JFBConnect v2.1 is out

This new release of the popular Joomla Facebook integration extension has the much requested feature of integration with Community Builder as well as a registration form for allowing new users to select their Joomla username and password for your site.

The following is a list of new changes:

Added Community Builder support to import profile fields and avatar (similar to JomSocial)
Added a 'quick' registration form to let a user select their own username, password, and set their email address
JFBCLogin module got an overhaul allowing most features to be hidden to allow for you to display it how you want
JFBCLogin module now much more easy to override in your template. You shouldn't have to modify the default.php file anymore, so future revisions won't overwrite your customizations
Many minor bug-fixes

For more info, see the JFBConnect changelog.
