When I login through facebook, works a lot better than Jomsocials :), I have an isssue with staying logged in, I did not enable the auto login, due to a problem with being able to logout.

Also the Status updates are not being updated in facebook, when I change them on Jomsocial.

Scratch the status update, it did update it. So it is just the login time, appears to be cut down to the default session time of 15 mins.

Dan,
Not sure what issue you were having with not being able to logout. Our 4.1.2 release (out yesterday) does have a fix for a logout bug similar to what you mention. However, you need to use a JFBConnect logout button for auto-login and logout functionality to work perfectly. If you're using the logout button from another extension, that may be the problem. We're working on a better solution, but for now, that's the only suggestion.

As for login window, you're correct. After the session timer expires, the user will be automatically logged out. That's how Joomla works, and we can't get around that. The only things we can recommend are: a) Enable auto-login or b) increase the session timeout.

Hope that helps, but if you have any other questions, just let us know. Glad you're happy with JFBConnect, and yes, it's smoother than JomSocial simply because it's what we do day-in and day-out :)

Thanks,
Alex

When I get home I am going to have to do an overhaul of the login/logout system. Basically I want it to be seemless and just not confuseing for people no matter where they login/logout.

I am using Jomsocial and Kunena and I know where to add the logout/login links properly. But I am having a tough time disableing the Joomla Core login/logout and registration. Do you have any suggestions on how to remove the users component from being accessible, even if a user goes to it directly. I had a few issues when I did some .htaccess rewrites.

I have converted all the login/logout links to use the Facebook connect button.

I created a new topic, but it appears that my facebook login button is missing completely. But it is still in the code to be displayed.
