Topic-icon Unknown URL prompts JFBC Login but FB login doesn't work

Active Subscriptions:

The JFBCLogin on the left hand column of my page works just fine when a user logs in with their FB account. But if a user ends up at a non-existent or registered URL, the login in form opens up. When you click on the FB button the FB login window flashes on the screen and then disappears just like it does when you login from the home page. But the user isn't really logged in. When you go to home page you're still not logged in. The regular CB login works. I can't figure out where to look to correct this.

Spike,
The "Sign In" button that's shown on your login page is not from JFBConnect. I'm not sure what extension is adding that, but that's the problem. You'll need to remove that button. You can always replace it with JFBConnect's Login button if you modify the template file for that login area and add {JFBCLogin}.

Hope that helps, but if you need more help, just let us know.

Thanks,
Alex

Additionally, it looks like sh404SEF is adding it's own Facebook stuff. That should be disabled as well. I don't think it's the cause of the problem, but it doesn't look configured correctly. If you're not using it, please disable their Social Buttons functionality, or whatever it's called.

Thanks for the great support Alex. The problem was the default 404 message file was set to registered so any bad URL was being asked to register instead of just saying the user requested a bad url.

Gotcha. Sounds like you got it all figured out, and glad you found the problem (I wasn't really sure).

Should you run into anything else, you know where to find us :)
