JFBConnect v3.2 is out now! We've already detailed the major new features in our sneak peak, but there's a few extra goodies in there for everyone! The Facebook for Joomla extension, now over 2 years old has always been a powerful single-sign on registration extension. Now it's your all-in-one Facebook social component as well. (Undecided? See our JED Reviews)
In addition to the Open Graph integration, rich wall posts, custom registration fields, and automatic comments & like buttons in each article, this also has a slew of user-requested features, like:
- User approval - Even though a user's email address is already validated by Facebook, some sites should still be private. Now you can accept each of your users, while still allowing easy Facebook registration
- Automatic Open Graph image in articles - Set it and forget it, JFBConnect will pick the first image in your article to represent it in Facebook for Likes, Comments, and other social sharing
- More profile fields - Even more available to import from Facebook (gender, middle name, hometown, and more!)
- Updates to all of the Facebook social modules - All use the latest available parameters from Facebook as of April 13th - includes like, comment, fan box, activity feed, recommendation, live stream
There were even more than the above, but there's too much to go over. For all the notable changes, be sure to check out the JFBConnect changelog.
