  FB plugin already saves the login information somewhere, and it already knows who you are if you're logged in.
  
  to save and load data on device you can use datasaver module by ar2sawseen:
  http://appcodingeasy.com/Gideros-Mobile/Save-and-load-data-module-for-Gideros-Mobile
  
  and this is the known FB API Reference for your convenience.
  https://github.com/gideros/giderosplugins/blob/master/Facebook/install.html
  you can find this file in your gideros install dir too inside plugins/facebook
  
  
  --authentication
  facebook:login(appId, permissions)
  facebook:logout()
  
  --get session data
  facebook:getAccessToken()
  facebook:getExpirationDate()
  
  --requests information
  facebook:get(path, params) --general request for any graph query
  facebook:getProfile(params)
  facebook:getFriends(params)
  facebook:getAlbums(params)
  facebook:getAppRequests(params)
  facebook:getScores(params)
  
  --publish information
  facebook:post(path, params) -- general post for any information
  facebook:postScore({score: 123})
  facebook:postPhoto(path, {message: , place: , album:})
  facebook:postToFeed({message, link, picture, name, caption, description})
  
  --delete
  facebook:delete(objectId) --id of the object to delete
  
  --dialogs
  facebook:dialog(type, params)
  facebook:inviteFriends({message, to, suggestions})
  facebook:share({message, link, picture, name, caption, description})
  
  
  EventsEvent.LOGIN_COMPLETE
  Event.LOGIN_ERROR --contains (e.errror)
  Event.LOGOUT_COMPLETE
  Event.LOGOUT_ERROR --contains (e.errror)
  Event.OPEN_URL --contains (e.url)
  Event.DIALOG_COMPLETE --contains (e.type, e.response)
  Event.DIALOG_ERROR --contains (e.type, e.errror)
  Event.REQUEST_COMPLETE --contains (e.type, e.response)
  Event.REQUEST_ERROR --contains (e.type, e.errror)
  
  --e.type is basically type/path you passed to graph request or dialog,
  --so you would know from what request are you receiving the response

  Oh, so I should just use dataSaver to save players name, level and etc. right?

  That's the easiest option to save progress locally.
  If you want to save to cloud I don't know how to do it, but I am pretty sure that we don't have a plugin to do it (yet)

  I don't know I am doing what I can with what I have (basic skills).
  The only one who did something about facebook and multiplayer integration seems to be mertocan, whose game make extensive use of multiplayer and facebook. But I don't think it was "easy" to do it. I think he uses noobhub, and that he wrote his own logic for his multiplayer server.
  
  What you can "easily" do is to login to fb, take the username from there and use it in local multiplayer (using unite framework). Then each player could share their score, and I believe fb could save those scores to a leaderboard.
  But unless you understand net protocols and "advanced stuff" I don't think you can do much about multiplayer.

  I forgot, there is also the Clan of the cloud option, but I have not tried them yet and I don't know if you can do what you want in an easy way.

  I will give everything to understand and to make it out! That's the only goal I would expect to complete, because the game project is big! Thanks again! )
