Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the quick reply. We are using JFBConnect with Jomsocial. We're just getting started with all of it and learning as we go. Will you post on this thread or shoot out an e-mail to your list when your update is out or do we need to watch somewhere else for updates?

Thanks!
Marc

Since this is the only thread that's even brought up this issue, we'll definitely post here. You'll need to have an active subscription to JFBConnect to get any updates or support though, which you don't look to have.

We started to look into this today, but didn't make the progress we meant to. Unfortunately, tomorrow, we're attending a Facebook developer conference and won't be looking into it. We're still hoping for a release in the next few days, but it may have to be this weekend or early next week as well.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,

Have you been able to make any progress to resolving the issue re: Facebook connect and Jomsocial registration using the admin approval setting?

Thanks

Rhyn,
We did preliminary investigation this weekend, code development today, and hopefully test with possible release tomorrow. All that looks necessary is an updated JomSocial profile plugin. We're also doing testing with the JomSocial 2.4 RC release that is available, so if any issues come up, that may stall things, but also ensure compatibility when that's out soon.

Thanks,
Alex

Rhyn,
I'll be sending you a PM directly after this with a test release of the 4.0.1 profile plugin for JomSocial. It should correctly detect when a multi-profile is set for Admin Approval and block the user so they can't log in. We're not releasing this to the download area yet as we have little experience or feedback with JomSocial's admin approval setting, and would like your feedback.

Just so you know, with this plugin, the standard Joomla new user emails are still being sent. So, for the new user email, you may want/need to update the text in the language file to let the user know that the user will be moderated. Once approved though, the normal JomSocial "Account Approved" email will be sent.

Beyond that, if you run into any issues, let us know. There's some trickiness that we had to get around in this plugin, and we'll be improving the whole process in the JFBConnect 4.1 release, due later this year, but hopefully, this gets you going now.

Thanks,
Alex
