Facebook integration

[fredclarkjr]

It seem that with the facebook integration you can easily get from the forum to facebook or "Like" something on the forum, but can you get from your Facebook account to the forum your linked with (where is that found)? Also, is there a place where they have condensed all the facebook integration features?

Is it a good idea to link my admin account to my facebook account if I want to remain anonymous? I will be clicking the 'Like' and 'Share' buttons etc.

What's the clearest way to show people that only facebook registration / login is required on my site? Most of my users are 50+ years old.
I need to have ONLY facebook registration and login, so long as there are no drawbacks.

There is a default notice that shows up for unregistered guests only. Go into your Notice Manager, and change the text of that notice to say whatever you want. All unregistered visitors will see that at the top of every page, so tell them all they need is to log in with their Facebook account there.

'Sorry, that facebook account is already associated with a different user.'

I've signed up to one of my other accounts with facebook already. How do I unlink my facebook account from paulnicholson and link it to admin instead?

Can users still add profile details such as avatars using ONLY a facebook registration? Also, should I include security checks to stop spambots or make it an easy two click process?

Click on 'Settings' at the top of the page, then the 'Edit Connections' link in the My Settings > My Account menu and you'll see a 'disconnect' button.

Yes, all the FB registration does is pull the information from Facebook into your own database. Once registered, they have the same rights as every other registered user (unless you have them registered to a separate usergroup with different permissions).
