Step 4 - Update your models

Create a profile model from FacebookProfileModel from django-facebook/models.py.

Add a post_save signal handler for django.contrib.auth.models.User like:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
def create_profile(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created == True:
        try:
            YourProfileModel.objects.get(user=instance)
        except:
            profile = YourProfileModel(user=instance)
            profile.save()
post_save.connect(create_profile, sender=User)

In settings.py assign your model name to AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE then specify the facebook authentication backend:

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
    'django_facebook.auth_backends.FacebookBackend',
)

Step 5 - Template

See examples/connect.html.
