this is annyoing and i think it was different in the previous version i used (march 2009). or am i doing something wrong?

when i login to my site with facebook, it logs me into my joomla account as well. when i then close the browser and open it again, i am not logged in anymore. and worse: i'm even logged out of facebook, although i am normally always logged in on facebook.

that annoying for regular facebook users who now use connect on my site.

anybody any clues?

thanks a lot in adavance,
jeroen

It shouldn't be logging you out of Facebook when you close your browser. That's never been a capability of the software.

We're updating the login routines quite extensively for the new version (due out within a day or so). This may help fix the problem.. However, try recreating this issue on our demo site. It's using 2.1.2 and if we log into Facebook with the "Keep me logged in" box set, go to the demo site and log in there, then close the browser... when we start it back up if we go to Facebook, we're still logged in.

Let us know if you're seeing something different on the demo site, because that is strange.

The next version does handle log-outs better (you can even use any login modules 'logout' button without forcing you out of Facebook!)

Its out now. There was a lot that changed in this release, so please test on a dev site first (always a recommendation with any component).

Enjoy, and let us know how it goes!
