[...] thing about it is that it doesn’t change anything in the database or add any users. Plugin author Thorsten Ott credits Beau Lebens for the initial idea, and you can visit his site for a more technical [...]

Thanks to all for pointing me to this and sending over the feedback. I am currently trying to evaluate under which conditions this error occurs and why it did not occur for me yet. This will be the main subject of the next release which I hope to fire out in the coming week.

Facebook avatars only showing up on being logged in seems a little weird. I will look into this and fix this in one of the next versions if needed.

I get the same thing when I click the save changes button this is the error that I get,
Fatal error: Call to undefined function check_admin_referer() in /home/thess/public_html/wp-content/plugins/faux-facebook-connect/faux-facebook-connect.php on line 121

Update: I fixed the display issues by editing my theme’s css (and also had to edit a bit of the faux-facebook css)

Still wondering if it’s normal that FB avatars only display if you’re logged into FB. It would be nice if they’d always display even if you’re not a FB member or logged in.

I’m having the same issues as Murat. Had to comment out the check_admin_referer() function (I’m on WP 2.9).

Also having major issues with the layout of the avatars:

Lastly — is it normal that the FB avatars don’t come through until you actually do a FBConnect session? (otherwise you just see fb icons/placeholders)

Thanks for this plugin!

Templates bundles developer feature has been depreciated by Facebook.

http://developers.facebook.com/tools.php?feed

“Facebook will deprecate template bundles and their related API calls December 20, 2009.

Please start using stream attachments with stream.publish, FB.Connect.streamPublish, and Facebook.streamPublish instead.”

Sorry for the comment spam.

Any idea how to change the ‘connect’ button? I wanted to use the longer version

I followed Imbads suggestion and it works if you comment it out. The only problem is with the avatar, it scales to fit my avatar size on the template rather than just cropping nicely like on other blogs
