 * I am using the facebook for wordpress plugin 1.4 with the latest version of wordpress.
   Whenever i go into the Facebook settings to insert the APP ID and APP Secret,
   upon clicking save it doesn’t seem to commit the changes. Has anyone else experienced
   this?

 * I had exactly the same issue when I was using Chrome. I switched to IE and it
   took the changes. Returned to Chrome and the changes were refelcted there too!

 * Is there any way to insert the app id and app secret directly into the database?

 * I believe the following to be the database entry where the information should
   be stored, whenever i update the app id and secret this entry doesn’t appear 
   to change.
 * ‘90722’, ‘facebook_application’, ‘a:0:{}’, ‘yes’

 * Joe, uninstall the latest one and try it with 1.3. I had the same issue with 
   1.4. I downloaded 1.3, saved the settings fine, then upgraded to 1.4 without 
   anymore issues.

 * Just a note…don’t go back to that page and change the values, or hit save. It
   will wipe the values again.

 * Or….
 * Update that database entry.
 * `'376', 'facebook_application', 'a:2:{s:6:\"app_id\";s:XXXX:\"YOUR APP ID\";s:
   10:\"app_secret\";s:YYYY:\"YOUR SECRET\";}', 'yes'`
 * XXXX= the length of your app ID (mine was 15)
 * YYYY= the length of your app secret (mine was 32)

 * Installing 1.3 seems to do the trick. Thanks!
