#16714: Facebook protocal will not accept user name

Version: 1.x | Keywords: Facebook Protocal Username XMPP
-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------
XMPP finally stopped working for Facebook the other day so I had to update
to facebook protocol. I followed the "Basic usage" and "Installing on
Windows" intructions on https://github.com/jgeboski/purple-facebook .
After working through the instructions for windows 7 64-bit, I still get a
message saying that the user name or password is incorrect. I tried the
following:
-Restart Pidgin
-Restart Computer
I tried the following for user names:
- Username at chat.facebook.com\pidgin
- Username at chat.facebook.com/pidgin
- Username at chat.facebook.com
- Username/pidgin
- Username\pidgin
- Username
- Email
and I still get the user name is incorrect message.
There is also no app password, so it shouldn't be the password causing the
issue.

Please help me get working again, I generally do not use facebook other
than the chat along with my other chat programs. Pidgin is better in every
way when compared to facebook chat in the browser.
