Simple Facebook Connect - works but doesn't display Facebook avatars
Wordpress 3.0.1 + Atahualpa 3.4.9
I installed the Simple Facebook Connect plugin and it works quite nicely, except for one thing: When a user comments on a post, it displays their Gravatar (or Mystery Man if they don't have one) instead of their Facebook profile photo. I dug around looking for an answer, including on these forums, and it seems like it's got something to do with the way Atahualpa fetches a commenter's avatar. Is anyone able to provide any advice on how I can get the Facebook profile photo to override the default photo? |
I have no idea if this would fix your problem but I would first upgrade to Atahualpa 3.5.3 manually per these instructions.

I have jusst integrated this plugin today and it works perfectly. Do you see the blue connect with Facebook button on your comment form. This will only be visible if you are logged out of WordPress.
If you don't you need to follow the instructions from the plugin developer for implementing the commenting. They can be found here. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the "Special note about the comments plugin" . Atah must use the old way of calling the commets form as I had to insert these lines of code for it to work. |
Thanks for this, it was useful. I needed to add the code you mentioned to get it to work too. By the way, for clarification for future readers, you need to go into WordPress proper: Appearance: Editor: Comments (comments.php) and put the code as described at the link above in the section that begins:
<?php // If User is not logged in: Display the form fields "Name", "Email", "URL" You can place it before or after the name, email, url boxes. |
Oh, and this is necessary to get Simple Twitter Connect to work too... (the one fix above enables both login options)
|
I have sent this info to the developer.

thanks sir!

For those interested, I specifically added this code to my comments.php:
Code:
<div class="altcommentlogin" id="comment-user-details"> <!--added for Facebook Connect and Twitter Connect--> At any rate, to have control over these, and to locally eliminate the link underline for that button only, I created that new style class, which I put in ATO>Add HTML/CSS Inserts>CSS Inserts. The code I used is: Code:
div.altcommentlogin { |
