Topic-icon can't make JFBConnect the main Login page from a top menu

Active Subscriptions:

None
I'd like to have my top menu item (login) take the user to the login page of JFBConnect and not the standard joomla logon.

Every time I try to choose JFBConnect as a function for the login menu, it doesn't expand and doesn't allow me to select any other option within JFBConnect and complete the link. I'm forced to choose User->Login (joomla logon).

Is there something missing in my installation?

Dmitri,
JFBConnect doesn't have a login page of it's own that can be set as a menu item since we don't have a normal registration form. Everything starts with the click of the blue "Login With Facebook" button.

What we'd recommend is modifying the User component's login page and adding our Login button. You can do so by adding {JFBCLogin} to the /components/com_user/views/login/tmpl/default_login.php file.

To do so, you should create a template override first, which will make sure your changes remain intact if you ever upgrade Joomla. For more information on template overrides see:

Hope this makes sense, but if you need more information or help, just let us know!
