Linking my website with Facebook - a first test
THIS IS A TEST OF THE FACEBOOK/DRUPAL CONNECTION
So, I'm trying to figure out if this darned Drupal Facebook Module will allow me to connect my main login information with Facebook. If this works then this will appear on Facebook.
If this doesn't work then I am going to sulk and write bum on the windows.
The documentation says:
With Drupal for Facebook, you can harness all the power of Drupal in you Facebook App. If you already have content in Drupal, you can expose it on Facebook.
The Drupal for Facebook philosophy is that the functionality already built into Drupal should be used to create Facebook Applications. Where possible, we use Drupal's user management, permission schemes, blocks, views, etc. to implement the Facebook App. Experienced Drupal users will find it very straightforward to build a Facebook App. While Facebook developers new to Drupal may want to spend some time on Drupal.org learning best practices.
Drupal for Facebook contains several sub-modules. Enable just those that you need. For example if you need Facebook Connect, enable fb_connect.module; Canvas Pages, fb_canvas.module; wall posts and status updates, the fb_stream.module; and so on...

fbstarter.com
In this generation wherein internet and its language almost took over the whole interactive sector, internet seems to be the medium of communication and networking. Look out for fbstarter.com. The website fbstarter.com is a password mining scam, set up to look exactly like Facebook, but they're really a site that's after your e-mail account and passwords. How it works is that you get an email message claiming that someone has a message for you on Facebook. You open it and log in to a page that looks exactly like Facebook, and then – presto – they have your information, and you have been phished. So far there hasn't been a lot of damage, no credit cards used nor loans needed to contain the damage, but a lot of people are understandably not amused, and a lot of people would use short term loans to get rid of the parasitic fbstarter.com.
thank you
Many thanks for your tutorial,but I don't know why it doesn't work on my website WebmfsterClip ,user can't login with their facebook account :( , any way,I will try to configure the mudoles again.
First of all - remember the
First of all - remember the Drupal FBCONNECT module is still in Beta (as at today May 2009) so check back frequently to find the latest version http://drupal.org/project/fbconnect ;)
This might help - When you first install FB-Connect and set it up.... in the same browser that your looking at your website... try opening a new tab and logging into your facebook account, while your logged in then switch to a tab and use the FACEBOOK login on your drupal account.... this works every time and will help get your 'brain' around what the FBCONNECT login looks like.
I'm not one of the FBCONNECT developers - I just think it's quite neat
Good Luck!

Delete the Drupal Nodes or just UNPUBLISH them, I guess? Is that what you mean?
