Hi,

I am using Community Builder CB Connect plugin, I was hoping if i can get some help in editing the plugin for connecting facebook and joomla accounts. Can someone help me to edit the pluginso that once user logs in with facebook id he is redirected to registration page like in JFBC connect where he has to choose between register as a new user or to create a new account (joomla Account)

I'm not really sure what you're looking to do, actually. It sounds like you're trying to add a feature to CB Connect that JFBConnect already has. Is there a reason you don't want to use JFBConnect to do it?

We don't know a lot about CB Connect, and how it functions, but I don't think it has the ability to auto-associate users like JFBConnect does. If there's some feature you need in CB Connect that we don't have, let us know.

Thanks!

Well even i am myself not sure why i invested 75 Euros to be a member on joomlapolis, seems to be simple waste of money. I wanted to have good registration on my site so went for cb. But did not want to have cb credits on my professional site so thought of purchasing. Then i saw multiple plugins and wanted to try them out. I like the opensocial integration including google and twitter but now it turns out to be that facebook of cb connect doesnt work the way jfbc connect. I want it to work exactly like JFBC connect. Only good thing about cbconnect, something i have failed to replicate in JFBC is that.....cb connect works in popup module (this means i can have all my login options in one place) and second is small facebook button. I think if i can have these two things then nothing like it.

At the backend i am not too sure how it works with JFBC+Community Builder. I mean if the connection of users happens properly. Right now i am not able to connect two users which were previously connected by JFBC although i have deleted the user mapping. I seriously want to go back to JFBC but want the button to replace facebook button in cb connect. Please see the file attached.

Yeah, JFBConnect definitely has a ton more features than CB Connect (or anything else out there).

Regarding the smaller button, version 3.2 (later this month) will have options for small, medium, large, and x-large login buttons from Facebook. The text is always configurable through language files, and the current size is always 'medium'. Hopefully, with 3.2, the small size will work for you.

As for working in a pop-up, I'm glad you mentioned that CB Facebook works in the pop-up. We'll investigate more how they're doing it and try to get that ability into 3.2. IF we don't have that ability with 3.2, let us know, and we'll get you something to test with shortly after it's out and include that ability in the next release definitely. From what I just looked into, it shouldn't be that difficult, but right now we're just focused on the features we've locked down for 3.2, so don't want to guarantee we can add something else.

Hope this helps, and good luck!

We're excited to get it out. There's a lot of effort going into finalizing it this week and then testing a lot more over the weekend and next week. It's going to be a big release with a lot of new goodies in it :)

Thanks for you patience and interest!
