I couldn't help but notice that FB connect is now activated as à signin option on askbot.com. Is this in the latest release?

Hmm, on this domain it is activated, but is not working for some reason right now - just tested... Some of these social network logins occasionally come and go, we need to work more on this to figure out the reason.

Yeah, I noticed with the last update that Facebook all of sudden was present as a login method. It seems as it's not working. Did you try out the javascript version of fb connecct?

I notice it's not working on this site, nor is facebook working on the site we set up. Did something change on their end?

This must be a bug in the protocol use on our end.

This is a very significant issue - particularly since Gravitar is the only other way to get profile photos (not really elegant at all). I'm sure you have a lot on your place, but can you please prioritize the fix for the Facebook login?

Hi.

Facebook connect have been there for a while also twitter, identica and other social networks too, to enable it you need to create a facebook app and get the API key and secret key in the settings to make it work.
