edit user profile question

[anrake]

Not really an issue, but how can I edit User records when the user is a Facebook only user. The situation is that I have added several fields to my User model for "profile" data. I can edit the Devise forms to add these fields but Devise requires a password to authorize the user to Update the profile. For Facebook Users there is no password. I created a new controller and view for FB users but the system still rejects the Update, probably because there is no password authorization for Updates.

Could you show me your model code?

I mean...what you ask for should work too, so I need to see your devise-call in you affected user-model to see if something could be wrong with the load order of facebook_connectable vs email_authenticatable.

Hi, sorry for the slow reply. Does facebook_connectable need to be declared first?

model:

devise :authenticatable, :confirmable, :recoverable, :registerable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable, :facebook_connectable

attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :nickname

controller:

class FbusersController < ApplicationController

def edit @user = User.find(params[:id]) end

def update
@user = User.find(params[:id]) if @user.update_attributes(params[:user]) flash[:notice] = 'User was successfully updated.' redirect_to :controller => 'mypage', :action => "home", :id => current_user.visit_page else render :action => 'edit' flash[:notice] = 'User was NOT successfully updated.'
end end

end

Here is the output in terminal

Processing FbusersController#update (for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-05-07 22:19:36) [GET] Parameters: {"id"=>"37"} User Columns (1.6ms) SHOW FIELDS FROM users User Load (0.3ms) SELECT * FROM users WHERE (users.id = 37) SQL (0.1ms) BEGIN SQL (0.1ms) ROLLBACK Rendering fbusers/edit Completed in 86ms (View: 50, DB: 2) | 200 OK [http://localhost/fbusers/update/37] SQL (0.1ms) SET SQL_AUTO_IS_NULL=0

You should try to put :facebook_connectable first.

[anrake]

That doesn't work either. Do you have a working model/sample code?

i'm having the same issue. cannot save extra user entered information by a fb_session user. it asks for a password & the following error is generated "Current password can't be blank". i did move the :facebook_connectable ahead of :authenticatable

i'm using the following gems:

rails (2.3.5) devise (1.0.7) facebooker (1.0.69) devise_facebook_connectable (0.2.1) warden (0.10.3) rails-footnotes (3.6.6)

Oh, sorry I must have been tired when I replied...you need to tell Devise authenticatable-migration to allow null:

t.database_authenticatable :null => true

That should work. Let me know how it goes.
