Joomla Facebook Connect v2.5 Now Available

Version 2.5 of JFBConnect is now available. This version brings some great improvements along with much tighter integration between Community Builder and Facebook Connect:

* New user registration and returning user login messages can now be sent to your user's wall with a link-back to your site (API for 3rd party devs as well!)
* Community Builder default fields are now used when importing a profile

* Ability to always import profiles (every login, not just on registration)
For a full list, see the JFBConnect Changelog.

In the short period after it's release, we found a few bugs which rapidly moved the versions to 2.5.3.  Since then, things have settled down and we are now recommending all previous owners to upgrade.  Of course, we're always monitoring our support forums, so if you run into issues or need assistance, let us know!

Finally, if you enjoy, we'd always love a great review in our Joomla Facebook JED Listing!
