OurNewspaperARCHIVE

I am working on a fairly large project, http://www.OurNewspaperARCHIVE.com and one of our major goals is extensive Facebook integration. We started out using the fbconnect module, but quickly found it to be lacking for anything beyond simply adding Facebook Connect. We have transitioned over to using DFF and have several elements in production on our site.

The features we have implemented so far:

  • Facebook Connect
  • Publish to Facebook / OpenStream API

And we hope to add more soon!

Implementing Facebook Connect was fairly straight-forward. Implementing the OpenStream publishing required adapting a custom code snippet I found on in http://drupal.org/node/447610#comment-2277802.

One thing I am having trouble with is that I would like to have the invite friends work as a popup (as described http://drupal.org/node/631216) and I haven't been able to get the code for that working correctly. Whenever I try to implement it, the invite friends box just shows up in the block it is assigned to instead of rendering as a link.

If you would like to check out our site, I would invite you to do so. Thanks to Dave for a brilliant set of modules.

Kind of surprised that no one has commented so far...

We have continued to develop this project out. I have worked up the facebook side of the app at: http://apps.facebook.com/ournewspaperarchive/

Please check it out and let us know what you think.
