[Forum] Explanation of the Facebook features?

[neal007]

Hello,

I don't fully understand everything facebook offers and I appreciate the integration in vB - it's great. Can you explain the purpose of the "f Connect" button on the top of the screen? What happens when a user clicks that?

I know the other facebook items such as with threads/posts which simply share those on their wall, correct?

Thank you.

It all depends on the options you set in AdminCP.

It can:

- allow new registrations without completing the normal registration process
- allows users to use their Facebook profile pic as their avatar and use their FB profile information as their profile info on your site
- allows users to be able to post thread/post, blog and CMS entry links onto their Facebook wall
- allows users to show 'liked' threads, blog and CMS entries on their Facebook wall
