    Facebook auth failing

    Hi Anders, me again :)

    Trying to get a facebook feed going now but the auth screen results in the following error:

    Unable to get user information Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    Any ideas?

    enter image description here

    app id, app secret and url are all populated

    Just chatted a bit with Tim on Skype, and it seems we found the culprit, so if anyone is experiencing the same error, here is the explanation/solution:

    This package - Skybrud.Social.Umbraco - has a dependency for Skybrud.Social. The dependency doesn't require the newest version (the lowest required version is v0.9.1.1, but the newest version is currently v0.9.4.1).

    It seems that NuGet will just install the lowest required version of Skybrud.Social rather than the newest version, which have some fixes for Facebook. So to get the newest version, you can simply write Update-Package Skybrud.Social in your NuGet console in Visual Studio.
