When I hit the facebook connect button, i get a message telling me that my entries for real name and reason for registering are invalid. I assume this has to do with the two required questions everyone must answer upon joining naznet. Anyway, it gives me no option for correcting this (which I'm not sure how I'd do anyway, since I answered both of those questions when I registered). Anyway, naznet software won't let me link to facebook.

Me too still.

It's a known bug. Hopefully, a fix is coming. The strange thing is that some can link while others can't.

Well make sure you get right on it on this Sunday morning!

I'm toying with a workaround - if someone who has already tried but gotten this error message would try again and report back I'd appreciate it.

Where does one find this "Link to FB"?

It appears that it has worked for me this time, Scott. Thanks!

Now that I see it on a real computer and not just in my i-Phone I see it's right there-I feel like a dummy.

Ok now that I found the button I have tried to link except that I get a message that tells me that the records don't match. I am using a different last name on FB, but all the other info is tha same. Is there a way to do this?

Paul, can you give me the wording of the error, I'll look into it.

Paul, one suggestion I've seen is to log off of Facebook, log off of NazNet, clear the browser cache, and then try again, logging back into Facebook first. Let me know if that helps.

Thank you Scott, I tried that and tried different computer, but....

The following errors occurred during your registration

* Sorry, that facebook user does not match what we have on record, please try again.

My last name on FB is Sha'ul and DeBaufer here. I tried adding DeBaufer to the FB account with no luck. It's really not a big deal, but if it can be done...

Paul are you already logged onto facebook when you try the connect? I think you have to be. It's not looking at user names, but at account information stored on your computer. (I think). Be sure you are logged in on facebook, maybe on one tab, and then try it again on Naznet.

If that doesn't work, I do know of at least one post on the support forum about a user with the same problem, so it will probably be fixed sooner or later.

Another thought - are you using different email addresses? Maybe that's behind it.

I log on FB first the NN, everyday, several times and try it. I will make sure my e-mails are the same.
