I just started working on Joomla! the other day. http://brandondavie.com/ :P

JIB.Auth (allows IPB users to sign into Joomla!) has been released as a beta. JIB.User (SSO, registers an IPB account when they register for J!, etc) beta 1 will be out today or tomorrow.

I'm for it, but then you'll have the people who want it to integrate with MySpace, hi5, or any other social networking site out there, just because it integrates with FaceBook and they'll feel like the dorky kid in 4th grade who was always picked last for the kickball team.

[quote name='Jimi Wikman' post='1779193' date='Jan 3 2009, 02:25 AM']A Facebook Connect feature could also tie into the members profiles and friendslists directly...
I for one is willing to pay for such a modification...

I have a dark side forum (vbulletin) and today ive installed a hack that allows people to register by using a facebook login, its good in the respect it doesnt reveal the users info (email address etc) but yet in can tie in a users profile pic to become an Avatar.

If anyone wants to try it visit

www.technodanceaphobic.com and click on the "Connect with Facebook" button on the right hand side.

I can see a big future for this kind of mod once its properly configured and support so im interested in see Bfarbers work when he gets around to it ;) .

EDIT: It also sends notifications off to facebook when a user is sent a PM and gives the option to publish a topic in a users wall posts on facebook etc, it also makes members who are friends on facebook it also makes them friends in the forum too.

Looks like alot of people are having success with the FB Connect feature. This site had over 58% new visitors signing up for it using FBConnect:

Also according to this article under number FBConnect is doing very well:

This company dropped OpenID:

IPB or someone should look into getting FB Connect to work with IPB as it seems to be a lot more successful then OpenID.

[quote name='princetontiger' post='1780012' date='Jan 8 2009, 06:01 PM']You can do this with a mod for vB... only problem is, I don't believe you can ban users...

facebook is everything openid wishes it was...

I can test this (having a Vb board!)

I will edit this post with results!

Please link your forum account with the client area account in the client area and then post in the propper section. :)
