 * It’s a bug that’s been fixed in the latest version just testing as much as I 
   can before releasing it.
 * To fix it temporarily please look at my post above, that’s all you have to do.

 * I believe this was resolved by email as haven’t heard back from them since. To
   anyone else encountering the same problem, make sure your facebook settings match
   your app settings from facebook and don’t forget to use a random alphanumeric(
   letters and numbers only) string for CSRF protection.
 * In the next update there will be clear descriptions by the facebook settings 
   so you know what to do.

 *     ```
       echo stripslashes($forum->description);
       ```
   
 * Then whenever you want to use slashes, instead of using \ or / use \\ or //.

 * I’m not sure if you’ve changed it already but this is what you do:
 * 1. Add this code to your wp-bulletin-board/css/wpbb-light-style.css, preferably
   at the top:
 *     ```
       /* Change the forum title position and color of the slash (/) character here */
       h2.wpbb-forum-title {
       	text-align:center;
       	padding-bottom:10px;
       }
   
       /* Change the color of the forum title link here, boldness, etc */
       h2.wpbb-forum-title a {
       	font-weight:bold;
       	color:purple;
       }
       ```
   
 * 2. Then in wp-bulletin-board/php/wpbb-index.php around line 126 change “wpbb-
   centered-bold” to “wpbb-forum-title”
 * 3. Repeat this in wp-bulletin-board/php/wpbb-view-forum.php (around line 26)
 * 4. Repeat this in wp-bulletin-board/php/wpbb-view-forum-topic.php (around line
   173)
 * 5. Repeat this in wp-bulletin-board/php/wpbb-view-subforum.php (around line 183)
 * 6. Repeat this in wp-bulletin-board/php/wpbb-view-subforum-topic.php (around 
   line 40)
 * That should do it. You can edit your forum name in admin dashboard – settings–
   wpbb settings – forum name.
 * In the next version that will be released soon you’ll be able to edit individual
   elements more easily, since most of them use the same css selectors.
 * Thanks, let me know if you need any more help.

 * No problem glad it worked.
 * It should decrease the authors post count when the author changes but you’re 
   right I don’t think it increases the new authors post count. I am aware of this
   and it will be fixed in the next update.

 * It does. I think the problem you’re having is that another plugin is using the
   same order ID.
 * Open wp-bulletin-board/wp-bb.php around line 359 and change the number at the
   end of that line to a different number until it appears, I think at the moment
   it’s 27. Change that number and save. Should then work.
 * Will look into this more to see if anything can be done in to prevent this.

 * Hey,
 * Sorry about that. Just a typo that I have been aware of and haven’t yet updated
   the plugin files. Please take a look at this topic post to see what to do:

 * **1st Post:** Check the permissions for the forum you’re having trouble accessing.
   If you have any problems saving your changes then refresh your roles (WPBB ->
   Tools -> Refresh Roles).
 * **2nd Post:** The “anyone can register” setting in your admin dashboard settings
   must be ticked to allow facebook registrations.
 * **3rd Post:** It should work after you’ve made the above changes and looked over
   your wpbb and facebook settings again to make sure they are setup correctly. 
   That error message is displayed when you try to login with an account that doesn’t
   exist, e.g. you provided an incorrect username / password. You must register 
   using facebook before being able to login with facebook and then you can login
   with wordpress but registering through wordpress does not work the same way. 
   If you registered using facebook and are trying to login using wordpress remember
   your username will be your facebook name (remember the spaces if any) and the
   password you entered when you created the account with WPBB.

 * I noticed you’re using an SMF forum, have you deactivated or removed WPBB? Anyway
   this is all you have to do:
 * Open wp-bulletin-board/css/wpbb-light-style.css and find around line 182:
 *     ```
       .wpbb-topic-and-post-content {
       	min-height: 50px;
       	min-width: 500px;
       	white-space: pre-line;
       }
       ```
   
 * Replace with:
 *     ```
       .wpbb-topic-and-post-content {
       	min-height: 50px;
       	min-width: 500px;
       	white-space: pre-line;
       	text-align:left;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you’d be able to display a screenshot of the other parts you wanted aligned
   differently that’d be great as I’m not 100% sure which part you meant as it all
   seems to be aligned that way.
 * Will mark this as resolved but feel free to post here again.
 * Thanks.

 * In WPBB facebook settings is Redirect URL set as **[http://www.audiojack.com/discuss/](http://www.audiojack.com/discuss/)**?

 * Make sure the Website URL you provided to facebook in those steps is the same
   as your redirect URL in your wpbb facebook settings.
 * **Forgot to mention you should also make sure you have entered a random string
   in the CSRF protection in your wpbb facebook settings e.g. dfdhf49hfdf9ns2v0fcf4t(
   must be alphanumeric – numbers and letters only) but don’t use this one.**

 * Sorry yes there aren’t actually any instructions on how to set this all up. This
   is all you have to do:
 * 1. [https://developers.facebook.com/apps](https://developers.facebook.com/apps)(
   register or login)
    2. “Create New App” 3. Enter App Name, can be anything you
   want, don’t worry about app namespace or web hosting. Click continue. 4. Facebook
   should’ve created the app for you and you’ll see at the top the name of your 
   app and the default avatar, next to that there is your App ID and App Secret 
   Key. Enter those into your WPBB facebook settings. 5. You may want to enter a
   contact email and change any other settings to your liking but leave sandbox 
   mode disabled and don’t use the “Hosting URL” 6. Click “Website with Facebook
   Login” under “Select how your app integrates with Facebook” then enter the URL
   to your wpbb forum e.g. [http://mysite.com/wordpress/forum](http://mysite.com/wordpress/forum)
   7. Save changes
 * You just have to make sure your settings match the settings in your WPBB settings.
   Also make sure that the Redirect URL is the same, usually people make a mistake
   there.
 * Let me know if you need any further help and I will also add this as an FAQ and
   add to the readme for the next version.
