Hello,


I want to add one more Facebook Connect button (a different button with bigger size other than the little one next to 'Sign In' button at the console) to a Custom Html area in Index page, or to a totally different page, like an external HTML landing page. I apreciate if someone can tell me how to do this.

Alican, as  you might have noticed FB connect button doesn't have a direct URL. Functionality of this button is connected to Oxwall's core code and to FB connect plugin. That is why you will not be able to insert this button easily into the Custom Html widget OR into external custom page.

What I suggest doing is adding an image into your custom html widget or external page using simple .html code: <a href="urloflink"><img src="urlofimage" alt="some_text"></a>

where urloflink will be a sign in page ( www.sitename.com/sign-in). Once users click on your button, they will be redirected to sign in page, where they will need to click on our standard FB connect button and log in.
