facebook connect button on custom form

Posted Thu, 02/04/2010 - 14:13 by Nicolas

I have a custom form to log in. I would like to put the button on that form.
I tried this code, but it does only displays in text "connect with facebook" without an image and it is not clickable.

$form['fb_connect_button'] = array(
'#type' => 'markup',
'#value' => 'Connect with Facebook',
'#prefix' => '',
'#suffix' => '',
);

Can someone hel p me to properly display the button on that form?

Thanks !

Try something like:


      // Add button to the form.
      $form['fb_connect_button'] = array(
        '#type' => 'markup',
        '#value' => '<fb:login-button v="2"><fb:intl>Connect with Facebook</fb:intl></fb:login-button>',
        '#prefix' => '<div class="form-item" id="fb-connect-button">',
        '#suffix' => '</div>',
      );

Apparently the facebook application you add on your drupal site has to be published. Else no button is displayed.

Thanks for your reply. Apparently something went wrong with my copy/past. The code I have is the same as what you suggested. I analyzed it further and was able to compare to a test site I have where drupal for facebook is working. On the working site I see 2 scripts from static.ak.connect.facebook.com.
On the site I'm implementing drupal for facebook I don't see those scripts. What could possibly go wrong? I have followed the installation steps. It is installed the same way on both sites.
Any suggestions?
