Automatic linking is not functioning was created by drjjw

Hello,

Using JFB 3.03:

I have followed the instructions and all seems to work except for one thing.

I have set the user config to:

Facebook User Only
Automatically Link Facebook Users by Email: Yes

And yet, when a user logs in with their Facebook account, if that email is in use on the site, there will be a "User already exists warning".

It will not map FB to that existing user as the instructions suggest.

Hmm. Not sure, we'll investigate, but obviously, that should be working. We're in the process of heavily testing version 3.1 for a very soon release.

We'll let you know what we find, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Jordan,
This issue has been fixed in 3.1. The automapping feature was added in 3.0.2, and unfortunately had a bug where it didn't work if you used a custom database table prefix (not jos_). It was a stupid issue on our part, and was recently found for the 3.1 release. We've added non-standard prefixes to our testing suite, and this shouldn't come up again in other forms.

Thanks again, and good luck!
