Hi when activating the automatic signin for Facebook users, users are not logged in when going directly to the frontpage. If I however from here click on any page-link I get signed in. Is this a bug or?

I have the same problem, sort of.

My people only get partially logged in.. the log-in module says I'm logged in, but the other modules say I'm not logged in.

Not only is the above happening, but the users are not finding a one-click experience.. 95% are clicking on the Facebook Connect icon, but then manually creating their registrations. Their activity is not getting displayed inside Facebook.

Morten,
The "Automatically Login Facebook Users" setting has an issue right now with some changes that Facebook recently implemented. We're working on the 4.2 release right now which should properly log the user in on the first page they visit. Until then, in some cases, the user will automatcially logged in on the 2nd page they hit (the first page will set a cookie we need, and the 2nd page JFBConnect detects the cookie and uses it to log them in).

Patrick,
The widgets you show from Facebook are indicating that the user isn't logged into Facebook, not your site. Those modules can show different behavior than what's shown on your site and unfortunately, there's no way to connect the two. It all depends on how the user logs into your site (with a Joomla account only or through Facebook) and if they are or are not logged into Facebook itself in another tab.

For the manual registration that you mention, if you want the 1-click automatic user generation, please set the "User Creation" setting of JFBConnect to "Facebook User Only". That will bypass registration forms, create the user's Joomla account, and log them in immediately. If that's not what you're looking for, just let us know, and we can help further.

Thanks,
Alex

Alex, that is not accurate. Please see screenshot below. As you can see, I am logged into Facebook. I clicked on the "log-in using facebook" button.. it logged me into the Joomla site.. but only part way.. the site says I'm logged in, but the other modules do not think I am logged in and as you can see, I am clearly logged into Facebook.

Patrick,
Not sure why that's happening. I just went to your page while logged into Facebook in another tab. The Facebook modules all showed me as logged in. The SCLogin (properly) showed me as not logged in to your site. I then logged in, and the SCLogin properly showed me as logged in.. the FB widgets all continued to show me logged in.

Can you try with a different Facebook user and see what happens? Possibly with a different browser as well (mainly to clear cache). I used Chrome, like your example above, just so you know.

Finally, the widgets all have a "Sign In" button on them. Can you tell me what happens when you click those?

Thanks,
Alex

When I click on them, a white window pops open momentarily, the module refreshes, but there is no change.

I don't know what it is that I am doing different, but this product is not working for me.

Patrick,
Just looked at your site a little more closely and have a suggestion. In the activity feed module, it asks for the URL you want to use. Instead of using:
www.springportmotorspeedway.com

Change that to:
springportmotorspeedway.com

I think there's a cookie issue going on between the different URLs (www vs non-www) and using just the domain is the proper way to configure that module.

Let me know how that goes!
Alex
