Login Issues was created by fb_729628948
Basically is that, some people can login with not problems at all, others cannot login using the facebook button, it was working very well, but i had to reinstall everything in my website, so what i did was to use the old DB since I had people already there registered using the JFB, well those guys can login but when some new user try to open an account or login the JFB Facebook button is where the problem comes, in the personal i don't have any problem, so i cannot see what's the error and the users that only that they say is that is impossible trying to login.
Can you guys check my website and see if there is any error? also if you need any account to login to the backend let me know

I just tried to log in, and when presented with the normal "Login or Register" form, everything seems normal. However, the email field is hidden (a new option in v3.1) and the hidden value isn't really being set by Facebook/JFBConnect properly. This is a bug we've seen on just a few sites, and are trying to diagnose the cause.

Please try to re-enable showing the Email field on registration, for the time being, and that should fix your current issue.

With the 3.1.2 release (due soon), we hope to have a workaround implemented.

Let us know if you continue to have issues or have other questions!

Mathieu,
Shouldn't be any reason for that. Let me try to go through what you're saying is happening, and I'll see what I can do:
1) User registers through JFBConnect
2) User then tries to login through Community Builder - not using JFBConnect
Login fails?

Can you let me know what the Activation and Approval states are in Community Builder for the user that can't get in? If there are red 'x' values in there, try reading the following article, which can hopefully explain the cause, and some solutions:

Thanks,

Mathieu,
I recreate what you mention on your site. We'll do some testing, and see if there's something we're doing wrong. With the 4.0 release, we changed the JFBCLogin module to actually use the Community Builder login functionality, which allows user's to login with their username or email address (if CB is configured that way). This was tested a bit with Joomla 1.5, but might have some issues with J1.6/1.7, which you look to be using.

For now, if you're up for making a minor modification to the JFBCLogin module, this will switch it to use the normal Joomla login flow, while still keeping the Register/Forgot password links going to CB. To do so, open up the /modules/mod_jfbclogin/tmpl/default.php file. Around line 55, you'll see:
<?php if ($registerType != "communitybuilder")
Change that to:
<?php if (true)
Let us know how that goes, and like I said, we'll do some more testing with the newer Joomla versions to see how it goes.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi, I just bought JFBConnect and installed it.
I have activated all the plugins and configured the API, however when I connect from the front end, the API window appears for one second then disappears and the user is not created, nor there is an error, even with the API errors option active.
Please advice,

Manos

Manos,
Your issue doesn't really sound related to the posts above.

Can you create a new topic, and post the URL of your site so that we can check what's happening? Generally, this is caused when other Facebook extensions are installed. When you create the new post, please let us know if you're using any other social extensions as well, as that will help us narrow things down.

Usually, once we see the front-end of the site, we can provide fixes for the type of issue you mention pretty quickly.

Thanks,
Alex

Sorry for the delay, I hat to take time to do the code change.
