logout.php file overview

Logout.php file is used only to destroy facebook session and return back to your home page .

session_unset();
    $_SESSION['FBID'] = NULL;
    $_SESSION['FULLNAME'] = NULL;
    $_SESSION['EMAIL'] =  NULL;

index.php file overview

Step 8 » You can change this file as per your need . Split this file into 2 parts before login and after login.

<?php
session_start();
?>
<!doctype html>
<html xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
  <head>
    <title>Login with facebook</title>
   --- --- --- 
  css stuff
   --- --- ----
 </head>
  <body>
  <?php if ($_SESSION['FBID']): ?>    
              -- --- - - - -- - 
           Display content After user login
             -- -- - --- ---- -- -  
    <?php else: ?>

 </head>
  <body>
  <?php if ($_SESSION['FBID']): ?>      <!--  After user login  -->
<div class="container">
<div class="hero-unit">
  <h1>Hello <?php echo $_SESSION['USERNAME']; ?></h1>
  <p>Welcome to "facebook login" tutorial</p>
  </div>
<div class="span4">
 <ul class="nav nav-list">
<li class="nav-header">Image</li>
	<li><img src="https://graph.facebook.com/<?php echo $_SESSION['USERNAME']; ?>/picture"></li>
<li class="nav-header">Facebook ID</li>
<li><?php echo  $_SESSION['FBID']; ?></li>
<li class="nav-header">Facebook fullname</li>
<li><?php echo $_SESSION['FULLNAME']; ?></li>
<div><a href="logout.php">Logout</a></div>
</ul></div></div>
    <?php else: ?>     <!-- Before login --> 
<div class="container">
<h1>Login with Facebook</h1>
           Not Connected
<div>
      <a href="fbconfig.php">Login with Facebook</a></div>
      </div>
    <?php endif ?>
  </body>
</html>

That’s it . now facebook users can login into your websites using facebook login ID.

Store the User information

» You can store the user info locally . Create a mysql database and import below table structure .

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `Users` (
  `UID` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `Fuid` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
  `Ffname` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
  `Femail` varchar(60) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`UID`)
);

» Open dbconfig.php file and change the DB vlaues.

<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'username');    // DB username
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');    // DB password
define('DB_DATABASE', 'database');      // DB name
$connection = mysql_connect(DB_SERVER, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD) or die( "Unable to connect");
$database = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE) or die( "Unable to select database");
?>

» functions.php file contains a function to update the user information .

<?php
	require 'dbconfig.php';
	function checkuser($fuid,$ffname,$femail){
    	$check = mysql_query("select * from Users where Fuid='$fuid'");
		$check = mysql_num_rows($check);
		if (empty($check)) { // if new user . Insert a new record		
		$query = "INSERT INTO Users (Fuid,Ffname,Femail) VALUES ('$fuid','$ffname','$femail')";
		mysql_query($query);	
		} else {   // If Returned user . update the user record		
		$query = "UPDATE Users SET Ffname='$ffname', Femail='$femail' where Fuid='$fuid'";
		mysql_query($query);
		}
	}
?>

» Uncomment the below lines in fbconfig.php
require 'functions.php'; // Include functions
checkuser($fbid,$fbfullname,$femail); // To update local DB
That’s it .. now you can store the values locally .

Download contains all the configuration files .
Good luck
