In firefox everything is fine.

This is the error I get in explorer. Facebook Button doesn't show up so I can't login. I'm using the latest version.

Are you using the JFBCShare module on the same page? If so, can you try disabling it? We've received a few reports that this module is causing some conflicts. Unfortunately, it's Facebook's own code conflicting with itself, but we're looking into methods to fix this.

If that's not the cause, let us know.

No. I have it disabled.

Please check yourself. I have sent you a pm a couple of days ago with my site url. The problem is only with internet explorer.

With the 3.0.2 release, which I see you have installed, we included a new plugin "JFBConnect System". Can you enable this? We didn't call it out on the overview page as a requirement, but we expect it to help fix some issues like you're experiencing in IE.

Please let us know how that works out. If that doesn't, we may need admin access to the site to try some things. Mainly, I'd like to see if the Login appears on other pages. This will help determine if there's a conflict with something else on your home page. Currently though, it seems the login is only visible on the home page.

Thanks

Enabling the plugin fixed my issue!

Thanks a lot.

Very glad to hear it. We like rolling things out a little bit slowly to avoid causing any issues. We've gotten a lot of good feedback on the plugin so far from users who we've told to use it, or who have just enabled it on their own.

Good to get the feedback that it works in the situations we expect it to! :)
