Hi:

I am wondering whether I understood this feature correctly. If I am logged-into facebook and I open up my website, I should be automatically logged-in with my Joomla credentials if I already have registered in my website and have connected my account with facebook. Right?

Well, it's not working for me. I have deliberately logged out of both facebook and my website. Then I log back into facebook and load my website again. On my website, it shows that I am not logged in. I have to press on the 'facebook connect' icon in order to log in.

Can you shed some light on this issue?

If you want to replicate my issue, please go to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="new159.puxzycat.com">new159.puxzycat.com

Thanks.

Albert

Hi:

Ok, I think I understand the problem now. If I am logged into facebook and I open up my webpage, it doesn't log me in. But when I click on another page or refresh the current page, it logs me in.

Is it possible to fix it so that it logs me in on the first try?

Thanks.

Albert

We've seen this in a few cases and have tried to investigate it further. There seems to be an issue where the FB API doesn't create the session in time for JFBConnect to detect the user is logged in.. hence, why it works on the next page.

We're always looking for ways to optimize our component, and hopefully will come up with an update to fix this problem in all cases.
