Hi I used the jomsocial template position js_profile_feed_top for the JFBCInvite module
but after selecting facebook users and clicking on send invite the pop up window is half covered up.
how can I fix this. I being thinking the invite function is integrated with jomsocial?

I did move the invite module to a different position om my default template and I have the same problem.To see this in action please go to www.sdi-graphics.com click the community link on top and connect with facbook or create an account. PS you need to be on the community page to see the module on the bottom . The redirect after log in don't seem to work either.

Unfortunately, Facebook's invite implementation is.. lacking. The invite module creates an iFrame to Facebook which, once an iFrame is sized, it normally doesn't resize on the fly. When you click "Send invitations", the window grows, and therfore, needs to be resized. We have no control over the contents of the iFrame whatsoever, so we can't just move the popup to the left more. We do have some javascript (the "automatic resizing" parameter) to try and fix these issues, but it doesn't always work in every site configuration, and your site seems to be included.

However, it looks like in your case, there is a possibly easy fix. If you can modify the following file, it looks like it should fix the issue.
/module/mod_jfbcinvite/tmpl/default.php. At line 42, there's a long string. If you can remove the 'overflow:hidden' section, it looks like the module will resize properly for you. The final line should look like:
<div style="position: relative; top:0px; left:0px; width:<?php echo $closedWidth;?>px" id="jfbcinvite">

Try that, and let us know how it goes. Good luck!

Hi Alex thank You for your fast response.
There are still honest people out there.
I started out with a product called parainvite, it's almost 3 times the money and it isn't working at all.
Nothing but problems and depending on openinviter.
Now I'm trying to get my money back after several days of support requests.
Back to our problem! Yes it's working like charm. Thank you a bunch
How aver the redirect in the login module and the jfbConect component don't seem to work.
I checked the setting in both but no chance?
I have to leave this for next weekend. I like my landing page to be the community page were jomsocial is.

I'm sorry you even have to start with "there's still honest people.." Yes, we are, and we take our refund policy (30 days) very seriously, in case you want to take advantage of it.

Is the login redirection not working when you're logging in with a Joomla user or through the Facebook Connect blue button? Also, is it a new user or a returning one? I think the 3.1 release has a bug-fix for one of the redirections, and, if you won't be able to work on it until then, hopefully that release will fix your issue.

Good luck, and keep us posted on what you find.
