    facebook sign up error when attempting to sign up with developer's account

    when attempting to sign up with our facebook developer's account into our vBulletin forum we get this error :

    "Invalid Scopes: publish_actions, user_about_me, user_birthday, user_location, user_work_history. This message is only shown to developers. Users of your app will ignore these permissions if present. Please read the documentation for valid permissions at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions"

    this happens when we are concurrently signed in our facebook developer's account on facebook then we hit the facebook sign up button in our vBulletin site

    we noticed that if we are concurrently signed in facebook with any other account except our developer's account and then we hit the facebook sign up button in our vBulletin site , then the sign-up / registration will go through and we get a new user in our vBulletin site.

    So this is only happening when using the primary facebook developer's account which we used to generate our API keys to set up our facebook log in functionalities on our vBulletin site


    any ideas will be greatly helpful

    thnx

    This is because Facebook updated their code and we haven't made the changes in vBulletin as of yet. It should not affect your regular users.

      If you edit the first line of the 'js\facebook.js' file and remove the references to those two values,
      user_about_me, user_work_history
      this should resolve this for you.
