones that aren’t
We’ll see what we’ll add or change in future versions. All ideas are appreciated, just keep them coming !!

@Tuppi Sau: We’re preparing Magento Connect release, it should be available soon.

@charobnjak

We checked your link, great store, we’re always glad to see Magento used in our region. Translation is great!

@Ivan: I just added some code for retrieving friends uid list. We can display only friends who have an account in Magento by checking their e-mail addresses, but for that we have to call the users.getInfo for each friend, and Facebook API is sometimes slow when u have to retrieve like 200 friends !

Maybe we could store uid in Magento customer account for faster response… But is it legal to store Facebook uid in Magento DB ?

Tuppi,

You could hide the link to the logged-in users, but you might wish previously existing users to be able to connect their accounts with Facebook (users that are registered but not with Facebook Connect).

hi there, this module is really well done, thanks for sharing.
I ve seen an “issue” but it’s not a real issue and maybe somebody noticed it.

in the example provided with the module, and the frontend

Connect with Facebook

but actually this code doesnt work because of the span tag.

the event “click” catches a click but
e.element().tagName = “span” and not “button”

just to fix it, remove the span tag (apply a css if needed)

otherwise, really good !
i ve been through the feature to get all friends registered in the website.
for those who want to hide “connect with facebook”, the best thing to do is to hide it in the menu and make a button with facebook icon, then disable it when not needed.
Cheers, thx inchoo !
eddi

Thanks Toni,
But I wanted to say that, when the user account is already associated with the facebook connect, it may be wise to hide the menu. Anyway, that’s not the big deal since I can do it on my own.

I have another question, may be everyone is waiting for the next version of this module. For now, all it does is; it associates the user account at magento store(s) to their facebook account or we may say it allows for quick registration and login to users who have their facebook account. But, is it possible that in the next version user(s) from the magento store(s) can allow the site to publish their purchase history and customers will have the option to automatically tell friends about their purchases. They can choose to have/not have their purchase details displayed on their Facebook wall.

Just curious.

I’m getting the following errors now;

When I try to go to http://blackcyclemama.com/facebook, I get a blank page. I’ve tried to understand the comments above regarding the 301 redirect— could that be the problem?

Thanks. I had to uninstall the Magestore_Facebook module for it to work. Disabling it didn’t do the job.

Tried the module today, but can’t get it to work.
When I press “Connect with Facebook” on the top-links, I get: “Facebook Connection failed.” and the “Connect with Facebook”-button on the login-page doesn’t work at all (can’t even click it)..

What have I done wrong? I think I have filled all required fields on the Facebook-app page.

I’d love to make this module work!

hello, i tried this module but don’t work for me.
I see in facebook app there isn’t field ‘email domain’ in tabs advanced.
In magento i’m using a package name: ‘elegant’, so in facebook module’s folder tree i change
app->design->frontend->default->deafult
to
app->design->frontend->elegant->deafult
is it correct?

But facebook connect don’t work.

Can someone help me?
Thanks

I tried to install this extension with magento 1.4.0.1, it always give me an error “Facebook Connection failed. Service temporarily unavailable.”

Please can someone help me?

Hello , this extension is great , how can we map more data like user birthday into customer account ?

Great extension for magento! I was seeing the code and is very useful. I integrated perfect with my website.
Congrats! continue with the next release and Thanks for sharing! =)

Thanks for a terrific extension. Installed with no problem!

Now I’m trying to figure out how to add a class to the Facebook Connect link so I can replace it with a recognized Facebook Connect image.

ok, one more time …

a rel=”facebook-connect” class=”fb_button fb_button_medium” div class=”fb_button_text” Connect with Facebook /div /a

I would also like to know how to style the button with my own image. Any help would be so great.
Can someone pls share an example

Hi,
I have used the fantastic extension and it was working great, but from today moring it started giving “Incorrect Sigtnture” Error from facebook..
Any Idea??

Hi,

Anyone got changed the button to original facebook connect button ?

Regards

Yes Vijay,

You can change the original FBC button with background style

button rel=”facebook-connect” class=”form-button” type=”submit” style=”background-image: url(‘http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/fbconnect/login-buttons/connect_light_medium_short.gif’);”

And add more css attributes for better apparence

Oh Vijay, the front code is only html and css to show the button styled. But no PHP.

Thanks for the great plugin. The “add to wishlist” does not work if you were not logged in and choose the “connect to facebook”. Also not on your demo site it seems. You will get on the account page without the article in your wishlist.

Is that a known issue maybe?

Thanks for any help.
