Cheers for the insight Otto!

A hold is not a charge.

I was addressing craigtommola. I probably confused you by not blockquoting his reply. Regardless, I was still incorrect. Thanks for the clarification. What’s the rational behind the hold? Is this action enough for verification? As an aside, it doesn’t remedy my grievance. I don’t want any social network interacting with finances hold or no hold. Are these measures commonplace for working with APIs in general?

it just happens if you try to do more than build your own personal profile.

Understood.

why try to hook your website to their system in the first place?

I don’t know what the said hooking entails. It was my intention to review Facebooks interaction with my site upon trialling the plugin and make a go or no go decision. Judging by your question I’d have probably opted for no go.

they do have very strong privacy settings on Facebook

That’s not necessarily the kind of privacy I’m referring to; it’s not even my privacy I’m necessarily concerned with seeing as how I’m registering an organization. It’s a principled concern. Let’s just say that if I were in the upper echelons of government responsible for the managing the populace, Facebook would be one of the more obvious tools for psychologically profiling an array of demographics and thereafter anticipating group or individual behavioral patterns. I find this disingenuous especially when the likely outcome of the findings will be used for steering or manipulating a populace. More here: https://www.albumoftheday.com/facebook/

Or, if you don’t trust them so much, then delete your account completely. Problem solved.

It’s just not that black and white buddy. Desire and necessity are two completely different things.

Hey CenSin, try the support forum for this plugin: https://xavisys.com/support/forum/efficient-related-posts/

Thanks for the replies craigtommola and Otto.

No charges apply.

Yes, they do. Reread my post and follow the relevant link.

And anyway, big deal. If you want to connect to their stuff, they just want to be sure that you’re a real person and not some kind of spammer or something.

Fair enough. I could have sworn I read a few instances where non-developers are also being targeted. Can you shine any light on this either way?

Also, I know people at Facebook personally. They don’t “sell your mobile contact info to marketing firms”.

I should have clarified that that’s speculation on my part.

Bottom line: If you don’t trust Facebook, then you shouldn’t be trying to connect your site to them in the first place.

I guess that’s the operative rational; I don’t so I won’t. Facebook represents one of the biggest one erosions in net privacy and neutrality. Surely you can conjure the amount of intelligence marketers and government can derive from the cumulative Facebook accounts. For me, it’s a matter principle but each to their own.

Regarding the icon set, a desaturated version of the current set would be subtle. The gaudiness probably upstages any theme layouts with a dark color scheme.

I couldn’t be arsed signing up for Satisfaction so I just posted here.

Turning off the short url and decreasing the amount of bookmarks has done the trick in terms of load time.

‘Sexy’ is an appropriate adjective. This bookmark plugin is in a league of it’s own. Eye candy goes a long way and every nuance from the animations to the cursive backgrounds are just dandy.

Oh the irony to misspelling in a post about misspelling. ?? ??

It’s a glitch that occurs if their are more than one entry for the same date.

For BuddyPress:

1) Go to: /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/index.php

2) Find: the_date()

3) Replace with: php the_time(get_option(‘date_format’));

Here’s an explanation on why it happens and how to fix it:

Great. No response.

I have the EXACT same issue. This plugin was a big waste of my time.

Don’t install this unless you’re prepared to lose time on undesirable and unpredictable effects that can’t be fixed.
