I have tried to implement Drupal connect with facebook functionality via fbconnect module. I have installed and set up the plugin. When I click on the facebook button the new popup window is opened and it requires my facebook credentials. After I enter those, instead of just simply logging in to my site, drupal asks of me to create a new account for drupal.
Is there any way to just connect with my facebook account without creating a new one on the drupal site.
Regardz,

RPX works the same way.
I believe you would have to modify the code to grab the returned data from Facebook and simulate a user creation with user_save, then automatically log them in, bypassing the Drupal login. Drupal needs a way of tracking that user on the site which is why that occurs.
I don't think the modules are quite there yet, though. Thanks for pointing that out, because I will have to come up with something like this.

I am developing a website using Drupal 6 and I enable the reCaptcha module to check its functionality. It now redirects me to the google recaptaha page : https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create
I am not sure of the exact process and I have not set the keys yet, which I can do only if I can get access to my site. I am not able to login and even disable the module. Based on the suggestion on Drupal forum, I accessed the database and disable the module from the system table but I still get the redirection. I cleared all the cache tables in the MySQL database but still the same. What should i do to get access and disable the module? Is there any good tutorial/video to set the reCapthca module?
Try the following:
1. Clear your browser cache and cookies
2. Check with different browser
backup the recaptcha row from the system table.
delete the recaptcha row in the system table.
That should disable the module.
if still give the same error please access your drupal website cron job url
the link will look like

I have implemented a twitter login for my site, using a plugin called "Simple Twitter Connect".
Now what this plugin does is create a twitter login function for my site above the the comments section which allows users to use their twitter details rather than filling out name and email boxes.
Now the problem I am having with it is when it gets to the authorize page on twitter.com, after entering the details and then going back to the site it loads solicialize.gigaya.com page.
On the contents of the page it says
Failed connecting. Please try again later
I initially thought it must simply be something wrong with the plugin, however I have contacted the plugin author and he as said that gigya has nothing to do with his plugin nor does his plugin link to it.
I havent signed up to gigya nor implemented any of their functions on my site, so I'm not sure how this site gets into the equation.
If anyone wants to recreate the issue, the click here and login via twitter.
Can anyone suggest what the issue may be?
After the successful OAuth-Login you are redirected to the Callback URL associated with your Consumer key. The Callback URL can be configured - here's how you do it:
Log in to https://dev.twitter.com/apps
Select the application which you are using in your blog
Go to the "Settings" tab and you'll find the Callback URL under "Application Type"
Set the URL to your blog base directory (where the index.php is).
I am currently building a mobile app that will use an existing vBulletin install as a login system. I've run into an issue where if a user is already signed on somewhere else, they cannot sign back on using the application. On the vBulletin site, if this happens, you are presented with a "Force Logout" button that will end all existing login sessions and allow you to login again.
Is there a way to implement such a feature use just the API? I cannot query the database, unfortunately, and my only means of accessing the vBulletin system is through api.php methods. The vBulletin API documentation is woefully incomplete, so I am hoping someone else would have an answer for this.
If it helps at all, I am using Flex and AS3 to build the application and have successful login and logout, but the logout only works if you pass an appropriate sessionHash to the API.
This was an issue with our specific vBulletin config. We had to write a custom script that would allow us to access the forcelogout.php page/script and force a logout.
I'm using Drupal twitter module with recommended Oauth version(2.02) and I can post to twitter via API successfully. but, I have to manually authenticate the application with the user in /user/%/edit/twitter page.
But I would like to create a fully twitter-integrated web site that automatically add twitter accounts used to log in to the site, to twitter accounts of that user's list.
If somehow I managed to do this, once user log in to site via Twitter can see their own tweets in my site without adding them manually.
But I'm not sure(and looking for your kindly help) how to make this combination.
Drippic.com has already done this. Once logged in, users can tweet without having to add the account again.
I use same twitter application to do both registration and tweet-importing and the application asks for read/write access to the site.
This has fixed in later Twitter module's releases.
If anyone else has this problem, just update to the latest version and you can ditch the problem.
I have a Drupal site where I want to allow users to add their current Facebook Events that they themselves have created into a custom database. I'm not looking to use Facebook Connect as a User Management system, just trying to get someone's info after they accept.
More specifically I'm looking for a way to access a user's Facebook events info from a Drupal Page using PHP. I want them to be able to hit a button and give me access to their events.
Did you take a look at http://drupal.org/project/fb and http://www.drupalforfacebook.org/ ?
The FB module works pretty well, is mostly sane to use, and the author is responsive to bug reports.
