I don't know FaceBook Connect (I don't even have a FaceBook account yet, but I will... according to the number of invitations I arelady received). Anyway, can you describe the purpose of connecting Piwigo and FaceBook?

Facebook connect is an API by facebook to integrate the login with your website. So if i go to a website that is facebook connect enabled i can login using my Facebook ID. Similiar to OpenId. Once i am logged into piwigo i can share information. So let's say a user uploads a pic, it can post direct to that users Facebook profile and let everyone know they just uploaded. There is a lot of possibility with this and it can really help market a website.

I have used it with other websites, it's a fairly easy API to use. More information can be found here. http://developers.facebook.com/connect.php

You really should take a look at Facebook, i held out for a long time also until i realized the marketing capability. You can also create fan pages, Piwigo should deffinitely create a fan page.

I didn't have a FaceBook account.
But recently I had to code a plugin to connect people thru an external API.

I have to comment it, I will do it today.
The code is clear, it is quite simple.

If any wants to create the Facebook connection based on my code, he is welcome.

Thanks for the description.

Piwigo - /extensions/external_connection/main.inc.php - Piwigo

This is just a sample...
It needs to be reworked for a Facebook usage.

please, was something done in the way of authentication?
I mean if someone have facebook account or gmail account i will just create him in piwigo own account, and will enter his e-mail addres or facebook id. When he log in to piwigo with facebook/gmail account he will see all as registred user.
