IPB Facebook Connect [#1090091] Error and Solution

2/10/2012

When trying to set up Facebook Connect for our Android Forum site, we got a nasty error after people completed authorising the site:

[#1090091] An error occurred while trying to authorize this Facebook connection

There are plenty of people who write about this problem if you Google for it, but not many solutions. Luckily IPB support is superb and solved our problem for us. So if you are getting the "[#1090091] An error occurred while trying to authorize this Facebook connection", go to your Facebook App Advanced settings, and under Migrations disable everything except for Remove Deprecated APIs.

If that doesn't work try IPB Support, they are really on the ball.

Showing Code only to Guests in IPB 3 Templates

In Invision Power Board 2 you could hide text in their templates by preventing it from showing to logged in users. The code looked like this:

<if="$this->ipsclass->member['id'] == 0">
Hello, guest
</if>

In IPB3 templates this didn't work at all. Instead, to limit your code to show only to guests and not to registered users use the following:

<if test="$this->memberData['member_id'] == 0">
Hello, guest
</if>
