Add 200 cubepoints for Facebook like - once only.

Hi,

I use Cubepoints on my WP site, and I would like to encourage new users to also like my facebook page (http://facebook.com/dropdeadgorgeousdaily) after sign up.

To be able to do this I need to have an image/button link that when clicked will:

A) add them as a fan on my facebook page, and
B) give that logged in user 200 cubepoints.

I also want to make sure each user can only get the points once.

Here is a forum post which seems to be almost there, but I can't get it working for me.

Thanks

Kate

cp_log('sharing', $user_id, 200, "admin");

}

}

?>

<div class="sidebars">

<?php echo thesis_sidebars(); ?>

</div>

here's the code.
but this has drawback. as what the furom said.

but this code be improved if you use facebook connect together with cubepoints.
facebook connect has more control regarding facebook functionalities.

cheers.

This doesn't seem to register the points either.

Replace this :

if ( ($share == "YES") && (get_user_meta( $user_id, '_cp_like_fb', true ) == '') ) {

by this :

if ( (isset($_GET['share']) && $_GET['share'] == "YES") && (!get_user_meta( $user_id, '_cp_like_fb', true )) ) {

see you

I understand that, sadly I gave out a login to a stranger once and they loaded a trojan onto my site - another couple crashed it completey, so I am very wary.

I was hoping it was simple, but guess not.
