We are keen to standardise on Openid for all logins so we would like to use this app as our main method of Facebook login.

Unfortunately we need a unique identifier for every user and a large proportion of Facebook users have not chosen a username/nickname so they only have a numeric ID. This app doesn't return the nickname field unless the user has chosen a username.

Could you possibly modify the code slightly so that it will return the user ID number as the nickname if the nickname is not set or alternatively provide the user id number in a separate field?

If you can make this change we would be happy to make a donation.

Many thanks,
Chris
