You may now link your account to Facebook properly.
The facebook icon will appear in the upper right corner.

When linked you can make use of the facebook integrated features such as sending your threads/replies/blogs straight to your facebook page, liking various forum elements and probably other features I've forgotten but it'll be sure to remind you of.

You can either perform the link from the Connect button up or Add/Edit the link from your Settings page under Edit Connections.

*Note there seem to be some quirks in how some browsers behave with the features. Opera in particular doesn't like to acknowledge you're logged in but still gives you all the features while Chrome seems to be fine.

It's actually not using 90% of that. It has an auto-import feature where I can automatically link the bio fields there to user fields here but they're all turned off.
I think the only thing it'd actually do is show your picture to you, show your likes to others, and let you post to it.

Linked. Why not?

It seems like there's no padding to the left of the thing in the top right, so the image is on top of the Notifications arrow.

Pretty sure it's intended. Like an icon overlay.

Yep. Behaves the exact same way on the vBulletin forums, thought so.
It's "trendy".

I pressed the connect button, then FB asked me for permission and then it got stuck there.

No, the image that appears when linked is covering up the notifications link.

I didn't mean the Facebook logo on top of the userpic, I'm talking about the entire button being on top of the Notifications(arrow) arrow. On vB forums, it's to the left of the entire bar so it doesn't interfere.

What browser? It doesn't do that on Chrome and Opera won't even acknowledge the Connect button as Rob has apparently discovered.

This is on Chrome.

Oh, it's Opera the problem then? :^|

Yep. Opera is really really bizarre with whatever code they're using to do the DHTML and AJAX.
I had to hop to Chrome to do the link then most of the features work in Opera but it won't show any of my verification pics.


This is on Chrome.


I moved it to where it shows up on the vBulletin site.

Everytime I click on the Connect to facebook button, I get sent back to the main page.

I use Firefox 4b10, if that helps.

EDIT: Nevermind, I dug into my No Script settings and allowed facebook.net.

Any idea how do I fix this? It was working fine the other day. (This is Google Chrome).

Every time I hit connect I get a popup which contains

.app_content_51546247891 a.uiLinkSubtle { display: none; }
.app_content_51546247891 a.UIImageBlock_ICON_Image { display: none; }


#bootloader_Zvucx { height: 42px; }

Nope. Best guess is you did something.
