I’m using this great plug-in on my site. Actually, task is user can post idea to our site and they can invite fb friends to voting on their idea. So I need data to be submitted when I click on ‘Send Invitation’ button. Please reply me is their any solution for this. Thanks.

Every thing is okay as the contacts are coming on page , but when the “Send button is clicked, another window opens and lastly the page says ”
“The page you requested was not found
You may have clicked an expired link or mistyped the address. Some web addresses are case sensitive.
Return home
Go back to the previous page”

Where is ERROR ?

You are also requested to elaborate if the page has no lines like the one you suggested above , what should be done so that those lines appear.

Hey this is a brilliant template/tool !! Thanks so much for developing this. I’m wondering whether a small tweak is possible. Right now, when you invite a friend, it doesn’t really show on the invitee’s notifications, nor does it display prominently on the invitee’s news feed/wall. Is there any way to post the invite on the invitee’s wall? Or to make it a private message?
Thanks a bunch!!

I think there is a javascript error with Buddypress, if you have buddypress, this might be the error…

Thanks for the info! I recently installed WP-FB-AutoConnect to my WP install. It was the only plugin that I found was compatible with BuddyPress.

I wonder if this is sufficient to use your theme template? What information does your tmeplate need? I guess I’ll find out when I take a look at your code.

Thanks again!

Siin, that app is a custom Facebook app that I wrote that reads my WP database directly for the recent news. Its not loading my actual website at all. That feature in the FB Connect plugin doesn’t seem to work, at least not in v2.0.2 which is what I’m running. If WP Book works reasonably well for you, you might want to just keep that for now.

I did make some pretty significant enhancements and additions, but I’m hoping the original author will work with me. However, I noticed references to a “pro” version in his code. I think he’s planning on selling a more robust version. You should have the feature to update Facebook status… at least it was in version 2.0.2, which I’m running. The Facebook wall is definitely the biggest thing I added, but I’m not ready to release it and I also believe that’s one of the things the original author is going to have in his “pro” version.

Hi,
I just installed sociable plugin and it works great. But I am not getting ‘change facebook status’ and ‘view facebook wall’ features as in your site. I think your sites has some cool facebook features. Can you kindly let me know where can I get the code for the facebook features in your site?

regards,
Davidson.

I’m actually logged in to your site and I can invite friends. Its mainly the FB Connect widget that isn’t working. It looks like you might have two different plugins loading two different versions of jquery and/or thickbox.js. I would try disabling more plugins and maybe even try loading the default WP theme. Your issue is likely some sort of conflict and likely related to javascript.

i already removed the plugin and also deactivated the tool bar just to make sure but the problem still exist, i tried to login using my friends facebook account after i removed the plugin thats causing the problem but still nothing happens the avatar wont show next to my avatar.

Siin, check out the javascript error on your site. Its an error in prototype.js, which is not part of Facebook Connect. Once a javascript error happens, then no other javascript will run on the page. So its some other plugin that is causing the problem.

Thanks for trying out my code. Does the Facebook Connect plugin itself work? Can people log in and you see your Facebook profile pic on your site? If all that is working, then you should be able to enable the invitation page as follows:

1. Upload the template file (page-fbinvites.php) to your theme directory
2. Create a new page in WordPress and select “Page – Facebook Invites” as the Template.

Also, view the source on your page and make sure that you have something at the top on the line like this: xmlns:fb=”http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml”.

Check that you have something toward the bottom of the page like this:
FB_RequireFeatures(["XFBML"], function() {
FB.init(“12345678901234567890123456789012″, “http://xtremelysocial.com/wp-content/plugins/fbconnect-xs/xd_receiver.htm”);

Those lines should be added by the Facebook Connect plugin itself. If you don’t have lines like those, then the plugin isn’t working.
