Guy,
We're testing some things. This is a difficult issue to track, but we had a different (but similar) case reported regarding logging in using the Canvas views.

No solutions or suggestions yet, but we'll definitely let you know when we find something. Thanks for your patience, and I hope this isn't a critical thing for your site. Inconvenient, yes, but should only affect a select case of user that logs in and out frequently.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,

No it's not critical. It's a pretty neat feature so I look forward to a fix when it's ready :)

Cheers, Guy

Guy,
Very sorry for the delay. We're really not avoiding this. We have a plan for something to test that may fix this how you would like it to work. We've done very little testing with this, but would love your feedback. It's an extremely simple change to make and hopefully will fix up all these issues.

If interested, please edit the /plugins/system/jfbcsystem/jfbcsystem.php file. Around line 199, you'll see:
$subs = "\nFB.Event.subscribe('auth.login', function(response) {jfbc.login.on_login();});";
to the below (changing auth.login to auth.authResponseChange):
$subs = "\nFB.Event.subscribe('auth.authResponseChange', function(response) {jfbc.login.on_login();});";

We came up with this a few days ago, but since it concerns the login functionality (an obviously core/important feature) it's something we really would want to test more before recommending it. However, since you can obviously recreate the issue well and know exactly what you're looking for, your testing and feedback would help us greatly in this case.

Please let us know, and again, sorry for the delays in getting back to this!

Thanks,
Alex

I have the same issue. The problem is people who are already registered to my site using Facebook registrations are trying to register/login again because AUTO LOGIN is not working and they are getting 'Error Occurred' this started as soon as we updated to the latest version.

The site URL is www.bayfashionmag.com

Its really funny, Users cannot see the content that is enabled after log in but they can use the FB Comment feature. The page still shows 'Login with Facebook' but the comments are available as your facebook user. Its very strange. It seems like its partially logged in. I need a fix immediately as its effecting our magazine readership.

Thx
Shankha

I tried this fix and it seems to be working now for me. Atleast it works in Opera on Mac. I will do more testing and let you guys know if it works on other browsers and on Windows too

Shankha,
The Comment box is available to any user that is logged into Facebook.com, regardless of whether they've logged into your site. Facebook makes it so any Facebook users can post a comment to a Facebook comment box.

As for the "Error Occurred" message, you should be getting an error even with the 'old' way. When was that message appearing? Was it in a Joomla system message box on-page or in the Facebook login popup window?

Either way, keep us posted on how the change works. Again, we haven't tested that enough to ensure there won't be any other issues, so please keep an eye on it!

Thanks,
Alex

Update, this still does not work for my site in Chrome. I just came to your site while being logged on to Facebook and it auto logged me in - But on www.bayfashionmag.com, even if you are logged into Facebook and you visit the site, it is NOT logging people in on CHROME Browser in MAC and WINDOWS.

Seems to work on Safari on Mac

If you need access to my admin panel, please ask.

Thx
Shankha
