Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Manuel Molina Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 This is what the invision community guide says on how to configure facebook login ... But facebook process is completely different, it is giving me an SDk for javascript. Is theere a place with clear instructions on how to connect Invision for facebook and twitter login and sharing? I am interested in the social media promotional functionality Ravion 1
Grafidea Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 The facebook interface has changed a bit. It's nice if the IPS team updated this article. Ravion 1
Marc Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 I have added that to our list of items to update for you. What is it you are having issues with? Ravion 1
Manuel Molina Posted January 26, 2022 Author Posted January 26, 2022 I already managed to configure the facebook login button, but the promoting content part is very complicated to configure in facebook. I find instructions a little complex. Ravion 1
Marc Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 It is unfortunately complex to set up. There isnt really any way around that, as its facebooks requirements that are the issue Ravion 1

I assume I am missing something, but dunno what? Edited January 30, 2022 by IgorPec Ravion 1
Marc Posted January 31, 2022 Posted January 31, 2022 Are you working in developer mode on your facebook application? What issue is it you are having when you are trying to use it with other accounts? Ravion 1

Please try again. Error code: 2S119/1
IgorPec Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Also - after trying to login - inside Facebook app there is something: Most Active Endpoints Over Last 24 Hours Total Calls gr:get:User/permissions 2 gr:get:User 2 gr:get:User/picture 1
Marc Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 Have you checked your system logs to see what is showing up there?
My Sharona Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 I would appreciate an update to the guide as well.

I tried setting it up about a month ago and realized the interface was a bit different than what the guide laid out. I tried working it but kept falling into potholes along the road. I eventually set it aside after being frustrated for two days, as I felt it wasn't critical but rather a convenience thing for my members as a way to login or signup. I have to do quarterlies today but will circle back to it tomorrow and see where I experience issues. I will post here when I do. Thanks for the response.

Unfortunately its facebook changing things all the time that mean we are a little out of date, but we will have a new guide soon My Sharona 1

Unfortunately its facebook changing things all the time that mean we are a little out of date, but we will have a new guide soon I believe I am getting hung up in the same spot as the last time I tried to set it up. If I go to the default url for the site and click on, "Existing user? Sign In" or the "Sign Up" buttons at the top of the page and click on the "Sign in with Facebook" button, I get the following; I have added the site's main url to the "App domains" box. Not sure what is wrong but everything in the Facebook developers app settings looks to be right. All help appreciated.
Marc Posted March 17, 2022 Posted March 17, 2022 Try removing what you have in the allowed domains section entirely
Emediate Posted March 17, 2022 Posted March 17, 2022 We disabled this some time ago when FB changed things on their end, and accounts linked to our forum were having the display names changed to their real names randomly and automatically. It was quite concerning to the members, and us. I couldn't get to the bottom of it so we've left FB disabled ever since. Not even game to try and set it up again now. bradl 1

However, with the understanding gained from @Emediate's post above, I think I am going to let this go for now as well. Not all that important to begin with I don't think.

Can't have user id's changing to reflect real names, that is a non starter. May possibly revisit at a future point however. Edited March 23, 2022 by My Sharona
