Joomla login fails with FaceBook login enabled

I just created an account (using JFBConnect) and created a user (sourcecoast). I was able to login through this account just fine. However, I'm not sure what you mean by entering the email address as the login name. Joomla uses a separate username for this function. Do you have a special login feature of your site?

Our login module (JFBCLogin) uses the same login form as the mod_login built into Joomla and we even post the form to the com_user component built into Joomla. If you're being denied access when logging in as a Joomla user, it's by Joomla itself, not JFBConnect.

If you have more information, that may help us get to the bottom of your problem. Just let us know!

If I understand your question correctly, no. When a user's logging in through Facebook, our JFBConnect Authentication plugin is called up to deck and verifies the Facebook user is a member of the site. If not, we create them a completely normal Joomla user (assuming your have "Full Joomla User" set, not Facebook user only, that's a little different).

Either way, we save the password to the com_users table and when anyone logs in using Joomla credentials, we pass that information to the com_user component to validate the user. JFBConnect doesn't interfere or change this interaction at all. We definitely don't keep any separate passwords for users.

Hope that helps explain how we work, but if you have any other questions, just let us know!
