Is Facebook Integration Possible?

Is there any way to integrate Facebook with Invisionfree? For example, if you're on Facebook, can the Invisionfree forum take your account details straight into a new account? Is that at all possible? :o

Thanks very much for the responses. :)

No board link yet, obviously.

This question appears to be about InvisionFree, not ZetaBoards. It's now been moved to the appropriate InvisionFree support section. Thank you.

Possibly using JavaScript you could integrate it.
Check out *snip* No Advertising Please, they may have the answer you are looking for.

Do you mean when registering? Like you press a button and it imports your fb email, name (username) and password?

Would this method not require a connection to facebook, meaning it would require the details already to automatically fill them in. Also, retrieving a password would be a security issue. :P

I think the user is looking for the Facebook Connect feature, which would need to be integrated with ZetaBoards. I think the way this works, is you click the login button; sign in to Facebook, and then you are logged in to the board. And you can create new board accounts using the same system. IP.Board have it, but I don't use Facebook to test the feature. :yawn:

Whether something could be written up in JavaScript or not, I do not know. You could take a look at our resources board for more assistance from the code team: http://resources.zetaboards.com/index/. :)

Unless Facebook provides a way to do this with its API (and I doubt it does), this is not possible.
