@libnine #53 I had the same issue. The issue is two fold: one it's been a few years and the FB API has changes that affect this code. And two, there is a small issue with the model, probably caused by issue no.1.

1. In auth.js, below FB's "callbackURL", add:

module.exports = {

  /* Facebook Authorization */
  'facebookAuth': {
    'clientID': 'yourclientid',
    'clientSecret': 'yourclientsecret',
    'callbackURL': 'http://localhost:3000/auth/facebook/callback', // Change URL to your app
    'profileFields': ['id', 'email', 'name'] // Add permissions as needed. Check FB API docs for what permissions are available
  }
};

2. In passport.js, fix the new FacebookStrategy:

passport.use(new FacebookStrategy({
    clientID: configAuth.facebookAuth.clientID,
    clientSecret: configAuth.facebookAuth.clientSecret,
    callbackURL: configAuth.facebookAuth.callbackURL,
    profileFields: configAuth.facebookAuth.profileFields,
    enableProof: true, // For security
    passReqToCallback: true // Pass request from route
  },

3. In user.js schema, make sure the order of your fields is correct:

const UserSchema = mongoose.Schema({
  local: {
    email: String,
    password: String
  },
  facebook: {
    id: String,
    token: String,
    name: String,
    email: String
  }
};

Yeah, the fact that the tutorial has email above name in the schema broke the code! Hopefully, this will be enough to fix your issues and anyone else's :) I'm not sure if I should do a pull request for this? It doesn't seem to be updated anymore.

@fatima-alansari Thanks for the insight. A pull request would be great. I'm planning on doing a big update of this and a PR would be a big help.
