Facebook Connect Magento Extension
This is free Facebook Connect Magento extension which enables customers fast and easy registration and login with their Facebook identity.
This extension isn’t actively updated anymore. For newer Magento you can use separate Social Connect Magento extension from my coworker Marko Martinovic, Inchoo.
Important
Facebook updated it’s authentication mechanism but so did we, so please update your extension to the newest version since older versions won’t work anymore.
Also, if you’re getting “An error occurred. Please try again later.” message in connect popup, you need to get new “App ID/API Key” from Facebook and enter it into Magento. Check your Application Secret along the way.
Download
Download Inchoo_Facebook-0.9.9.zip, extract files to appropriate place following directory structure and reload cache.
Latest pre-relase versions can always be downloaded on my github project page.
About
Facebook Connect Magento extension enables customers one click registration and login with their Facebook identity. It automatically registers new users and logs in existing ones.
Current extension is compatible with latest Magento CE 1.6, but also with older 1.5, 1.4 and 1.3.2.x versions. It’s using brand new Facebook thingies like open graph protocol and open source JavaScript SDK.
If you’re interested to see additional languages in future releases, help us translate it by following instructions.
Facebook App
For Facebook Connect to work you need to Setup Application on Facebook and obtain its App ID/API Key and Application Secret.
Use your store name as application name and read and accept terms of service. On second screen set App Domain and Site URL(under checked Web Site tab), both to the store domain where you plan to implement Facebook Connect. Save Changes. Other Connect settings are optional, but you might want to add store logo for example.
Magento Setup
Once you obtain two keys navigate to Magento Administration, copy/paste them to appropriate fields under Configuration->Customer->Facebook Connect, set Enabled to Yes and you’re good to go. If you’re updating from previous releases, you also need to Enable it to work.
Default template files (frontend/default/default/template/facebook/*) and layout (layout/facebook.xml) makes Facebook Connect work out of the box with default theme, but we tried to make customizations as easy as possible so all you need to do is add button or link with “facebook-connect” rel attribute set anywhere in the theme, static block or cms page, for example:
<button rel=”facebook-connect” class=”form-button” type=”submit”><span>Connect with Facebook</span></button>
<a rel=”facebook-connect”>Connect with Facebook</a>
Latest Changes
v.0.9.9
– Client and javascript compatible with new Facebook authentication changes.
– Event.fire changed to document object to avoid javascript conflicts.
– Asking for user_birthday permission from now on.
– Norwegian translation added thanks to Magnus Alexander.
v.0.9.8
– Version fix, licenses added, connect release.
v.0.9.7
– Estonian, Swedish, Czech, Turkish and Korean translations added thanks to Sir Mull, Andreas Karlsson, Pavel Hrdlicka, ea and COBAY.

Facebook and Google login not working on checkout page .
Hello guys,
Can solve 90% of the problem
:
He made the following changes:
Replacing the 86 line of the file:
app \ code \ community \ Inchoo \ Facebook \ controllers \ Customer \ AccountController.php
With this code:
$ StandardInfo = $ this -> _ getSession () -> getClient () -> call (“/ me”, array ( ‘fields’ => array (’email’, ‘first_name’, ‘last_name’, ‘gender’)) );
Replacing the 152 and 198 line of the file:
app \ code \ community \ Inchoo \ Facebook \ Model \ Client.php
“SetParameterPost” to “setRawData”
And in the file:
app \ design \ frontend \ rwd \ default \ template \ facebook \ init.phtml
I added the script from the beginning:
jQuery.noConflict ();
After making these changes the following happens:
1- click connect with facebook
2 appears the phrase “Failed to connect to Facebook”
3 But if I click again login works
4 So to solve my problem for now I changed the phrase “Failed to connect to Facebook” to “connection is established, click CONNECT WITH FACEBOOK to login”
Hugs,
Fernando
But tests performed and sometimes need to click more than 5 times for the connection to work, what do you connect with only one click?
When I am using your app on my Magento 1.9, getting this error when trying to login using facebook :
“Facebook profile can’t provide all required info, please register and then connect with Facebook for fast login.
Please make sure your passwords match.”
need help.
If anyone is still having trouble with the error “Facebook connection failed. Email address is required.”. Find the line 86 in AccountController.php and replace it with $standardInfo = $this->_getSession()->getClient()->call(“/me”, array(‘fields’=>array(’email’, ‘first_name’, ‘last_name’, ‘gender’)));
very good ! its right.

How to redirect to homepage after login.
I managed to redirect to homepage after login for default Magento login, but not for this facebook connect.

Well after sharing this extension you have set competition high as the developers like us who are offering this extension gotta improve it to justify the price. I have added 3 more login options in my extension along with Facebook which are Twitter, Yahoo and Gmail login. Let me know how do you rate this extension?

facebook connect is not working with Netzarbeiter customer activation module
Hello Ivan i would like to know if version 0.9.9 is working with magento version 1.8.1.0? Thank you for your time and help?
Hello all,
Small security bugfix of the extension was just released.
I strongly suggest that developers check my last Github commit. If you’re using 0.9.9 version from this page, just re-download zip and deploy, it’s patched.
Greets to Patrick for reporting the problem. Even though extension isn’t maintained anymore, I’m told that extension and parts of the code are still used here and there, so we did our best to help out.
Regards,
Ivan
Hi guys,
If you’re getting the “Facebook connection failed. Service temporarily unavailable.” on Magento 1.9 you need to edit the “app/code/community/Inchoo/Facebook/Model/Client.php” file and replace the “setParameterPost” with “setRawData”.
It should be on lines 152 and 198.
Cheers!
very good! ths
Your awesome! It worked, Thanks!

I cant seem to fix it
For those who are facing the “Fail to connect to facebook” problem:
Add on the first line of /app/design/frontend/yourtheme/default/template/facebook/init.phtml:
jQuery.noConflict();
AND in /js/ search for js-1.x.x.min.js and add at the last line, to the bottom:
jQuery.noConflict();
This is a conflict with other modules or even your own template that uses jquery also.

This is working awesome in my localhost machine, how this facebook login include in the checkout pages like your google connect plugin. or i have to just paste that button code in my check out pages.
This is not working properly in Magento CE 1.7.0.2.
after login with facebook it is not redirecting to another page and entry is not made in magento. i mean to say after facebook login it does not login from magento.
Works fine on Magento CE 1.7.0.2.
We’re testing this extension in our dev environment. I went through the process of installing with no problems, added the ID and secret key in config and even added var jQuery.noConflict(); to the init.phtml file and it is still not working. is not being rendered on the page that I can see. Any ideas?
Hi..
First of all thanks for this lovely extension.i am wandering that if somehow i able to get profile pic from facebook and display it at home page.Hope you will help me.
Thanks in advance!
Ivan, or anyone,
Unfortunately I’ve had to uninstall this great extension. I have succesfully removed all extension files from the server, but I also want to remove all changes that were made to the database.
I already removed the attribute [b]’facebook_uid'[/b] from the table ‘eav_attribute’. Does this extension make more changes to the database or is this all?
Thanks in advance!
Thank’s for this post.
Any demo site available?
Hi,
Can somebody help me, i installed this app it’s working with default theme, custom theme doesn’t work, please help me!!! What i’m doing wrong??? :(((
Enjoyed using it.
worked in a single go.
How to display the customer’s name in place of the “Connect with Facebook” after connected.
This worked out of the box on my site. I’ve been trying to get a Facebook login button to work for a while and thought I was going to have to figure it out from scratch but this module works great. I just had to fix my button (but it worked) –I was going to customize it anyway.
Thanks
Oh by the way I have Magento ver. 1.7.0.2
Great extension. Our FB Connect button stopped rendering a few days ago. I assume FB has changed something? The connect link still works great but there’s no graphical button, just a hyperlink. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks.
Work great, only thing is if the extension give us a chance to customize the button connect then it will be perfect. For example it will support 10 buttons connect template and we can choose one to match with our template. Thanks
@umair
the file path to “init.phtml” is “/app/design/frontend/default/default/template/facebook”
a added ” jQuery.noConflict();” and it worked!
Does it works on EE 1.12?
Does it work with magento 1.7?
