Facebook not working at all on my vbulletin 4 site - what do I do???

**GasMan320** · Tue 18 Sep '12, 7:29pm

Can we see your site?

If you have vBSEO or any .htaccess URL rewrites can you disable both and then try?

Yes it has vbseo could that be the reason its not working???

Tried disabling the vbseo and it still does not work at all.

try to add ?dofbredirect=1 at the end of URL and see whether fb login is working .

such as myforum.com/mythread.html?dofbredirect=1 or myforumURL.com/?dofbredirect=1

Ok I tried adding that at the end of the URL like you suggested and the FB login still doesn't work, absolutely nothing happens...

Are we getting somewhere yet? Process of elimination...

Create a new app in http://www.facebook.com/developers/ and copy the AppID & Secret Key details in Admincp-> settings--> Facebook Option

btw, Do you have SSL certificate? Is cURL supported by your host?

Ive done your first suggestion of creating the new app and still nothing happens.

Not sure if I have the SSL certificate when I purchased my hosting a few years ago. How can I check that? Can that have something to do with it not working?

Its weird because if you click that button not even the facebook box comes up like if you click it here on vbulletin.com I mean Literally nothing at all happens and its so frustrating.

You don't need an SSL certificate for Connect functionality.

Please provide a link to your site so we can see this

@Trevor :

**Trevor Hannant** · Thu 20 Sep '12, 8:07am

That's different to a certificate which is for the server. Go to:

AdminCP > Maintenance > View PHP Info

...and do a search for SSL - do you see mod_ssl in the list of installed modules?

Anyone know how I can fix this? Come to think of it, I don't recall it the facebook button ever actually worked on the website...

Thanks!

In my experience, Facebook Connect functionality won't work on a page that has any FBML on it.

(Like, those Facebook Fans boxes you have on Home and Forumhome.)

**sivaganesh** · Tue 25 Sep '12, 2:58am

Did you try using default vbulletin skin and see whether fb connect is working?
