JFBConnect v4.2.5 Bug-Fix Release Available

JFBConnect - Facebook for JoomlaThe newest version of JFBConnect, v4.2.5, was just released. This update fixes some minor bugs that certain configurations of JFBConnect may run into.

Bugs fixed include:

  • Enabling auto-login can prevent email notifications or Alpha User Point rewards on new Facebook Likes or Facebook Comments.
  • Permission requests on login can be incorrect for certain fields imported from Facebook.
  • Password length was not properly checked during registration, allowing users to register with very short passwords.

For all of the changes, see the full JFBConnect changelog. While the update is not required and may not affect all users, we always recommended you use the latest version to ensure the smoothest operation for your Facebook integration.
